What do you think of this website?

I was strolling through gumtree, when I came accross a link to this website:

http://e-electro.co.uk/home

Prices to me look cheaper than high street prices but not that cheap to make it obvious they are scammers. Im not sure, I cant find any tell tell signs other than the fact that they accept paypal? even this is not a sign!

    Cannot get the page to load properly in FF or IE, I guess it uses pop-ups?

    Hmm, no contact detail - phone number / email?

    Very few products.

    Not sure how payment would be made.
