We would, but it actually works out cheaper to buy a built house [emoji15]

Flights aren't as budget as they used to be, but still reasonable, not cheap at Christmas though. Ugh.

But we have to go back to see family anyway, so it is whatever it is.

Yes, I have been paying into mine for 23 years now.
Since I have more expendable money lately, I have been increasing my contribution by 1% each year and am now at 5% with a 2% employer contribution.
I'll continue increasing until I'm at 8% which will be 3 years.
I believe in 2019, my employer will be required to increase to 3%, giving me an 11% overall contribution plus government money.
We are also currently costing up buying a property in Eastern Europe to diversify.
And my metals will just sit there too now, I'm unlikely to add to them unless there is a significant downturn in price.

Did you have to say that? [emoji1]

2oz privateer siren round. Just need to keep an eye open for the rest now at a good price....

Slight edge knock, nasty dink. All the same to a "modern" collector.

Roy, yours is FAR better.

I reckon so mate.

picked up the 1 kg rooster today. Looks awesome can't wait for it to arrive.

You'll hit dips, you'll miss dips.

Consistent buying is the best method in my opinion.

Today I bought a 2002 Britannia to complete my 2nd (and last) full date runs of Britannias.

Also bought a lunar series 1 rat / mouse. That's my third, and have a deal going for 2 more. That puts me nearly half way there!!!

Just sold a few bits and bobs on eBay so have £350 to drop on silver next week.

Probably will complete my date runs of fiji taku, Noah's arks, and philharmonic. There are a few others I fancy too.

Hi Numistacker
I got these coins in a bulk  job lot of brits  i brought a couple of years ago and was pleasantly surprised to find  some of the coins were proofs.
I have made my money back on the coins and more so i am happy , So what you call no sense, I call offering some one a good deal and the coins will find a home were they are appreciated.
But i am sorry if my deals have offended you in any way, But in the future could you please do one of the following three-
1  PM me if you think i am doing something that makes no sense
2  Buy the bloody thing
3 Maybe make a YouTube video and i could receive royalties
There was going to be four options but i am to polite    

Sold

Welcome to the forum.
At risk of sounding not welcoming I have to say, to come in at 1 post and sell is to me a bit risky.
You should introduce yourself and give back ground to your stacking/collecting history.
I for  one would not buy from you, and being in Singapore I hold my hands up would not buy from. 
I apologise for not sounding welcoming, and would have to say to newbie buyers on here think long and hard before you buy anything from anyone.
Sorry again, but as a long standing forum member this had to be said.

I recently got the set too, and would love a case for them!!!

I bet you are, that's about half their value at the moment it seems.

This was my sovereign collection before I sold half of them....

Provident Metals sells them. It was $1.89 I believe.

What a joke. I have already written to them with a complaint about the mere fact they may not continue it, i suggest everyone who wants to collect the series does the same.

Right..I was out and about so had limited capabilities on my phone.  Now I'm back, I'm sorry to say that the coin has a very high chance of being fake.  Alarm bells rang when you mentioned it was a second chance offer of £270 when the original sale was £320.  Based on minimum bid increments of £10 (could be £20, I don't know) it means there's a £50 difference between your max bid and the winner.  That suggests there was at least another bidder in between and maybe even 2.
Looking at his feedback, he sold a 1/4 Proof Krug on 3rd July and feedback was left.

 
Notice he's from Hove in Essex.  There is another seller with a coin and he just happens to be from Hove in Essex.  On the 22nd June he sold the exact same 1/4 Proof Krug and again, feedback was left.

Since feedback was left it suggests that the sale actually went through.  Might not have done but most probably did.
This other seller also has an interesting coin up for sale.  A 1989 1/4 NY Expo Medal.

Unfortunately, research suggests that all three coins have been counterfeited and in circulation since 2013
Link to details on the 2005 PF69 and PF70 fake Krugs etc.
 

Today I bought
A 1987 1/20oz gold panda and a 1988 1oz Gold panda
