Is this site genuine?

Hi, has anyone used Barbourjacketsukoutlet.com before? My partner has seen a jacket on that site she likes but it is not listed as authorised on the Barbour website, unfortunately the jacket is not on their website or I would get it from them. It is a 'liberty cotton touch grace wmaterproof jacket' many thanks.

    If it's not listed on Barbour's own website as an authorised stockist then I personally would not be using the site. It's not a bargain if you order a jacket, the jacket never turns up and then you are out of pocket because you have authorised them to take money from your account. The fact that it is not authorised by Barbour themselves is a fairly significant warning sign I would have thought.

    1) no listed address or phone number, which a UK based site must provide on their website
    2) their TOS http://www.barbourjacketsukoutlet.com/conditions.html use american words (utilization,unauthorized,attorneys)
    3) email is a gmail free email address
    4) domain registered in China, so most likely counterfeit goods

    My Avast antivirus blocked a Trojan Horse when I tried to visit that website.
