I hate all this why is there all these rules and regulations for something you buy and want to keep and save it’s a joke. VAT is criminal. Makes me sick.

I'm not sure whether I have been told, but if I have I would not be able to comment, as it would almost certainly be under embargo until some relevant date, or whenever the RM officially announce it publically.

That reminds me I need to pop to the shop before it shuts to get an UM BUNGO. 

When is the 2023 sovereign going to be released and in stock to purchase ? November/December ?

Well I just assume it's regular customers and also rare instances that this happens, happened to BYB a few months ago and a few others before that.

Well I’m glad they given me back or not taken the money yet anyway. Seems like a lot of people are not happy with the quality .

Well obviously you can't take nickers of a bare arse 😂😂 they will probably just try a few times, then send an email to advise updating payment method ( I assume)

Yeh but as you said , in some instances they taken the money after the coin was delivered. Which I find strange tbh. I mean they send the coin then attempt to take the money after and can’t ? The. What? Do they get the queen beefeaters took turn up at the persons gaff ? Lok

Actually yes they will lol, everything @paulmerton says is how the RM works... take the payment and by law can only hold payment so long ( if service can't be carried out within a certain number of days) then payment comes back, but unless you have cancelled order..the payment will be taken again just before dispatch. There has even been a few instances where payment wasn't taken until after delivery of coin.

What about if there’s no money in the account ? Lol

Oh right, I wasn't 100% sure what you meant given that you hadn't asked for a refund and the order is showing as still in progress.

If you see a transaction for your payment, plus a second transaction for the refund, then there's nothing to worry about. If the balance has come back but there is no longer any corresponding transactions showing in your statement, then the order likely is still in progress and the amount will be taken again when it's ready for dispatch.

The balance is back in my account. And that’s it. When I placed the order it was pending from my bank for about a weeek now it’s just back in my account. They won’t attempt to take it again as it’s a card payment not a direct debit lol.

Keep an eye on it - payments would naturally drop off your transaction list after a few days anyway if the item hasn't been dispatched yet. It doesn't necessarily mean they've refunded you.

Huh ? It’s already been refunded I said the money is back in my bank.

After reading all the comments above I’m quite happy I got a refund now. May I add I didn’t even ask for a refund but the transaction got sent back to me without Any reason. I don’t think they accepted my payment even though the order is still in progress. Very strange indeed. Royal mint doesn’t seem to be very reliable. 

That taxfreegold website doesn’t work for me . Anyone else have same problem ?

OCD?  then pre owned isn’t for you lol

- the Post Office (Cardiff) have sent me an email saying they have received the parcel and sending it…! It is the five sovereign though. 

Yeh I didn’t ask about that one just the one I ordered.

So I just got off the phone to royal mint. They are being produced this Friday and next Friday. So anyones that are being produced this Friday will be out next week, and any being produced the following Friday will be out the week after. I was about to get a refund but I thought I will wait. I obviously didn’t mention to them about wanting a refund I just wanted to here what they were saying first so will wait a few weeks more.

Do you think I could get a refund if I ring them up ? I don’t want to wait until October to receive this. I should of read it more clearly tbh. Lol.

Yes, but it's not quite as clean and easy as the sovereigns one:

Only goes up to 2013, and also includes some gold £2 coins which are not double sovereigns.

Hopefully, it should fo the job for you though.

So there’s been a double sovereign for many a years then. May start a run at some point .

Is there a double sovereign version of the link you gave me @LawrenceChard

Huh ? I can’t find the dating profile section anywhere. Is it an add on for platinum members only ? Do you get a steak meal for free on first date ?

Wait what! Are you serious or just being facetious? 

Serious

I got an email but not for dispatch info it was just a thank you for my recent purchase and gave me a ten percent off my next order. I found that cute.

Silver is trash because of the premiums and the 20 percent VAT added. Look at the current price per ounce for silver, then look and what you can actually get an ounce of silver for weather it be from a dealer or on here. I collect silver because I think it’s cute but at the same time I’m not a cute person I’m a fool. So I’ve decided silver would be a long long longer game plan for me. Silver would be for my kids/grandkids future from now on.

Threads get created like these ones quite often lately.

Is the five coin pattern set different to these two new coins ? As I’ve seen videos from 3 months ago with these coins allegedly
