I also placed and order with Appleimports.co.uk, got the same promises of it being delivered but that they were having problems with suppliers. Now they do not respond to any contact and I am about to contact my credit card company.
Interestingly, if you do a traceroute on the domain, it resolves to the IP address 66.139.79.35, relating to a win.psifx.net. If you then ping www.psifx.net, it resolves to the same address.
Perhaps its worth contacting this website and asking about this other site that appears to be hosted on their server. psifx.net claims to be a business serving the education sector, it would seem slightly dodgy for them to be hosting/running an apparently fraudulent company as well.
