I'm thinking about a titanium stem, and these folks came up in the search. Good price. Good company? Anyone bought from them?

Never heard of them or seen their stuff anywhere. I cannot seem to find info on them as well other than a generic website and an eBay listing. I don't love companies that replace "C" with "K" it just looks stupid but I cannot find info on them so who knows if it is something to add to the fire or just they are a legit business and they picked a dumb spelling and need to get themselves out there to give them legitimacy.

Their Facebook page says they are in Everett, WA, but no address or other contact information. A few grammar mistakes on the website. All warranty claims handled by email.
More importantly, I have a difficult time believing they can offer a ti stem at nearly 1/3 the price you would pay for something like a Lynskey. At least not a high quality one. Stem failure can be catastrophic. What are your medical insurance deductible and co-pay?
