Sale links of London...

Anyone used this site before? They have what appear to be good prices. Some of the the comments seem a bit odd:

I just received my bracelet, and it is wonderful! I'm going to order again from you. You did a good job.

I have received my order and I must say I am highly delighted with it. The bracelet is so comfortable and beautiful. I will tell everyone where I get it from, hope you do more business from everywhere. Thanks again from a very satisfied customer.

    Not sure about this one ?!? I've just been on the site and had a look and it seems OK. The only thing i always check is to see if they have a UK contact phone number and in this case it doesn't have any phone numbers at all so i would be a little bit cautious as to the authenticity of the stuff they are selling and where it's actually coming from.

    I had a similar situation with some Disney dvd's i bought from a site with a .co.uk website. They were actually based in Thailand and were fake. When i had a proper look they too didn't have a UK contact number in fact they didn't have a contact phone number at all !!!

    My advice is just be careful !!
  • I agree, weird that you can only contact them by email. Shame if it isn't real as it looks like a good site!

    That site is selling fakes.

    Just look at the genuine site and compare the prices http://www.linksoflondon.com

    The first item on the fake site sweetie earings £33.99, on real site £95.

    liam is right, these are fakes. The bizarrely worded comments suggest it's a chinese site. I'd steer well clear.

    Their items are shipped by EMS which is a Chinese courier/postal service.
  • Do not order, it is a def fake site. My husband did some sort of search on the host site and it goes cold somewhere in China. I work at LHR T5, and i spoke to the Links people in the terminal. They are aware of the site but because it is hosted outside of the country they cannot do anything about it. Cazza
