DVD scam site or not?

[SmqSub]

Hi all,
Hope I've posted this in the right forum.
I've bought some dvd's from this site for crimbo presents.

http://wedelights.co.uk/

Payed for them with paypal.
Something about it doesn't feel right.
I know you guys are experts at sniffing these things out.
What do you think?

Appreciate your input

Hayden Panettiere is an American actress and singer.

If you do receive anything it will not be genuine mate, and they are charging gen prices. Plus the website looks a right POS.

bugger all stock - astronomical prices well, maybe not but more expensive than UK prices anyway - no blu ray titles.

If not an outright scam they are bound to be pirate copies and bad ones at that.

No worries matey you'll be fine with PayPal, just stick in a dispute claim. They must be pretty good with SEO to get it ranked that high!

What I always do with any website I am unsure of is stick the name into Google and then click "discussions" on the left hand side bar, usually you will find some info. Other than that do a WHOIS on the site then copy the address into Google, again there will probably be someone discussing the address. If the website is WHOIS protected then avoid it completely.

You could be right there buddy, I did some reading and the previous site they had and it looks like they did send some out but qual was crap, as can be expected.

I know jumped the gun stupidly.
Only went for it because the jungle book is hard to find at the moment.

And they quote less than 7 days delivery. Grrrr
