@Chrispringle85 is price matching chards if anyone is interested. 

Very legit! Great service. 

anything at spot?

(Not a silver deal per se, but this seems like a bargain for some related accessories)
This USB microscope is a reasonable deal on its own, and obviously lets you look at your coins and bars in close up detail on your phone or computer screen: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Jiusion-Magnification-Endoscope-Microscope-Compatible/dp/B06WD843ZM
But it also has an offer where you can get 99% off a set of 100 coin capsules:

So for £18.09 you can get that USB microscope plus these (with free next day delivery if you have Amazon Prime):

The obvious downside is they aren't large enough for most 1oz coins. Maybe that's why they are almost free  
 

Coming up with an error message. Others getting the same?

Must be a pain replacing the prices on those cards every single day.
 
The brit looks like it was competitive too.

Sovereigns at £323.99 at Costco Manchester. Better rate than most online retailers, certainly when only buying one or two

Held 26. Nice.

Premiums on the up from here on out

When did £29 notes become a good price for 1oz bullion. Now on almost 40pc above spot. Crazy times.

Works out at around £23.64 per oz 

Echos of last year? Bairdmint's own silver bars on their website working out at a reasonable per oz price after VAT is added. For example, the 500g cast bar is 311.72 + 62.34 = 374.06. Works out at £23.27 p/oz. Yes you will likely be waiting a while before it's delivered and yes you have to add delivery (same as most dealers) but that's a lot cheaper than some dealers are charging for Bairdmint's own product. Plus they're made up new. Last year a lot of us were buying from Baird's with VAT when the Euro option was still a thing, it seems they've gone to that level of pricing again.

My view is simple i lost 6.5% of my buying power last year to now due to inflation, are there better investments than silver and gold yea. All investments are a gamble. Would I invest knowing what I know now, me yes. Silver is a means to an end. Do I expect silver to climb in value as an average, yes. History has a habit of repeating itself. Do I think the price is rigged to a degree. yes. Will I hold what I've got silver wise some yes most no  

Trust me, you will gladly pay £11 to be removed from their mailing list!
A saving of 3% is insignificant if you are holding long term, I've seen some of my purchases increase in price by 100%.
Don't stress over the price, just keep buying 👍

His post reads as he orders up and takes the hit either way. It all depends on the customs officer in question as to whether it acrues the 5% or 20%. It may be a good idea to start a new thread on the pros and cons of ordering from Europe so the deals thread stays on point? I get an itchy trigger finger when I get an alert thinking someone has found 5% dealers margin in the UK or something 🤣

The sovereign isn’t a bad price.
Why doesn’t somebody put that Britannia straight. 😬

Baird mint have 250g silver bars for sale at £216 (time of writing)

Great to see care like that

That’s ridiculous. You can get them from Bairds for £310.00 and you don’t get a tonne of c**p through your letter box afterwards......
