Dear Terence, 

Like with your previous question, one cannot tell for sure, but: 

(1) This domain has been listed for less than a year. 
(2) This domain and the store itself is in China. It sells counterfeit
items, which is illegal in any country member of the WTO.

In addition, it is labelled as scam in several sites: 
Www.cndepot.com Scam!!!

Dear Terence, 

Regarding the domain registration, I suggest you'll check out : 
Whois 
http://www.whois.net/

It states:
  Domain Record Created: February  19, 2005 00:00
  Domain Record Updated: November  17, 2005 13:50
  Domain Record Expires: February  19, 2006 00:00

That screams alarm all over. Add to that, the fact that they sell
replicas but claim to sell real items, and that they use bad English
("Engrish") on their site, should sway anyone away from these sites.

If that's not enough, here's the friendly advice of HM Customs, with
the bottom line:
"We view the smuggling of counterfeit goods as very serious and work
along side other Government agencies to combat the problem. We are
successful in seizing millions of pounds worth of goods every year and
are also responsible for breaking up and prosecuting the many criminal
gangs that are involved.

Punishment.
==========
Up to 10 years in prison, an unlimited fine or both."
