Is this site safe? Cheap authentic timberlands?

The brand/product name in a domain name should raise a red flag, this is generally not permitted for authorized dealers.

The site is less than 1 month old, that is a very bad sign. The word would not be out yet...

The Florida address used i the domain name registration is odd for a UK site, Google maps is completely baffled by the address, odds are it's a fake address made by a Chinese Counterfeit site operator.

Other sites using that same template:

timberlandportugal2013.com
timberlanditalia1918.com
timberlandnederlandsale.nl
timberlandi.com

Their Contact page shows a disposible AirJordan Gmail address, no identifying street address or phone number.

Bad Bad...

The 3 basic tests you can make of an online store.

1) Check the domain name whois owner information, many of the Chinese counterfeit sites will be immediately exposed, (anything from China would be fakes.)

The Contact US page only shows a disposable Air
2) Test 2: check the Contact Us page, if there is no identifying phone# or address forget it, imagine how easily an email alone can be ignored.

3) Search the web for complaints, try Googling: "thesite.com" scam, to see if it's been submitted to fraud site registries, a site under 3 months old may not yet be included even it deserving.
