assets and liabilities about £161k, it's not what I would regard as needing a secure warehouse.

Some here probably have more toys in their shed :-)

Its almost certainly nothing more than a website that takes a 1%
commission on tools warehoused and sold by other suppliers.

Not tried them personally, but if you are paying with a cc, then you
have some protection from the cc company anyway, should it all go pear
shaped.

I ordered a Panasonic drill / impact driver from them a couple of years
ago. It arrived the next day with no problems.

My main concern was warranty returns.

As I understand it your contract is with the retailer.

FTAOD:

yes, your contract is with the retailer and you have various rights
under the law against the retailer; but

a warranty is something over and above your legal rights against the
retailer that a manufacturer may - or may not - give you.

I ordered a makita tool from the 5 years ago, no problems, but haven't
ordered from them again, which implies they once did well in a price
comparison search, but no longer do ...

Yup, there is no legal requirement for the manufacturer to give you a
warranty directly (they have no contract with you), however I have noted
that many of the higher end brands will take on the responsibility from
the retailer - presumably to not only protect their brand reputation,
but also incentivise the retailers into stocking and promoting their
products.
