They look like a cross between Nashbar and BikesDirect. I didn't find the prices to be that amazing. Did you convert pounds to dollars?

So, from RPK79's link, it would appear they are as dodgy as they come.
Avoid cyclistszone website as it is almost certainly a scam.
Their addresses are cute. Their London one is a big, shiny office, their Italian one is a suburban house. And oh look. I need to wire the money to the suburban house:
