Live debate on YouTube anyone?

@BackyardBullion, definitely want to get the 2024 1 oz and 100 gr bars to go with my bars from last year.  I will find the numbers of the ones I got last year, and then do I tell you here, or wait until the bars are put up?  Love your work mate.

 

I have a spreadsheet with everything from last year, but feel free to double check and let me know.

Still didn’t mention your 1/10th gold bars 🫣

Sorry!

Yes, I do plan on making them this year. 

I will be communicating out to people at some point this year. The main problem is that they will be quite a bit more expensive than last year! 

Would maybe be around £250 each I would think

Oh wow those spheres are amazing!

Rough price?

I PM'ed you buddy.

All in around £950 for our kilo pieces depending on what price the silver is of course.

Price for hammered effect 20kg round?

We did big hammered kilo cubes for the elemental silver!

I also do 30 oz spheres

Hi Chap. Saw on your recent video that you had planned to get the production runs front loaded. Great plan. Especially with the ongoing problems with getting product to and from the assay office. 

I am still a newbie, in my eyes, but did take the 1,3,5 oz rounds last year and would love the same again this year including number allocation. I missed the forum and byb bars so would be up for them too in 100g maybe? If they had matching numbers that would be wicked also but that remains to be seen if I can slot in amongst your trusted long standing customers. 

Thanks for noting this request when you get around to it. 

Dave

Thanks!

Evening all. Would like to buy a couple of bits from Apmex (gold bars). Other then their $50 delivery charge to the UK are there any other taxes I should be wary of. As investment gold I believe it’s exempt of VAT but want to be sure of my total costs before pulling the trigger. Thanks for any advice 👍🏼

I just bought a gold coin from Apmex last week and delivered this week.

I got a call from UPS asking for my email address so they could send a form for me to sign as a declaration that the contents are investment gold and therefore exempt of tax and duty. 

Signed it, emailed it and coin delivered with zero fees or taxes. 

However, Fedex (sometimes used by Apmex) charged me tax on a £2k gold order last year and I had to claim that back with HMRC as they were just not listening to me to get it sorted. In that situation I got the tax back but the £18 fedex handling fee was not reimbursed. 

The thing that annoys me is that despite having direct contact with the mint Press office they are not going to put any formal communication out via their newsletter or on the product listings to say that the series is paused.

All they will tell me is that it is under review and when a decision is made they will communicate it.

Completely missed out Tavex too

Really?

I chose 6 companies that I have personally bought from. I chose only 6 because I didnt want to sit there for days colating the data. 

This is not a definitive list, deal with it.

I mean, honestly. This is just so bloody bad.

These coins you can literally buy by the kilo. They need 100 for this collection.

They couldn't find a better picture?

I went through the spink guide too, best total I can come up with is about £135 and that's for "fine" prices (spink doesn't give prices for lower than fine). 

Most of these coins conditions are described as "circulating"

Being overseas, I’ve only ever bought from RM and Chards from your list.

Regardless of my preference (and that of others), the numbers are facts, so you can’t possibly be blamed for being biased towards any one company surely? 🫤

You would think so, but hey, it still happened.

Sorry if you think it sounds aggressive, not meant to.  I just pointed out some facts. There is a button at the top of the page (compare) and anyone can see who is the cheapest at any given time.  I know that Atkinson have requested not to be included, so there is another site that also includes them.  Just for information, I have bought from every company in your list at one time or another.  Everyone of these companies will have a best deal at one time or another.

You flat out accused me of bias....how else was it meant to be interpreted?

Whatever, watch the video later today at 5pm and then pass all the judgement you like.

I’m surprised you have not been called out for omitting the fabulous 1g bars from the Oxford Mint in your table…..

Oh lawd...I forgot!
