Has anyone ordered dice from Chessex?
I was kind of surprised that this long standing institution of the hobby has such a sparse "order" page. They mention that you can pay via paypal, but the address you need to use is blank.
I think I'd like to get them from Chessex as you have the option of getting a d3 and d5 in a d6 and d10 shape, but just wanted to check how others might have fared with their ordering process.

I looked at their order page and ended up not ordering there for much the same reason you cited. The page was just too spartan and I like to be able to see pictures of the dice before I order.

Re: Has anyone ordered dice from Chessex?
Chessex is usually the first place I'll check at conventions for dice (unless I just happen to stumble on the Crystal Caste or GameScience booths before I find them), but the LAST place I'd order from online (and our game store has had problems ordering from them in the past due to minimum quantity requirements for vendors).
