As far as I recall during the collapse of Argentina dealers / shops remained open and you could buy or sell on the black market in unofficial markets and with street corner dealers. The Ferfal blog if it still exists gives a rough guide to what might happen if TSHTF.
I don't think fiat is in danger of running out given the rate it is being created at...

During the Credit Crisis, physical gold was in short supply, very similar to the situation during Covid, so yes it was easy to liquidate.

I emailed them as well as sending a letter. I actually asked them about how they treat data with regards third parties but still no response as of yet. The issue I have with the promo post (as many others do) isn't so much with the bombardment itself but with the fact that their branding is emblazoned on the envelopes. Even though I store my stuff elsewhere I still don't want to advertise the fact that I buy the odd bit of shiny...

I'm not so sure that the old argument that 'rate rises are bad for PM's because investors can find a better yield on Bonds' is valid anymore.
Higher rates because central banks have printed and lent their nations into an inflationary nightmare, might not find many investors still seeking a paltry yield over safety...  Gold is of course the ultimate bond.  Natures bond.  It has zero risk of contagion, no expiry date, but no yield.  In a world where western nations are well over 100% debt/gdp ratios, who really wants to lend their life's savings to a government, who might suddenly default.  It's no longer a crazy idea that a "stable" western nation could default within a few months.  In fact it's almost certain that default will have to happen at some point.
If governments dare to chase inflation, their debt repayments will exceed what their taxpayers can be fleeced.  So in the meantime, it's the man with no assets who's being fleeced as his salary goes backwards. It's an untenable situation and eventually it'll have to give.  Probably another 3-4 years of cope left in the system before an everything meltdown.
Real interest rates are negative, and they have to remain that way if profligate western governments are to survive.  There is just no way that they can be raised by the required amount to put a lid on inflation, and everyone knows it.  

The big Chinese property developers still look in big, big trouble. $13.2 billion of claims have been filed in Chinese courts by Chinese companies owed money by Evergrande alone. Add to that the other big developers in trouble and all the international bond holders who will likely take a severe hair cut or get nothing back if/when the plates all stop spinning.
What will the global reaction be? I can’t see any response by the Fed, BoE etc other than reverse the small rate rises and slam the money printers back into full speed ahead. 

The issue is the deriratives markets and bond markets are toxic, the evergrande is scratching the surface that lies beneath. Its a massive poweder keg underneath, We are in an everthying bubble now, tech, stocks housing the full thing now. When the 2008 crash happened it was the housing market and before the 2000 dot com crash also, we have had the small pandemic crash back in march 2020. None of it has been fixed, None of it-  you can fix stupid by printing more money, its  a temporary supressent, inflation has been enacted by all the printing and now it catches up, the Boe are only doing interest rises to stop people spending money, but the money is awash in the system like its going out fashion.  

Shadow stats calculate the current rate of inflation in the USA (using the methodology that was used in 1990 to calculate inflation) to be 10.5%. They also use the methodology used in 1980 to calculate inflation and that gives the figure of 15% for 2021.

If the same exercise was applied to the UK numbers I suspect the result would be similar. 

Stocked up on the pasta we use in September, went back yesterday to restock and the same pasta in the same shop has gone up 20% in the meantime. Gas, electricity, diesel etc all up markedly. A poxy rate rise will make no difference to the inflation, money printing, overspending or debt levels imho. 
 
I don’t think such a small rise will do anything to tackle inflation or hammer precious metals price downwards. They talk the talk about inflation and rate rises, but I doubt they will walk the walk, remember it’s still transitory….

Plus My wife looks at the packaging... some goods are around 10/15% less then they were a year ago with prices going up. Inflation should be based on the goods and its weight not just its packaging

Only ever got one phone call, very polite and accepted that I was (and always will be) only interested in their cheapest bullion... keep up the good work  
Don't really mind the excessive mail, fancy paper makes for great kindling in my wood burner.

Sometimes circumstances dictate you have to take the hit and sell to a dealer. When I cashed out my silver & gold years ago to buy my home, I was able to sell a small amount privately for a good price. I couldn’t wait for weeks / months to sell it all this way or the property would have sold to someone else.
The discount I managed to obtain on the house (from sellers original asking price down to what I paid them) was greater than the amount selling the bulk of my pm to a dealer v private sales cost me. 
 
I wish I could have kept my pm and bought the house, but the opportunity was too good, time and cash in short supply, so I had to bite the bullet. I have started to rebuild my position in gold and silver recently.

Can only imagine the news reports on that if it came for discussion.... 
Rich people who can afford to splurge on the luxurious metals of Kings wanting a reduction of the vat on their precious metals like solid silver coins and bars whilst xxx% of people can't even afford basic amenities.
We spoke to one reader who is struggling to even buy their newborn the latest £3k smartphone despite working part time in a shop and only eating out 6 nights a week "they're greedy pigs" "how dare they" 
🤣🙄

The police wasted their own time. They should quickly have realised they were in the wrong instead of being pig-headed and wasting tax payers money. This is an increasing tendency of the police to act in this way, they seem to think they are unaccountable.
