    Silver for me. The demand in the industries on the next years will be huge, not so much for gold (to expensive).
    or
    I also have around 12000 orders selling Lego
    The average life span for a Lego set is 2 years, during this time you can buy them at discount, promotion...
    After 2 years the set will retire (not all) and the price will slowly goes up. You can double your money in this way if you have the space to store.
    Of course this is not apply for all sets, usually the one's with unique minifig are doing better.
    This is not a financial advice, is a proven method tested by me during last 7 years.
    The idea is, everything is make sense with Lego, the demand, the novelties, the rare or expensive sets, the price growth after not selling anymore in stores, but nothing of this is apply to PM market, nothing at all.

    MickD reacted to ChrisSilver in “Coin Cabinet” - Serious concerns on customer service.   
    This company cancelled their Official Sponsorship and advertising on TSF around the same time that another member which I will not name asked for their account and all information about them to be deleted when I called them out for directly trying to damage TSF and actively suggesting to members via PM to cancel their membership and go to his FB group instead, all while TSF was sponsoring their YT channel. 
    I had felt that CC had used TSF to get awareness of their auctions and then cancelled their paid membership once enough TSF members were aware of them and also were possibly persuaded by the aforementioned member, I was aware that they had a business relationship. The reason they gave was that not enough members of TSF are interested in Gold. However, I had put up a public statement at the time (which has since been removed) and a member private messaged me at the time and said that the commission on his item alone would have been enough to cover several years of their membership fee. And of course, as many of you are aware there are many members of TSF who purchase gold and some exclusively gold.
    Recently they actually emailed trying to buy TSF or offer me a job. Of course TSF is not for sale nor do I wish to work for them. 
    Unfortunately @Silverman2U I am unable to help but as I was tagged in this post I just wanted to make my relationship with this company clear, and that TSF has no business relationship with CC. Hopefully if you reach out again via email they are able to help.

    Hi All
    I enjoy a well run action.  I was a bidder on the below auction which was for me well organised, and professional. Thanks @Darr3nG.
    From me with a buyer perspective, the following makes for a good auction and reduces back chat as the auction is happening!
    - Good Photos 
    - Clear description including grading details if applicable, condition report if there are obvious impairments
    - Description of coins that match the date on the photo…get the basics right
    - Very clear description of the auction terms and conditions.  Increments, end time etc
    - Postage terms and conditions included / not included with the auction
    I am certainly not going to “tell” people how to run their auctions but the simpler the better for me.  I don’t want to partake in auctions that might result in a dispute.
    It goes without saying that keeping it simple makes it easier for buyers, will result in less chance of dispute and minimise thread noise.
    Best

    Lovely high grade Gold, Silver & Bronze South Africa Sets, which include several NGC top population coins.  
    Well worth the wait given Customs delays and hold ups UK side due to postal strikes.  All from the late October Swiss Sincona auction.

    Hi all,
    I would like to share my experience with BullionByPost as they were the last to try.I haven't had much luck in the past trying to get the best condition for the coins I want to be in top condition.
    I sent them an email first,asking about the condition of their 2022 gold buffalo.I told them that I had bad experience with other online bullion dealers,that coins which were described as mint state were drilled,acid tested...
    They said there can be marks occasionally in the Buffalo coins ,but they certainly wouldn't sell a coin that had been drilled or acid tested.
    I have tried to find a buffalo here on thesilverforum to buy but I got only one offer for a Buffalo that was badly scratched and at same price BullionByPost had on stock.
    Thinking that I can't get a worse condition than the one offered on thesilverforum I went ahead and placed an order for a 2022 mint state gold Buffalo from BullionByPost.
    To my surprise,the coin arrived in a perfect fit capsule and couldn't believe that I finally got a top condition gold Buffalo.I'm not an expert but seems to be an MS69.
    I'm very happy with the condition of the gold buffalo and that finally,with the pre 1942 gold indians,the family is reunited.
    Thank you very much BullionByPost.

    Two more Sixpences toward my Monarch Type Set, and the last of my recent tranche of buying.
    The first is a 1687 James II Sixpence.  Extremely scarce in this high grade.  All James II coinage is difficult to source due to the dearth of it and his (disastrous) three year reign prior to exile.
    The more familiar portrait of George III is easier to pick up, but this high grade uncirculated example is a welcome addition, thick with toning and haze that gives way to a nice iridescent brilliance.
    The bottom photos are of the two Brothers together- Charles II & James II.
