I've never heard of this place before, but for those who don't care for the 20/20, the name is appropriate!

Interesting place, they have a 4.8 out of 5 rating on Facebook and looks like their whole inventory is in a Shop section on their FB page where you can select and then be sent to their website to buy.

Finally I figured out what the 20/20 reminds me of. "Finger", a popsicle introduced in Sweden in 1984. No big hit so gone by 1986.

He's not the only one - I'm quite shure I saw that very same finger as a plastic toy in Amsterdam!

The 20/20 in the advertisement looks good. Well photographed. Looks like a reliable seller.
Price may be a bit steep? Don't know.
