Is it safe to order from MAC?

[Elcoholic]

I know many people who have orderd from MAC directly (incl. this site ofcourse). Its just alot of hassle with the order form and you have to give a back-up list so you never know if your going to get what you ordered or if you'll get alot of backup titles. They do deliver but it can also take a while before they post it and IF you have a problem its a hassle to get it resolved since they hardly speak english (maybe they have improved by now, I don't know). Also with large orders expect extra import taxes and you might need some forms from them to show the real value. I don't think its any more illegal now than before the fx bust so I don't think you'll have to worry about getting busted or something.

All in all, alot more work than ordering from a US/CAN. based seller.
