It's a scam. It has all the telltale signs:

- The "business" doesn't have a physical address or really any kind of information listed

- It's using a generic online store website template

- The prices are ridiculously reduced. To good to be true cheap

- Everything is in stock and can be ordered in any possible combination

 

I've seen a few of these for other products as well. Things like sunglasses for example.

I'd say stay away from it! And maybe reach out to the real theskylineshed and let them know this exists. I doubt there is much they can do about it, but still.

 

I don't know if they would actually take your money if you ordered something. Or whether it is just for collecting credit card details to scam otherwise. I'm not game or stupid enough to try it.

I added something to the cart and clicked 'check out' and none of the payment options in the footer (ie those with buyer protection) were available.

It might have to do with the fact that the skyline shed dude has a habit of dragging people's business names through the mud on Fakebook. Sometimes rightly and wrongly. Possibly someone is seeking retribution by creating this fake skyline shed site.

Yeah, nah, nothing personal about it. It's a somewhat common pattern for phishing websites. I don't know if they actually take money, but at the very least they are collecting full name + address + credit card details from victims.

It's minimum effort, so one can search for parts of the copy on the website and find others. For example there's gemnomads.com, which is a real jewellery business. But there's also a scam .shop version with the very same template that was used to duplicate theskylineshed.
