Anyone purchased from MA Shops

[RiverbankSilver]

Hi

This site came up after googling a coin I am looking for.. Anybody made any purchases from here?

Thanks in advance.

I’ve not purchased anything but, having looked in the past, it seems to be a site that other coin businesses advertise on.

Not sure about the .co.uk suffix though. I think it was a .com American site.

That address is the Siesta Key Pack and Ship mailing center. Looks to be a drop ship address box # and not an actual business address location. I would be very weary of this.

Purchased many times over the years from MA and never had an issue at all..

Same as above few comments, I've brought a few items from there and always been hassle free.

From what I know the sellers have to adhere to strict standards on that platform.

Purchased a few times over the years. Never any problems,a few of the dealers entertain offers,also received a few % off codes after purchasing

I think it's a great site. I've bought many items on it over the years, especially coins from German states as it seems to have a lot of German coin shops on it.

It's a market place for dealers.  If I'm not mistaken, dealers are vetted before being allowed to sell on there.  It's been many years since I've bought from there but I never had any issues when I did.

As stated above - MA-shops just run the site, the purchase will be from a coin dealer identified when you click on a coin. Most dealers I ever saw on that site are well-known and reputable, including e.g. SVCollector whom we know from here on TSF.

What is then important is to check the country of the dealer of your chosen coin to make sure you are aware of potential customs impact of the delivery. While most are from the EU, there are also a few from the UK or the US.

I have bought from them a few times. Would buy from there more but postage and the added customs imports kill off most potential sales normally.
