HI. This site (in respect of prices) "looks to good to be true" - is it ? Is it a scam site ? Anyone have any factual information ?

Many thanks,

Looks a bit dodgy to me, I tried an independent search on Gocistore and noted that the 'contact us' button does not work on the site. Best avoid unless someone knows better.

The OP asked for factual information not opinion. I feel like encouraging him and wait and see if he gets burned :-) The domain name was registered on the 27th of February. Very credible site :lol: :lol: :lol:

The contact details and about us section provide no address details. Stay well clear.

Where do you check when the domain was registered?
