I was looking for a Jacket for the better half and came across this web site
http://www.northfacesaleoutlet.com/
It seems good value but is it genuine North Face gear ?
What do you think?

suspect.. the privacy page just sounds like spam blurb..and a look at who is shows the site as chinese, then i t also refers to american acts that have nothing to do with secure payments.. and 99.9% hacker safe..

Dodgy. The domain was registered in China about a month ago.

I'd be seriously careful about it - the site has no contact telephone numbers or address, and their grasp of the English language isn't too hot on their FAQ pages. Came across a site exhibiting exactly the same signs when looking for software (Office 2007 - it's the first sponsored link that comes up in Google) and further investigation showed it to be selling counterfeit software. In that particular case Microsoft came good by replacing the counterfeit goods with proper software, but I'm not sure The North Face would be quite so generous.

I picked up a North Face softshell in Shanghai for £19. It certainly isn't authentic, but it's a very good jacket. I'd pay cash on the spot, but wouldn't trust this website with my plastic, no sir-eee.

What's the old rule ? If it looks too good to be true, then it almost certainly is

pam w, they certainly do. Difficult to shut them down too. Big thread about the software website I mentioned above on avforums.com, with many people forking out cash.

Looks like a similar set up to that from which I got a really good deal on my Spyder jacket a few years back.....

my personal favourites from the FAQs:
"Q: Do dropshipping,donot you?"
"however for legal reasons we must say that some goods can and are factory variants.Only by this,you can enjoy the perfect nike shoes" - think they missed this occurance of nike shoes when doing the find and replace to change to North Face.
"We accept returns or exchanges on condition that fashion damages" - what?
Absolutely, defintitely, 100% dodgy!

No I think 'double posting' was a move last seen in the wrestling ring in the 70's
