Can someone more knowledgeable than me check if this website is legit? It seems to be to me, but as I’ve not heard of them it’s worth checking.

Domain registered about a year ago but no reviews, feedback, TrustPilot etc that I can see. (although interestingly the registration entry says "Updated 6 days ago", whatever that means).

Registered address in Denmark but prices in £ and (I think) London phone number.

I suppose if you can pay by CC or PayPal, nothing to lose. Admittedly it doesn't look like the usual scam site. What is the potential saving? I wouldn't, personally, unless the saving was too good to pass up (usually a red flag in itself lol)

Looks quite genuine to me. Seems the Danish version has been around for years, the English site may be newer. Plenty of good reviews here.

Mixed opinions then!
It’s not a big amount I intend to spend and I’ll do it on my credit card if I do so there is some protection. Hmm.

to be fair to them, I hadn't delved deeply enough to discover the parent company which, as above, has excellent reviews on TP! Based on that, I would go for it (with your money lol). Possibly the English version of the site has only just been brought online, hence no feedback.

Domain registered about a year ago but no reviews

It's a three year lease though. Scam sites tend to only register for a year (cos they know they're not going to be around for long).

The company behind RunningXpert.com is:

Løbeshop.dk ApS
Gammel Sellingvej 1
8370 Hadsten
tel. +45 86983614
mail: customerservice@runningxpert.com
CVR: 32277594

The company also runs the webshop Workoutshop.dk, dgi-loebeshop.dk, and a Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian version of RunningXpert.com.

That's on their own site though. They could be lying of course, but it seems legit to me. I expect the parent company would have stood on them quite quickly if the claims weren't true.

Yep. I’m trying to establish before a purchase too. Any news OP?

EDIT. Dropped an email and customer services got back within ten minutes. Hmm

@beagle, didn’t use them in the end as there have ran out of the size I want. Their social media is live and they’re advertising on Insta which seems a good thing.
I think I would have ordered with them, albeit I would only have done so on a credit card or through PayPal.

Cheers Lunge. Yeah. Would be PayPal. Thanks for that!
