Is 'wowcamera' a legit site?

I need a new phone ASAP as my old pixel 3 has now died a death, I am saving the pennies though and this is the cheapest I could find the Pixel wowcamera.com/google-pixel-5-5g-128gb-8gb-ram-single-sim-unlocked-for-all-uk-networks--just-black.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwy42FBhB2EiwAJY0yQj6maWlSweKM71bWHoiL97I6FRYCF-0-fCSrjvLQmxn6mTju01QdcRoCk5QQAvD_BwE

It's on trustpilot, topcashback and Quidco....

I think you just need to be opened eyed to a few things I've gathered from the review sites. 

1. The product might not be shipped from the UK and could be from Europe meaning longer delivery and more difficult for the returns.
2. The company is not a UK company, some people saying it is Hong Kong based but trading in Europe.
3. Some people claimed they got "grey imports" ie products not originally destined for UK market.

Hard to say, I do get worried when just one company is showing a product at such a low price compared to others. As said above, using a credit card for the purchase is probably the best thing to get your Section 75 protection.

No, I would probably use a different product if it was spam as no one seems to like the pixel other than me 😂

I will probably end up just splashing out and getting it full price from play store, as someone else says, this site looks like it’s not UK based and I get chronic anxiety about things going wrong,

Bought a couple of phones from them.

You can get the same phone from Three for £559 (the price adjusts in the basket) should you prefer to play safe. Includes a £10 add on but comes unlocked.

I purchased an LG 5G phone from them.
On their website, it says open to all UK networks.
They sent the phone but it wasn't compatible with the UK network.
LG confirmed that the phone is not a UK phone.
So be careful, they might send you something which is not compatible here.
Also, their base is in Hong Kong and it would impossible to implement UK laws.
