Mad Amusements can be hot and cold as far as overseas customers are concerned. I'd recommend a quick google search of them before ordering.
+1. I'm sure you'll get someone who'll tell you they are fine, but do as Crashramp suggests and Google them. Where there's smoke there's fire, and there's a massive amount of smoke out there on this one.
+2. Speaking from personal experience I would do my best to avoid MAD Amusements at all costs.
Definitely get Cliffy protectors as Crashramp mentioned.
