Has anyone bought/sold via the website getanoffer.co.uk?

Tonight, my partner and I went to see a property advised on one of the large property portals. The property itself was great.
The only problem is that I've never heard of getanoffer.co.uk, the estate agent advertising the property. They specialise in selling properties very quickly by offering at a discount. A promotional graphic at the top of their website mentions various well known media organisations who have featured them, such as The Sunday Times, The London Paper, Telegraph, LBC. I can't find any articles written about getanoffer.co.uk on any of the sites I've mentioned, nor can I find any other websites referencing getanoffer.co.uk.
As a buyer, the property is probably about 10-15% below market value and seems to good to be true. I'm looking for information from a trusted source that will put my mind at rest.
A search at companies house reveals that Get An Offer Ltd, as it refers to itself on its contact us page, has recently been dissolved. I would post a link but as a new user I'm not allowed. Take a look at their entry on the companies house website.
And the website itself doesn't comply with regulations in displaying company details such as company number, registered office address or place of registration
A search on the domain name details reveals the registrant is United Estates Commercial.
So, my question is, has anyone used or know of anyone who has used getanoffer.co.uk as a buyer or seller?
Thanks.

Does it matter? You are buying form the owner of the property, not getanoffer.co.uk .
View the property, make the seller an offer, ignore the website, and instruct your solicitor.0 -
No, but a quick google shows a thread on HPC last year, where the owner joined in and posted:
