OK, let's see. A newly created company that is already late in submitting the annual statement - a five minute online job costing about 13GBP. One Director and if you click on his details his experience ranges from office cleaning (dissolved) to beigels (a post he held for five months).

Not to be touched with a barge pole.

Thanks all, the responses and the lack of responses speak volumes.

There is a bit more to the story than me just finding them of facebook TBH, we have a family member who has purchased a few items from them and my spider senses are going a bit nuts.

I was hoping a few people might have popped up and said some good things but it seems not.

Hopefully said items turn up and it's not a scam. Not sure if the family member paid via Credit-card if so they may be offered some protection through it?

The coins have turned up TBF, they were paid for with a debit card though 🤦‍♂️

Presumably you have or the family member has done some due diligence and attempted to test the coins? Size weight etc, only asking as it may help to settle the off feeling you had

We have been suggesting they are taken to a shop to get authenticated.

It is good news that goods have arrived.

A bit of an update, the coin had to go back, it was appraised by a coin shop and found to be a fake.

I don't want to go into to many details, but buyer beware with these guys.
