What ‘Caveat Emptor’ means is ‘let the buyer beware’ and it is one of the reasons (together with ‘prenuptial agreement’ and a few other handy legal phrases) why there are very few poor lawyers in the world!
As far as we are concerned, it is only relevant because we would like you to know that we do not (cannot!) check the ‘bona fides’ (more of that Welsh stuff) of all the people and organisations whose websites are listed in our directory.
The fact that someone has a smart website does not mean that they have the moral scruples of Mother Teresa - nor, to be fair, those of Attila the Hun! (To be absolutely fair, we don’t believe either of those people had a website, so you can disregard that bit.)
Our advice then, like that of your old headmaster at Eaton or Harrow (OK, the local comprehensive) is ‘do your homework’ (or your ‘prep’, even) especially if there is hard-earned money involved! Check websites out carefully, and look out for physical address locations, user comments, feedback and personal recommendations.
Happy surfing!
