I would fear that the scam is in receiving your credit card information. Whether you get an item or not is the least of the worries here.
 
Trying to get a legit business to match a scam business sounds a bit like a scam doesn't it?
If they will or won't match it is up to them. It's not the customers job to research every store. It's most likely a scam site. With that said it's Lowe's or Home Depot's job to determine it..... Not their customers. The fact of the matter is, that it's an "advertised price".
 
Under UPC code it says" Does not apply" so no store is going to match the price even if its legit which I doubt. The web site says may be in plastic bag or other packaging. It screams scam and the cart total gives you a choice of dollars, euros or pounds so no matter the address they are not in this country.
 
You may get a trimmer. Like this one..

Get a good cordless one unless you are in the landscape business. I have a Milwaukee M18 hedge trimmer. Its great.

I already have the Echo gas trimmer pictured in the links. It cuts like butter. I had an electric but tossed it. It just didn't have the power to cut through thick branches. It just chewed on them until it pushed them out of the way. And the cord was always a PITA. This Echo goes through them like they're not even there.

I just thought the prices shown were worth looking into. Even though they are most likely a scam.

This is what Google says is there.

A gas powered Echo seems a bit overkill for 5 little bushes.

here's the other site, dfclau -

Total scam, wife got hit with the imitation vera bradley clearance site.. IIRC it was the actual vera bradley address only with .shop added looked identical to the real site.
and easy to miss on a phone web browser.

bought an ohio state purse at 25% msrp.. never showed up.. eventually she fessed up and I disputed the charge for Z0D3pZ.shop which appeared on the Credit card.

The thing is this scam works really well for the scammers so its increasing in popularity... dont be fooled.
 
I hit a site, and sale, that was dynamic - it was about 15th in the search results - and the best price!
Apparently that was enough time to suck in pictures and such to look legit - built the page around my search.
Fed 'em, waited, after about 5 days I claimed fraud and the credit card folks said they knew the site - instant refund, no waiting.
 
I've been all over both websites. The links are fine.
The sites do look legit. If the ~$69 purchase does go south, you can always battle it through the CC company.

I fell prey to a what looked like a legit deal on a husqvarna backpack blower on eBay a few years back. A very low price. It was a scam, but I did get reimbursed within a couple weeks.
