Yeah, I'm a bit leery of giving that site my Credit Card info. If they accepted PayPal, I would have felt better and probably would have placed an ordered as it would have been an extra level of protection. As it is, I just get a bad feeling.  :-\

The cheapest you can find all the minis on eBay is about $9 a pop including shipping, and that's on sale.

Just tried ordering the Triceratops, Basilosaurus and Chungkingosaurus from Engtaobao, after waiting the twelve hours they said it would take they sent me an email telling me they were out of stock and that I would get a full refund. Just a warning to anybody looking into buying from there, I'm going to wait a while and try again, hopefully with more success.

Thanks,
