just looking at some items there and it shows the prices from other websites. Do they order them in from them and send them on from their warehouse or do they just send them direct to you? I might be ordering 2 things so i want to find out.

If you're talking about "marketplace" sellers- payment goes through the amazon website, but you're ordering from a 3rd party.

Is it just as safe as being from the likes of play.com?
would the two items be shipped together or seperately?

Feedback goes with marketplace sellers, if its a third party site advertised along with Amazon prices, its safe enough. I think it depends on the method of shipping or what is being shipped.

A quick google search suggests Expansys sell them or go the eBay route.
