Some coins have for sale below spot. Done a search on the forum and cannot see this dealer mentioned anywhere. I believe website is a scam but I cannot 100% sure. Any suggestions....

Domain was only registered, February 2020 and their London postcode does not appear to exist in Google Maps.

Was bored at work so had a online chat, looked up a 2020 sovereign @ $316 and could have checked out at that price. However after asking if price was correct they came back at £370. 
No idea if it’s a scam or legit but if they can’t keep prices up to date I personally would go elsewhere. 

[Darr3nG]

Bit of googlin' and found lots of online activity, around Feb and May of this year (twitter, reddit and even a YouTube channel with a video on how to pay by Bitcoin - the uploader has accidently left their personal gmail address exposed  )

This definitely feels like a bit of a scam. Buyer beware!

[Zimmerman]

And after my chat they blamed developer for incorrect prices which have just been updated. I wouldn’t touch them and stick to what you know.

It might be worth contacting BBP to ask them if this company is part of their firm.

I've messaged BBP customer services to see if this statement which can be found on https://www.peninsulahcap.com/en/content/4-about-us is true or false. Will update here in this topic, if they reply.

There site seems very suspect! Especially with pricing of coins, Australian Kookaburra coin 10oz for $188

At that price you couldn't afford not to buy them!

I have an interesting update on Peninsulahcap Bullion Dealer we have exchanged half dozen emails back and forth (see the image below) I have blank out my name and email address to protect my identity but look how fast I am responding back to the dealer (within couple of minutes) and dealer (or con artist) is taking hours on end to reply to my email. I am asking for invoice generated with VAT registered number and full address and contact details of the bullion dealer. In the end Peninsulahcap wants me to pay by PayPal using Friends and Family for a 1oz Gold place an order but yet to lock in the deal even though spot price has moved.

We had someone recently join the forum called

 Hi, I just received my first order of  "2020 1 oz Year of the Mouse Gold Coins"  This week from  https://www.peninsulahcap.com/  .

I'm new to precious metal, I  develop interest after reading about the pump in price of gold which recently happen. I will like to learn more about precious metal from this forum. 

Thank you  all.

Also had someone join the forum by the name of @peninsulahcap

In my humble opinion if it smell like c**p, looks like c**p talks like c**p it is most likely is shi**t.

@HelpingHands @ChrisSilver

Please carry out your own investigations but these newer members need to banned and blacklist Peninsulahcap Bullion Dealer as fake website I don't want any Silver Forum members to lose hard earned money to bunch of con artist.

agree @Abyss, and for a so called professional organisation, the standard of English leaves a lot to be desired
and as you say it smells like a farmyard full

 

 

[Abyss]

Decided to put a stop to the emails back and forth between myself and this bullion dealer (con artist).

Please note no respectable business would ask customer(s) to pay via Pay Pal Friends and Family.

Without having to go through the rigmarole of speaking to them etc, I think the 2 seconds it took me to discover that the US address on their website doesn't exist, sort of gives the game away.

Whenever I have doubts about the authenticity of a company, i just search their address on google maps, and if it's a residential location or a virtual office I give it a swerve

[Zimmerman]

Fair play for letting us all know. 

[peninsulahcap]

@DrunkMonk  Our prices are regularly been updated via script, that should be a bug and thanks very much for the update. I will report the issue to our developers so they can look into that.  we have been facing this issue with great price different sometime very high and sometimes very low, but during processing of any order, all the prices are been check to see if it match the current exchange rate. 

Once more thanks for pointing that out.

Hi @DrunkMonk I see the coin you are referring to is the "2012 1 oz Australian Kookaburra Silver Coin" The miss match in price was cause by the discount, our tech department has been notify about the issue. 

Once more thanks for the notification.

Are we saying my order for 10 1oz Griffins @ $1909 might not come through?  

 

[Clockpuncher]

Hi @peninsulahcap

I was having a look at your website and looks like you've got a really nice showroom - I've included a screenshot from your site below showing it and the image itself for ease.

I was just curious as to why your showroom looks identical to Vacheron Constantin's store in Sao Paulo?

Cheers 👍

Could you explain why you have a non-existent US address on your website 

Peninsula House Capital, 2559 Holden Street Carlsbad, CA 92009 United States

And can you explain the coincidence that there is a company called Peninsula House Capital in Cameroon, that also deals in gold

To say I have a trust issue is a bit of an understatement!

You didn’t answer the question I posed - why does your branch look exactly like Vacheron Constantin's store in Sao Paulo?

Where is your UK branch located?

Funny that...

I think @peninsulahcap might need to go back to studying this chart from Father Ted:
