Last time I got my Pocketbook HD2 from Amazon UK. I'm not a big fan of amazon so I'd like to try another store.

I think it's legitimate, but I wouldn't use it because I'm pretty sure it's just another name for goodereader.com. When you check the whois registry for both you'll find they both have similar records — both registered in Hays England (both use the Amazon registry service).
Here's links to the Verse Pro page for both PocketBookStore.com and GoodeReader.com's store. (And also Findereader.com — another name they use.)
Here are the check out pages for the same item at the three sites...
Here are the refund policy pages for the three sites...
You'll note the PocketBookStore refund policy page refers to FindeReader instead of PocketBookStore.
Like I say, legitimate, but apparently they usually drop ship from Asia, which is not what most would expect for an "in stock" eReader.
EDIT: To be fair, I should add that PocketBook
does recognize PocketBookStore as a "partner store" in Canada and the U.K. on their website.
Personally I wish Newegg was still a PocketBook dealer in the United States. That's where I bought my HD 3 a few years ago.
TechInn.com sells PocketBook readers. They're based in England, I believe. Sometimes they can be cheaper than Amazon, but it depends on the current exchange rate (and also the postage amount, $8.99 to where I live in Idaho). They promise fast shipping, but I've never bought from them, so I can't vouch for that.
