...the issue your bank has with this transaction.  You are not, nor can you, ordering anything through the website and any contact you would have had with them as best I can see went via email or phone.   If your bank really did check out the site, I'd hazzard a guess they saw that the SSL cert for the site was self signed and expired and this prompted them to issue a warning.    Only your bank will know for sure what their problem was with the site so I'd ask them for clarification.

Given that Ranier is an AHCI member and Nienaber-Uhren has been around since '82, I personally see no problem buying something from him.

Be compared to Amazon fyi. You simply email Mr Nienaber and ask for the financial details you need to wire the amount to his account for a purchase. He will provide you with the necessary banking numbers your bank needs to make the transfer. After the tra...
