As ever avoid any sites promoted on social media.
But the big hint is.
gooutdoors-SALE-SHOP.
Any UK retailer has a clearance section on their main site.
To be fair no consumer rights issue though.

I was going to say that the headline offers did not look that unusual. Such as spend £80 get £10 off, or free shipping for orders over £39.Pollycat said:Similar stories about Mountain Warehouse a few weeks ago.

I've never seen brands like Berghaus and Merrell with 80% to 85% off.Albermarle said:

That would be enough to make me suspicious (assuming that something advertised on social media hadn't made me suspicious already).

I've found out this is the work of the big scammer operating at the moment called " Honest Concept Trading " based in Hong Kong. They have loads of genuine retailers websites copied and send out crazy cheap offers .0
