This company I have found seems to have some good products small and large, ex-display, returns and so on. I probably wouldn't be interested in the pallets (yet), or products they sell "as is- spares", but there are some products that seem good. Have any forum members used this company? What have your experiences been? http://www.discounthouse.co.uk

On WhoIS http://www.who.is/whois-uk/ip-addres...nthouse.co.uk/
they seem to be legit, but I don't know enough to look for signs of a scammer.

My contacts so far have been through E-mail and they have answered my questions quickly enough, but the reply E-mails do not use very good english so this has me a little worried.

A couple of E-mails, (copied verbatum)

Hi

Thanks for contacting us. The stock you mentioned would be suitable to be shipped our by the couriers and
in our view you will be able to get the more discounted price then us as the companies quotes for the
UK based companies charge more then customer abroad. We would be more affordable in terms of containers
shipping as we get good rates for such.
Let us know if you have any further query.

Don't know how legit this company is but their prices are made up!

For example:

Zennox DV7000 Digital Camcorder ---------- RRP 179.99 ------- you pay ----- £49.50

No way it can be sold for 179.99.

Not even 100 pounds.

The price you're looking for to sold is £49.50, if you're lucky.

Don't want to say anything bad about them, just those numbers doesn't add up. Maybe I was just un-lucky...

Thank you for the quick advice. You guys in the UK are truly blessed to be able to get some great prices on electronics, over here for example the least expensive video cameras start at 135 Euros, around 107 Pounds. I wasn't truly interested in this product anyways, there are some others that have a better price range. You have to understand that I am not really interested in selling to the UK market, the electronics market there is saturated and prices are low, so I am comparing the prices for import to the Greek marketplace. My main concern is if the company is trustworthy, will they deliver the products? That way I can arrange shipping with one of the discount courier brokers, I am currently looking at Parcel2Go.

Thanks for the advice.
