It's interesting that you were able to purchase onesy-twoseys from them. 
I have typically ignored sites that present themselves in that manner due 
to an impression that (a) they don't really have many of the items (but 
"they can get them") and (b) even if they do, the price is intended for 
commercial customers who don't mind paying 10x what it's worth to a 
hobbyist.

How quickly did you get a response?  What was pricing and delivery like?
