Sadly: This was the only honest seller on catwaki. All other buyings did not come, package was empty or not as described. No help from catawiki. I lost nearly 2000 Euro. THANKS to this honest seller!

The best thank you! I’d like to buy from him again but would prefer he doesn’t send via signed mail because I have to go to the post office to fetch it which takes longer. Great seller thank you!

Dear, Thank you for your great feedback! I’m glad you’re happy with the coin. It was a pleasure doing business with you, and I look forward to working together again. Warm regards

I recently received my new coin for my collection, and I couldn't be happier! Although it got stuck in UK customs for a bit, they eventually realized it wasn't worth holding on to for long. 👍👍
