After a bit of googeling it's not a UK site (it's french with unknown owners) seems a bit fishy but if you wana take a punt pay on a credit card and ur covered if it is a scam site. Although you may just end up with counterfeit goods.

Many bike items sold in the UK are a lot more expensive than buying from Europe.

Some recent examples, I ordered GIVI rails via my dealer, cost a shade over £50 - the UK RRP. Fortunately (for me) Givi got themselves into a right pickle supplying the part and short supplied their UK subsidiary. An Italian web based supplier had them for £34 delivered to the UK. (This isn't old stock, the item had just been released).
My Interphone bluetooth headset cost me less from Germany than my dealers' cost price.
Every item I was looking at was cheaper buying from another country.

I think a number of European suppliers have recognised this and are targeting the UK market.

So Steve. 
Would YOU try them. 
I looked on moto.de and as you say prices are cheaper. Same goes for the stand I bought.

Forgot about this post!!!!

I have recently ordered some saddle bags Givi WP405 Waterproof from them and it was delivered within 3 days via recorded delivery. The product was perfectly boxed and delivered by ADP. Item was as described on their website. The company is based in Nice/France and I must say their customer service is excellent. (so far)

The call was answered straightaway by a bird with a nice and charming French accent.

I would recommend anyone to check with them if the goods are currently in stock before placing an order. Some popular items are not always available. They will have to order it from the manufacturer and then send it to the UK. This might take a week or so. If you are in a hurry then you will probably be better off to buy it from a UK distributor.

Otherwise I've saved £20 on the GIVI saddle bags. I am just about to order some Furygan winter gloves with them again. Will see...
