They're selling all sorts of coins for relatively cheap prices. Seems suspicious to me. Does anybody have any experience with them?
Well... if anything... they do take major credit cards and paypal. so you've at least got some buyer protection there if they don't deliver. I also checked the better business bureau and ripoffreport.com for anything pertaining to them. nothing came up. A basic google search brings up about 6,000 results. Not sure if all are relevant, but it looks like they have a decent presence on the interwebz. A whois lookup turns up a bit of a discrepancy, though. The registrant and admin info seem a bit... off. They put their address as being in New York. But they listed China as the country where they're located. A lookup of the country code (+86) they gave with their phone/fax numbers backs that up. Also, the exact address they gave doesn't exist in New York City, where they claim to be located. Based on the whois alone, I would say it seems a bit fishy.

My advice would be... if you do decide to try buying something from them, be cautious and only purchase small amounts at a time. If you choose to use a credit card, go buy yourself a prepaid card and only put however much you intend to spend on it. That way you won't get screwed if they decide to go rogue and dip into their customer cc database.
Good luck. And if you do make a purchase through them, post a report here on the forum.
