Has anyone heard of this site 20North Online Shopping India - Buy Electronics,Apparel,Computers,Books,DVDs & more at Best Prices in India. It sells electronics and Movies among other things. It also ships direct to home. The prices are also customs duty included. Is it safe to buy electronics from there if anybody has a prior experience??
Another indian ecommerce site

Looks like a cool site.. Lets see of there are users who have dealt with the site. 
The site is similar to our very own KMD's yet-to-be-launched todphod.com. The site is also having almost every item. And the prices are very competitive. KMD needs to hurry with todphod.com

The site seems unresponsive, only the main page opens.
Probably problems at your end. Site works absolutely fine. Except that its slowww..Darthcoder said:
