If you have to ask.......

Answer 2

The way you put safe ordering to the test on any site is to choose any item and select to put it in your shopping cart. Then click "Proceed to Checkout".  Once the order form comes up, you look up at the Address field at the top of your window.  If it doesn't begin with https (make sure that letter "s" is there), they you should NEVER risk filling out that form!  That may be a legitimate site, but they are not using safe and secure practices.  The example you gave is one of those sites you should not risk buying from. The form where start filling out  your personal information is not a secure form.  That letter "s" is NOT in the address.  I would not even consider ordering from that site no matter how secure they might claim it to be.
