UPDATE -

I escalated this to paypal and today the case ran out and they refunded me, which is double nice as it is my birthday!!!

Unfortunately, the order was for 2 lots (50 black buttons and 11 buttons) and I only claimed for the 50 buttons, but I'm still happy with the result. A lot better than being totally scammed. I got £116 back.

I am using Smallcab in France for arcade parts now. They seem to be well stocked all the time and deliver within 3-5 days.

great news, always pay via paypal or a credit card folks, they protect you a lot more than direct bank transactions

Oh no - what a shame! I was going to order some new buttons and sticks today and was surprised when the site was down (thought it was our work IT blocking sites…), only to discover this thread.

Gutted thay AWUK ended this way, they've been my go to place for many years. What a way to lose years of goodwill.

Hope everyone gets their cash back.

For anyone looking for an alternative following AWUK disappearing, we have just launched our online store and are looking to keep expanding our stock with each order we do.

At the minute we have some of the basic Sanwa and Seimitsu parts in the most obvious colours. And we have some t-molding on it's way to us. We have listed all the available colours for the parts that we are stocking though, so please use the stock notifier boxes so that we know what colours people want and we will make sure we include them in our next order with our supplier in Japan.

We are also talking to a number of other suppliers and manufacturers to expand the range, so keep an eye out for more brands appearing in the store soon.

Maybe I read it wrong and it was x1000 or something. Its a filed report on Companies House.

My reading of it is he had £33k liabilities (at least that's what's been declared), but there's £46k in the Directors loan account. So enough to cover the debts, unless that money has already been taken and spent.
