Scoins Shop .... BEWARE!!!
Bought gold coins from them eight years ago. They pushed me into buying a few so-called 'rare coins'. For one particular coin, I paid 3 times the amount of the going bullion rate at the time. Now that I need cash and I want to sell that coin... they are NOT interested in looking at rare coins. They only offered the current gold price rate for a rare, full ounce, PROOF Kruger Rand. And on top of that, they won't buy the coin from me... they will 'sell' it on my behalf. AND, I will have to wait 30 working days (please note) to get my money!!! They are ****mers!! There are other gold coin traders in Cape Town who will buy your coins and pay you while you are sitting at their desks. I dealt with one two days ago and the money was cleared into my account before I left the premises.

Dodgy business! Beware...!
<p>I am interested in buying a metal daybed. I went online and found the following company: "Wrought Iron Crafts" aka "Metal Art Beds" aka "Furnic" aka "Alcatraz Gates". A daybed is a relatively large investment, starting from R4000 upwards. I would therefore like to actually see one before I place my order. The abovementioned websites all state that you can visit the factory but "By appointment Only" I phoned, spoke to Ferosa and asked to set up an appointment. I am still waiting to hear from her - 10 days later. I had some other business to attend to in Cape Town today and decided to drop in on this company. The first address in Goodwood turned out to be a residential house. Nobody resonded. I phoned the number advertised on the Internet and spoke to Aziza who directed me to an address in Bellville. This was supposed to be the workshop at an industrial park. Again, no luck. On arrival I could not find any sign posting and very little activity at this industrial park. I spoke to one of the other tennants who gave me the assurance that she has never heard of any one of the abovementioned companies!</p> <p>Dodgy to say the least! Has anybody else had any contact or dealings with this company?</p>
