    Has anyone ever bought off of either of these sites? Are they legit?

    Both Chinese as I expected, I would also guess they are selling fakes (which can be seized by customs).

    If it is too cheap to be true it probably is fakes, uggs are very popular to counterfeit, as are those GHD straighteners.

    Avoid like the plague.

    And just to show people how to check sites, use a WhoIs search like http://whois.domaintools.com/ to check out a website's registration. If a site is not registered in the country that it pertains to, then it's more than likely not legitimate.

    For Ugg boots, UggAustralia (the official site) has a site checker, so you can see if a website is an official reseller or not. http://www.uggaustralia.com/counterfeit.aspx
    In the case of UGGS-IRELAND.COM, it would appear to be fake, but even without this check I would agree 100% with rubadub's post, and believe that this is a seller of fakes, and a complete scam.

    The URL would imply (without needing to do a whois search) that both sites are not legit.

    There is a list of authorised resellers of the genuine copyrighted Ugg product on the Ugg webpage.

    I cant bet you any money (without checking it) that a site like "cheapuggbootsinireland.net" is not on the list :P

    There are no tangible contact details on either website.

    All previous posters points are also valid

    Looks like a scam, smells like one ... probably is one :)
