Hi and welcome to the forum.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Hi and welcome to the forum. You are doing the right thing by researching the topic before making any purchases, especially as prices are high currently. My advice would be to stick mainly to gold (sovereigns) if you are stacking and not collecting.

Worth grabbing a sov or 2 if you're ok with spot price movements either way.

If I had an issue with postage like you describe, I would have no issue with asking for the difference back. Also, in making it public knowledge if sure it was not a genuine mistake. i think @arshimo2012 sets the gold standard here, as far as reselling goes.

I'm not having a go, but I think I remember that a few years ago you were trying to eek out a % out of the buy sell spread by way of placing wanted ads. I mind thinking at the time, is it worth attempting to save £4/ £8 pound on a deal when you believe the price will rise 50 or 100% within a few years. Here we are in this situation, were those sales ads for £800/£900 etc an ounce at time really worth knocking back for less than a percent? That said, for all I know you may have scooped up,all the metal,at the price you wanted, but I would think it unlikely. Here again you appear overly concerned with premiums. I'm not buying now as I hope I have enough metal. If I thought I did not, I would keep buying, regardless of today's spot price or premiums asked.

Looks interesting, thanks. Personally I would be wary of holding yen, I would take on the Yuan, although it's not free floating PRC can place it anywhere, however they have the metal to back it when time comes.

Wouldn't you be spending a lot/most of your time (and dosh) making your derelict property cosy, or is that part of the plan. Hope it works out.

#12 again please @BackyardBullion

Gold may "plummet" from here, but only in a paper price, if it hit $1500 you could not get it for that in metal (physical) My advice is to stack to a level where you have a core stack. I have fortunately reached this level , and anything else is iceing on the cake. incidently, don't ask me the quantaties I stack. Suffice to say the ratios are gold:silver: platinum = 1:50: 0.1 Good luck

He was being exuberant / sarcastic I think? Unless they reset fiat, gold is never going to be 400 in £ nor $ even.

Many a true word said in jest, eh. i would not be surprised if the free world followed the rise of China and incorporated "encouragement" to be vaccinated by way of obtaining social credit/ life https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Credit_System

I thought you didn't believe in doling out "bennies" from the hard earned that has been stolen from you by way of. CGT, PAYE and NI 😀 Screw the poor , let them eat wot sits.
