I'm considering buying a pair of single pandent Flos Fucsia glass cone lamps.
Is anybody familiar with the website:
http://www.lightinitaly.com
?
They have the single Flos Fucsia for $130 each. This is exceptionally lower than I find them elsewhere, where they sell between $190 and $299.
Personally, I prefer the FontanaArte flute 1, but my wife prefers the Flos. Because I cannot find the FontanaArte for less than $399, I'm resigned to the fact that we will be going with the Flos.
Has anyone done business with lightinitaly.com ?
Feedback on this vendor would be helpful and appreciated.
Thank you.

I did it...
I went ahead and purchased them through the site. They are listed as a vendor site on Amazon, but nobody has yet reviewed them. I will review them there, and as well, I will post a comment here as to the quality of the experience.

From Amazon's website profile- The phone number listed is disconnected. The email address is a dead email address. Attempted to contact them through the website's contact form recieves no response. When you enter a credit card number, when attempting to purchase, it gives no receipt, either on screen or via email. Either the site is a phishing site to steal credit card numbers, or the company has gone out of business and the hosting provider just hasn't taken the site down yet. I looked up the owner of the domain on NetworkSolution's WHOIS database. When I called the number listed as the owner of the site (different from the number listed on Amazon), as soon as I spoke in English, they hung-up on me.
Though nothing from them has been charged to my credit card, I'm afraid I will now have to cancel that card. What a pain in the ass.
DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE.

The company was having problems with their website. Orders were not submitting. I spoke to my credit card company. The vendor never charged me for the order. After putting through the order a second time, It processed properly. However, both the phone number and the email address listed on their Amazon profile page are both out-of-date/disconnected, so I don't think my initial conclusions were out of line.
The verdict is still out. I will update again when the order ships and delivers, or any other issues that come up.

They're Here
The lights arrived almost exactly three months from the day they were ordered. They look great, but in the future, I'd just assume pay the extra hundred dollars each and buy them here.
After finding the phone number through their domain name ownership, nobody there spoke English, and I don't speak Italian. Fortunately for me my boss is Italian. He called them several times for me (nice to have a boss that's willing to do that), and one of the things he found out from them is, although they have a website, the company doesn't have a computer! They keep all their records on paper. All of their orders, etc. Even if you call and ask for the status of your order, their policy is that they allow 72 hrs. to respond with your order status!!!
Eventually I got my lamps. I've related this story to several other people who have had experience ordering from Italy (including my Italian boss) and they all say, if it's coming from Italy, expect it to be months late. That's the way they do business.
