i have

they shipped pretty quickly, when a part was out of stock they alled me and asked if they should hold the whole order, send the rest ,or just cancel the backorderd part

i still got they order only a day later then i otherwise would have

I've ordered a few things off them (for some reason, they seem to stock a few unusual components which are useful for RC products, like chips for LiPo balancers etc). Reasonably quick delivery, low postage charges.

Not sure where they actually are located - although they have offices in Australia, the parts I've ordered had postmarks from Thailand if I recall correctly. Regardless, they seem quite reasonable...

Yep, Ive ordered from their australian office, unfortunately, when a part was out of stock, they just held my order with no communication, until I emailed them, then when they got the part, it took another email to get them to ship it (this one was never replied to, but shipping took place the next day)

All goods ordered through the aussie site come from thailand...

Ordered some bits from Futurelec (aus), they came through to the UK just fine. They have a good stock of otherwise tricky to source bits.
