  1. “The Golden Goose and the Premiums” Once upon a time, in the mystical land of Bullionburg, there lived a peculiar goose named Aurelia. Unlike ordinary geese, Aurelia had shimmering, golden feathers that glinted in the sunlight. Her clucks sounded like tiny coins dropping into a treasure chest. But what truly set her apart was her obsession with gold premiums. You see, Aurelia wasn’t content with just laying regular eggs. She wanted her eggs to be worth their weight in gold—literally. So, every morning, she’d waddle over to the local goldsmith, Mr. Glitterbeard, and demand, “I want my eggs insured against inflation, Mr. Glitterbeard!” Mr. Glitterbeard, a stout man with a monocle and a penchant for puns, would scratch his head. “Aurelia,” he’d say, “you’re a goose. Geese lay eggs. They don’t come with insurance policies.” “But what about premiums?” Aurelia insisted. “I’ve heard they’re all the rage in the financial markets!” Mr. Glitterbeard sighed. “Premiums, my dear Aurelia, are for insuring valuable things—like ships, houses, and pirate treasure. Not eggs.” Undeterred, Aurelia decided to take matters into her own wings. She enrolled in an online course titled “Advanced Egg Economics” and learned about supply and demand curves, hedging strategies, and the intricacies of bullion-backed omelets. Armed with newfound knowledge, she hatched a plan. One day, she laid a particularly shiny egg—the kind that made Mr. Glitterbeard’s monocle pop out. “Behold!” she declared. “The Golden Egg Premium Edition!” Mr. Glitterbeard inspected the egg. “Aurelia,” he said, “this egg is just painted gold. And it smells suspiciously like spray paint.” “But it’s premium!” Aurelia protested. “I even added a little certificate of authenticity.” Mr. Glitterbeard squinted at the certificate. “It says, ‘This egg is 24-karat hilarious.’ What does that even mean?” Aurelia flapped her wings indignantly. “It means it’s worth its weight in laughter! And laughter is the best currency, Mr. Glitterbeard.” Word spread throughout Bullionburg about Aurelia’s premium eggs. Soon, investors, speculators, and even a few confused chickens lined up outside her coop. They wanted a piece of the golden action. Aurelia’s egg market boomed. She introduced limited-edition eggs with holographic designs, embossed with phrases like “In Yolk We Trust” and “Eggstraordinary Returns.” People traded them like stocks, and the price of her eggs skyrocketed. But then came the Great Omelet Crash of '24. The bubble burst, and Aurelia’s eggs lost their shine. Investors scrambled to sell, and the once-premium eggs were now worth less than a regular breakfast. Aurelia sat amidst the cracked shells, pondering her folly. “Maybe I should’ve stuck to regular eggs,” she mused. “At least they don’t require quarterly reports.” And so, the legend of Aurelia, the goose who tried to outwit the gold market, became a cautionary tale in Bullionburg. But every now and then, you can still hear her clucking, “Remember, kids, diversify your nest eggs!” And that, my friends, is how gold premiums and poultry collided in a feathered fiasco. Disclaimer: No actual geese were harmed in the making of this story. Premiums were purely fictional, and any resemblance to real financial advice is purely coincidental.
  2. Marlboro Gold 200 cigs £90 Lambert&Butler 200 cigs £80 BT
  3. In less than 3 minutes you found the auction on eBay and posted the screenshot here. That's what I call dedication.
  4. Nothing, everybody will wait to drop again.
  5. I think they just cash in their profit after suppressing the price for so long, the manipulation will never stop and if you know the direction of the price (like they do), they will make a fortune on daily trading. Win-win for them whatever the PM goes up or down.
  6. Not for long, just old stock to clear.
  7. The proof that the supply and demand economy is dead and the price is made by paper trading. Shame shame shame
  8. No Best way to stack silver is the secondary market
  9. Bullionvoult should update their webpage Anyway, I fouud bullionvault the best way to stack gold.
  10. Vaulted gold is subject to CGT, but you only need to pay anything if your profits exceed £6,000 in the financial year (2023/24). Many investors will never exceed the threshold where CGT becomes due.
  11. Silver should be for people willing to get involved in buy/sell, the secondary market offers opportunities. Gold in my opinion, the best way to stack it is services like bullionvault where you avoid postage cost and you can sell it 24h at close to spot price and no VAT involved plus £6000 CGT per year.
  12. In my case yes, I'm quite sure most of the sellers don't place any orders right now but I'm willing to take the risk.
  13. From the same place, the next batch of Britannia at £27 comes from.
  14. I posted today 10oz Britannia bars at £250 when the cheapest dealer has them at £330... A stacker wouldn't be afraid of buying at the new high price but someone who buys to sell for a quick profit yes. This
