Helping hand

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, my names Henry and I work at a company under the name of Rosland capital, we specialise in Graded Gold coins. I see a large amount of people on here who have inquiries about different types of coins, if I could be of any help please feel free to ask any questions or queries about the products that i'm currently dealing with. 

Many Thanks

Henry ?

One and the same?

Age old problem I'm afraid. People confuse collecting and investing. We have dubious companies over here of our own who sell 'investments', but continually get away with it because people are essentially greedy. However, the UK isn't like the US where people have a greater tendency to buy the little plastic/paper insert rather than the obtrusive lump of metal below.

Anyway, this is a collector's forum, not an investment board.

Blimey that 'Bait and Switch' complaint is grim reading! Hope the guy got his money back, but surprised he went ahead with the deal in the first place!

Just like LMO and other nefarious businesses, it relies on people who are too lazy to do due diligence. As I said when I refused to go on the rip-off Britain programme, the people who get ripped off wouldn't buy a car without driving it first, yet happily hand over similar sums to someone who tells them they have a good way to make lots of money.

1. If it is that good, I wouldn't tell anyone else about it.

2. It probably is a good way for someone to make money, just not the person funding it.

Wow, I thought at first it was a reporter doing some sort of sting operation and playing stupid to catch them doing something illegal. $10,000 just like that.

As I am also a member on the US Cointalk forum I passed on a link to this thread over there. It seems that many of them already know of this company and none (so far) have a good word to say of them.

Here is the link: https://www.cointalk.com/threads/dodgy-company-from-the-us-trying-it-on-in-the-uk.284440/#post-2530327

although may need to login/register in order to see it.

I've got a Henry vacuum cleaner.

I'm told they're suckers, unlike the people who use them ;)

If a Henry cleaner doesn't suck, then it sucks :)

Might be someone should change the title from "helping hand" to "hand of death."

A little update for you gents - it seems this thread is causing some issues for our friend Henry and he's made a report asking for it to be taken down... I can't see any violations of the forum rules though... :ph34r:

It comes up as the sixth link after you've ignored the ad at the top on Google. Here we go https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=rosland+capital&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b&gfe_rd=cr&ei=vU0bWOytLO7R8geG3Z9Y

Irrespective of which side of the debate you are on, it is important to hear all sides. Whilst people on here are mostly seasoned collectors, not everybody is. That's why it is necessary to highlight both and bad. I get one or two calls a month on average from people with things they wish they hadn't bought - mostly small sums thankfully, but a few people have been taken for a ride big time. The best recommendation is always word of mouth. Expensive advertising will be incorporated in the price of the thing you buy. The value of highlighting the pitfalls? As much as you were prepared to spend less intrinsic value.

Don't wory about it Nordle. This forum doesn't appear on the first 10 pages of a Google search, so there can be no issue with it affecting their business (as you would expect from a forum such as this) and if no rules are broken then it's legit. The links on the first 10 are mostly the preserve of a large number of 'discussions'. :unsure:

Maybe Henry should have a chat with Google.

Hehe, indeed he should :D 

If you're doing any specific searches relating to coins, usually a link or two will pop up that come to the forum. For example, 'Gouby X' brings up the forum as the top link.

Agreed, but there are far more concerned parties elsewhere than on this forum about the vendor in question ;)  Our thread is irrelevant as nobody is going to get here using Google as their preferred route.

I just googled the company and didn't include coins.
