Prices from twelvesouth.com; the store's price at checkout is the one that counts. Photos: Twelve South.
Is Twelve South legit?
Short answer: yes, Twelve South is a real store, and our score is 3.6 out of 5. The main caveat: reports of products failing within months.
It sells bluetooth adapters, stands, chargers, desk pads and cases through its own website, twelvesouth.com. Independent reviews are still scarce, so judge it mainly on its policies. Returns: 30-day returns.
Our take: legitimate, but read the downsides below before you buy.
