    LawrenceChard of the golden mile. I know your a semi intelligent man, there's an opportunity here to be the biggest dealer in the UK. The collective buying power of TSF is eye watering. If you bend a little ( whilst still making a healthy profit) then hello Vegas 😆 

    All I want you to do is free things.

    1) be the cheapest slightly. 

    2) include a better preowned range and reflect this in price, I'm sorry but just because a krugerrand is years old,does not make it rare ( unless first year obviously)

    3) all in one price. If others can make a profit being cheaper, then so can you. I'd rather have a couple thousand sets of profit versus a couple hundred. 

    Why don’t you set up a straw poll and see how many, forum members would potentially purchase on a group order,  given the right price/premium This may act as a persuader or have no impact whatsoever😄👍

     1/4oz gold would have been a good size for a gold collection of these, the 1oz gold proof over 26 coins and ending in 2026 is a massive outlay and what will a 1oz gold proof be from the RM in 2026 3.7k?  it makes it the best part of a 80k set.      

     

    What do you think a 1oz silver proof be in 2026?  I'm guessing £200

    Around 4.5 cans of Heinz veg soup. 

  3. I read an article which I can’t find at the moment. It put gold price in terms of world money supply and debt. I believe the estimate was around $60000 an ounce so putting a sov/ 1/4. At 15000 circa £12000, 

    Point is if we went back to a gold backed currency then all my available savings would be in cash/ sovereigns and interchangeable. Like you I would be happy if prices rise significantly/ money reset and sitting on a little stack currently when prices were being held down.

    Nice one mate Hope you get many good years service. 

    However,  you created the “today I received “ in the non precious metals section. I think your first post was a lathe or bongo drums. Chris will be spinning like a dervish re the out of topicnish. 😀
     

    Also, don’t think your number plates are legal😃

    I was thinking about to post something similar to this topic on CGT. My take was should CGT be abolished tomorrow (for argument sake), would members still continue to buy Sovereigns and Britannias. 

    In answer to your question, how would HMRC know ?  And why would you want to tell them ?

    Bank transfers landing in your account?

  6. As folks have said CGT reducing to £3k is possibly a factor. Only need a few ounce of gold to increase in value by a decent % and you are on the hook.

  7. Just noticed recent changes to CGT.

    This year remains as is I.e. £12300

    2023/24 £6000

    2024/25 £3000

    This will have an impact for folks selling on non CGT free coins.

    As an aside; what do folks do regarding recording sales via forum etc as there is no official recording? I’m thinking on tax returns and if the tax man ever comes knocking? Even if you sell CGT free  coins, how do you prove it?

    Wonderful news. Up and Up is only a good thing. And for those who are annoyed because it means their targets are going to be hit, think about the long term and not short term. I saw a 1oz coin for sale on the sales threads the other day with the original Bairds invoice - it was under 900.00 GBP for the 1oz coin and it was bought in 2015. I know that gold is a fickle thing, but I really think that NO ONE can tell you where it is going, so you just have to buy when you have the money and maintain faith that it will rise (and hold tight [and continue to buy!] during the falls).

    Cheers!!!

    That was mine and is now priced close to spot; it appears no one wants it. 
    I was in two minds whether to include original invoices on sales threads, I feel it adds to provenance for sale but not sure if this puts some folk off thinking excess profit? Personally I have had that money tied up for 8 years and could have done better with an index tracker.
