Apologies if this is in the wrong section, but has anyone ordered from this company before?

I could not find their business address on the website, which always seems slightly dubious to me and is a red flag for a website I have not used before.

http://minted-uk.com/

The only reason is I want one of the Dr Who coins and would rather avoid ordering from New Zealand!

Thanks

It's strange that they say they have offices but not where they are.

They list mobile numbers and they don't allow pick up.

They may be legit but they could disappear tomorrow.

I never heard of them as well. Their FAQ page is not great - http://minted-uk.com/faq/ with contact number of 07070 707070 which strikes me as odd. Whois on the domain name does display the same number for Sharon that the web site shows.

I did find them mentioned on another web site: http://merchandise.thedoctorwhosite...elebrations/

Are these the coins you are looking for?

If so, the above seems to be cheaper than minted-uk and is a site that gives a postal address.

Hope this info helps.

Thanks for the replies and for the information Ken. I have decided not to order from them, even if they are legit I think any internet only business should make efforts to supply proper contact information, decent FAQ and a more normal payment process.

Otherwise it all looks amateur at best and fraudulent at worst.

This was the coin I was looking for:

http://www.nzmint.com/coins/shop-on...sters-daleks

It is not for sale on the BBC shop or anywhere else in the UK from what I have found so far.

I just know my son would love this coin as well, so may well order it from the New Zealand mint :-)
