Is this suspiciously cheap? (merrell coat)

this one

I was half thinking of getting a merrell because they are supposed to be both warm and waterproof, and this seems to be about 80-90 pounds cheaper than other merrell coats on different sites.

Maybe it is the colour that hasn't been very popular and they are selling slowly.
I have never bought from that site before, however I managed to get several half-priced Merrells last year from different retailers, and finally decided on the colour I wanted.

I got a similar Merrel coat last year for about that price. I think that company may be discounting as they only have the green one so may be the last of their stock. I love my coat BTW.

The old saying is that if its too good to be true, then it probably is.

Personally, I don't have £100 to waste, so if I wouldn't risk it and would get one from a reputable site.

Is that not a reputable site? it looks it! Confused

True about the colour ygritte. Now I've seen that site I certainly wouldn't pay £190 on the merrell's own site.

They only have a PO BOx though?

They have over 200 reviews here. I suspect they are legit as otherwise would have loads of negative reviews saying people didn't receive items, etc.

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 28/10/2013 19:41

Looks legit to me.Most places are cheaper than Merrell themselves,they just happen to be even cheaper!I've seen the black for £90-£100 aswell.

Annoyingly,that's cheaper than the Merrell Geraldine I've ordered!!!

Anyway,I wouldn't say the price is due to the colour,it seems the hardest colour to get hold of actually.Peppercorn seems easiest and cheapest (and trickiest!)

While on the subject of the colour...can anyone confirm what the Conifer is like in real life?I ordered the Geraldine in Conifer but on my screen it looks a nice,just slightly tealy turquoisey,blue!

Well, I ordered a coat. IN the end, not the one I linked to. But again, cheaper than I've seen elsewhere. I'll let you know by the end of the week if it arrives!
