BRAVO - great little web page ! 
Really good that I can see at a glance what the best value is. Great time saving tool, Any form of time saving gets a thumbs up from me
If a newbie asked me "where would be the best priced sovereign from a reputable dealer", i would have just defaulted to saying Atkinsons of the top of myhead. 
Looking at the figures on your site, IM WRONG ! 
Points of note from me ! not moans, not complaints, feedback to build on
1.totally great it shows the % over spot.  This is what used to make HGM SO GOOD and a big factor that made them build their rep & business. Since they changed, this part of their business model, they have just lost a lot of my custom this past 18 months just for this reason 
You knew the vast majority of stock was ALWAYS +3% over spot , simple as, PILE IT HIGH SELL IT CHEAP - 1/10s, 1/4's or 1oz. 
Great in the background it crunches the numbers to show at a glance where is current best value. big time saver !!  
2.  I would use Royal Mint Bullion as the benchmark price and compare others to this to it.  ie saving £9.85 you would pay at the Royal Mint. Also to show to Joe Public how uncompetitive that actual mint that makes the sovereign is ones of the dearest to buy from !
3.  Other dealers to add, ukbullion.com, ATSbullion, bleyerbullion, have used them all and can be very competitive on price.  You may as well list maybe change JewelryyQuarterBullion to BullionByPost as i think how most folk know them by. It highlights what a rip off they on on price in most cases to.
4.  As other have said, with time add other coins, krugerrands, maples, usa eagles, fractionals. queens beasts, world gold coins, slabs would be a great addition long term
5.  I dont feel it needs all jazz and razzamatazz to funk it up.  it does what it says on the tin.  shows your the cheapeat source at a glance, it doesnt needs to be over complicated IMO
6. I would very happy to pay a one off fee for yearly access to it. maybe keep the sovereigns price for FREE use access 24/7 (the hook in, to show how it works) and add all the additonal coins & fractionals as a chargeable extra say £10 yearly fee would be fair and probaly be made back on buyers first purchase 
7.  I know its not possible but prices of gold items for sale here on the silverforum here are often lower still, ......well when im selling they are  lol 
WELL DONE YOU @S2G

Not a coin but coin related. A Harrison's improved sovereign balance. The coin needs to be the right weight to balance and the correct thickness fit through the slots.
 

Proper  antiquity  - awesome bud!  I love unusual stuff like this

The website is great.
 
 
 
BUT
 
 
 
There’s one MASSIVE problem that no one has mentioned yet. 
 
 
 
 
£300 is too bloody expensive for a sovereign! 😁

Not so bad if one has an extended family and/or a wide circle of trustworthy friends

@Roy Thank you, kind sir
Just picked up an 1878 Young Victoria Shieldback Half Sovereign earlier this morning for £147 (inc P&P), so I'm a very happy chappy right now

2017 5 coin proof set 

Got these today. Love the Valcambi bars. Got them for a very good price. Amazing. Also got a 2011 1/2 Britannia that I actually listed after thinking it was a mess. Got home gave it a very gentle polish and the dirt came right off. It wasn’t milkspotted at all. Keeping the little shiny thing now!!


Added 0 minutes later... That’s a great picture! Lovely little stack there!!

I may be wrong (only ever bought bullion from them, and very happy there every time) but I get the impression Atkinsons are usually quite clued up (? - longer term/more knowledgeable members will have a far better idea there). However, it could well be one that NCS could work their 'magic' on if there are only minor issues. Even if not, it's certainly a deal at current spot!
Off-topic (soz!), but long-term I see the Brit proofs very possibly doing quite well eventually off the back of increased worldwide interest in Sovs. It's not a series I've bought into at all myself, but one I hope does well for everyone who has
