I've been looking for a new gortex layer and found some cheap ones on this site but the English and Photoshop skills make we wary. Anyone used this or thoughts?

"Please be informed that we can only ship your order by ZIP CODE address"

Hmmm... one of those "not in the UK, but using a UK URL" companies. Can't find a physical address.

I'd avoid.

Probably fakes with all those massive 'discounts' on major brands.

The quality of the English is fairly poor and no physical address or telephone number. In fact I didn't even see an email address.

the streetview on the postcode derived above doesn't inspire confidence either:

I’ve just ran through the purchase process with dummy data and the checkout is asking for credit card details over a non-secure connection (no SSL cert). I’d recommend you do not make a purchase through that site.

I’m a developer who mainly works with ecommerce and would stay well clear as a customer. It may be legit but too many red flags for me and that credit card form is very bad practice.

Would any cash you'd send them go into a hedge fund?
