also does anyone know if this online store is ok?

First one has no address or phone number so I wouldn't touch them with a bargepole.
Second has no phone number so I wouldn't use them.
Neither accept Paypal which for me is a bad sign.

So personally I would stick to the shops I know.

Odd though your first two posts are asking about websites. Wouldn't be a shady type would you?

Saw jensonsuk come up in searches the other day and wondered about it myself.

jensonsuk.com registered to an address in Southport. A simple looking semi and the owner himself may be the person Street View is showing . It's under Rassad Ltd which is also based in Southport, but shows as a dissolved company.

That's just on domain names though. Whoever runs the site could in theory be someone entirely different.

Seems to bear no relation to jensonusa.com. Also they are Jenson, not Jensons, and they sell decent bike gear, not a random bunch of tat with generic descriptions all with the variation of things similar to this...

"[insert store name] are proud to stock the brilliant [insert product]

With so many available recently, it is good to have a name you can trust. The [insert product] is certainly that and will be a excellent acquisition.

For this reduced price, the [insert product] comes widely respected and is a regular choice with many people. [insert product manufacturer] have added some nice touches and this results in great value for money."

Funny, the descriptions match on other sites too, e.g. http://www.thebicyclestore.net

The 'click for details' on secure payments doesn't return details so that's not very convincing.

Could be these are generic web store packages or something like that. Whether they actually tie into a genuine store somewhere along the line I don't know.

Anyway, site looks rubbish, security looks unconvincing, no contact details, no company name behind it other than the domain owner (which is a dissolved company), products are a dubious mix, as are prices.

Judge for yourself, but my barge pole won't go near it.

Jensons link eventually leads to this page

That is one seriously sketchy looking site, I wouldn't even throw a pound at it to test it.

I'm sure that even means something to somebody.

Odd that different details come up in different places.

Try http://whois.domaintools.com/jensonsuk.com

Won't post the whole details here as there's a personal address and number in there.

The 'owner' doesn't seem top exist or be a registered company anyway.

Anyway whatever, still wouldn't use them based on what I said in my first post.
