Notes on ordering: Some foreign suppliers will use within their adverts ' UK supplier or UK warehouse. Majority of the time this is not the case as it is most likely an office or residence with low overheads based within the UK and the order will still take up to 31 days to get to you, if it gets to you? The order is generated via the selling agent to the office and sent  to the country of origin. This is poor business practice and dishonest to British customers and one will also suspect from this, a form of corruption may be in operation.

Another point: read the adverts carefully, some will suggest and show images of sets, it is common to only receive 1 item from the set, or the wrong item that appears within the image, (if dealing with the likes of some Eastern countries - the advert can be misinterpreted or misleading, as different trading laws may be more acceptable and operate within the country in question) - If there is a set mentioned and QTY = 1 usually it means eg. 1 item from a set of eg. 4. This has been the case on websites such as for the likes of 'Wish' and sometimes eBay', Amazon, dealing with foreign businesses. Use Caution as many foreign countries understand by the returning of products can prove as more expensive than the item purchased; as to include initial puchase costs and delivery on top to return. They expect you to not dispute the discrepancy. One ends up with paying twice as much more, epecially on a return as  additional costs, taxes and not forgetting your time and effort. (ref: via personal experiences). If in doubt, clarify your order before purchase via the supplier, get it in writing, as you will need this as a form of proof if the transaction is not satisfactory to your expectations. Shop around, one advises to buy British where possible and to always check origin. In some cases it does make sense to pay a higher mark up at times to the UK and it may benefit than relying on a  foreign retailer, if registered. UK  purchases outlets are more accessible most of the time and one will not have to travel too far to deal with the supplier; if required and we do have Fair Trading practices and laws to protect us as the consumer, well, most of the time....
Warning to purchasing from Eastern Countries.
