I'm not familiar with that brand, but the description makes it sound like a decent instrument (but then, you can only trust the store's description so far...)

When ordering on-line shipping (especially international shipping) and return policies are always something to be aware of.
Since both the sites you linked to have prices listed in £, I assume you are somewhere in the UK?

If you give us a better idea where you are, someone might know of a local shop that you could check out.

The specs all read very good. That's a lot of money in Pounds Sterling, but the features command the price. All solid woods.

I compare that to Breedlove on this side of the Pond, and they are very nice. I've had Saturns before, but not this new age version. :D

Sorry, I haven't dealt with them. You'll likely have to wait for someone in the UK or EU to answer, I suspect.

My gut feeling is that it's safer to deal with a place that has an actual store in addition to their web site, rather than a place that is only a web site.

Though, I prefer to buy in person whenever possible. Sometimes local shops will price match well known web stores.

I think you might need to have some patience.
Most members are not on the site every day.

By the way, here is a site of a store in France that has the Breedlove guitars that BlueJay was mentioning.

Again, I don't know anything about the company, but they are closer to where you live.

And more to the point, it may be that no one here has used either of the "webstores" you've asked about. Hopefully, though, someone has.

Peace

I also prefer to buy in a store and try out several guitars.

I don't know about those stores. Thomann is very famous and some friends bought there. You can consult the price in euros and with your VAT.
