Yup. Raw JSON.
Genuinely not sure what to do next ...
Edit
OK, clicked on the "cart" button, and it's there, so I go through the process to check-out. The field for "State/Province" won't let me put more than three characters, and my "Province" has 6 characters.
When filling in the CC details it asks for "State", and offers only US States, even though it knows it's shipping to the UK.
Edit 2:
And I won't begin to describe the frustration in trying to create a login ... three attempts, rejecting a password that I'd copy/pasted so I know it was right. An exercise in pure frustration.
The site looks fabulous ... very glossy. My experience in using it has been unremmittingly horrible.
