In the past I have posted links to Lighting-Direct's product website and have ordered products from them. I am therefore posting a note of caution.
Lighting-Direct seem to be in some trouble and appear to have ceased trading.
In July I placed an order with Lighting-Direct (paid with PayPal) with a delivery estimate of 5-10 days. After 3 weeks the products had not arrived and I was advised that I could expect them 'next week'.
Next week came and went and after several (unreturned) emails and phone calls I cancelled the order.
Since then I have been trying to get my money back (refund though PayPal). Nothing has happened and the telephone answerphone says the offices are "temporarily closed". All emails sent to the company are bounced back.
A thread on MoneySaving Expert indicates that I am not alone.
Trading Standards have been alerted.
I advise you not to place orders with them. It is still possible to place orders on their website (and they will take your money) but it would seem that you will not see the goods or your money again.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
