    Has anyone ever used this website. I think it looks a bit too good to be true to be honest.

    The only certified online sellers are listed on the CL website here. Click E-Commerce Locator under store locator.


    If sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

    Have a look at the contact us page. No address and the english is appalling. Definite scam. Most likely fakes but could be worse.

    Without even looking at that site I can tell you straight off it is a scam.

    As Twee posted, the only official sellers (both online and in-store) are listing on the Christian Louboutin official website.

    Another good website to check is The Purse Forum - Christian Louboutin the posters there really know their stuff about designer items and can tell between false and genuine items.

    Just use your common sense. If it looks too good to be true, then it probably is.

    Other pointers to note in future include:

    (1) Poor quality website design (including bad graphics)

    (2) Poor English

    (3) When you click on Contact Us, you are given no physical address, just an email form. Any half-way reputable business provides physical contact details.

    AND LASTLY - using whois.net (an directory for registered owners of websites) - we can see that the owner is from the US, but uses a Hotmail email address. Not a good sign. Often these businesses are registered from China

    All you have to do is go to the CL website:

    www.christianlouboutin.com

    The only valid online retailers are those listed there, e.g. Net-A-Porter, Neiman Marcus, SAKS, etc.

    Also as a general rule any website that contains the words

    *cheap
    *real
    *genuine
    *bargain
    *budget

    and the designers name is almost certainly a fake.

    This is definitely a scam just have a look at the website compared to the official one. I would steer clear.

    Hi Guys, anyone know anything about this site?

    Cant find any reports good bad or indifferent. The prices of the Jimmy Choos reassure me as I've bought the real thing in Discount outlets for that sort of price, but the Louboutins seem crazy cheap?

    Please say its ok! I want my shoes!!!

    IS :)
