Good communication from M-A and cgb (France). It took a little while for me to find an alternate payment method, since the default route through PayPal gave a poor exchange rate dollars to euros.

Goran, thank you for sharing your good experience with us.
MA shop website listing is not accurate…
MA shop website listing is not accurate and there is no proper control and audit of seller listing and response to messages.
I was interested in a Mexico 1736 gold coin,sent an offer and enquire about shipping matters that was not properly stated,there was no reply from seller.
Only after MA shop ask the seller, and his reply was the item was sold and not removed from listing.
I checked few days later, the same listing states item is available and you can make an offer.
Becareful if you want to make a purchase,and do payment because you will get scam as you will pay for an item not available.

DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY BUYING FROM HERE
TERRIBLE SITE, DO NOT BUY COINS FROM MA SHOPS. THE AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEE IS A LIE AS YOU HAVE TO GET WRITTEN PROOF FROM A PROFESSIONAL IN ORDER TO RETURN A NONE AUTHENTIC COIN. AND EVERY ORDER HAS A HIDDEN £30 CUSTOMS CHARGE WHICH CUSTOMERS ARE NOT TOLD ABOUT UNTIL CUSTOMS HOLD YOUR COINS FOR RANDOM UNTIL YOU PAY! DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON MA SHOPS

Not buying coins from MA Shop
I do not recommend buying coins from the MA Shop. You risk buying a fake and subsequently not receiving a refund.
This happened to me. I bought the coin from the seller Joel (Netherlands). I sent the coin to NGC for grading . Result: the coin is counterfeit. It is impossible to return money from the MA Shop . Returns are only possible if you paid for the item via PayPal.

Overpriced
Some good sellers on it but also many bad ones with many overpriced coins, almost bought a coin there for 5000€ and it was worth max 650€
Please contact an expert before buying something there, also never buy from HENZEN! (All his coins are 10 times more expensive than the actual market value)
