It stinks 💩 on all levels

Even basic little me here, I've popped stuff on eBay for auction and it didn't make what I had expected. What did I do ? Took it on the chin, honoured my part of the deal as seller, sent the goods and got on with life. 

Honesty and integrity, honour and value

You can sheer a sheep many times, you can only fleece it once RM

Great words! If there were only more people that acted with this integrity the world would all be in a better place.  …good luck @BackyardBullion I think you will be hard pressed to find any integrity in an MPs office. It may possibly exist in some but the fact most MPs don’t even live in their own constituencies is telling!  

Hi @londonfella81 I think the other challenge having done due diligence is you have is you are a new member and have NO reviews at all. People will maybe not be too keen a chap that has no reviews coming around to their place. Just a thought.

And meeting up in a public place with 500 Oz of silver and the seller with a lot of cash is not idea.

On reflection unless you had someone to vouch for you it’s going to be difficult to shift. PS. Do you have proof of purchase? Where did the silver come from? I would be out till I had a little more info.

Agree. But you’re looking at about £22.5 a coin if you want those to fly out. A little more than £22 a coin if £11000 was paid for the 500 ounce box. 

And if you do sell the tubes put me down for a couple.  … no money in Brits at the moment. No movement in the market, premiums just too low.

If I can't sell the whole box thinking tubes is the only way to do it tbh

Agree. But you’re looking at about £22.5 a coin but in tubes, you will hedge yourself. You can then control volumes. 
 
If you did tubes of coins at £550 (or £22 a coin) sales maybe still be slow. 

A 🤔 £22 a coin (ie. if £11000 was paid) for the 500 ounce box is a great way to dump the lot though is a fair price at volume.

🤔😮but it is rare😮😮

What’s rarer? A 2024 AG Bullion Kruger coin … or the box it comes in? 

PMed.

Saw this today in the metro in London.

Not much of a deal to me for a bullion silver Kruger £39, and only one per household. Thoughts? 😂

@JamesH glad you got on well. I spent over £10k with them easy till I had an issue. 6 months now still ongoing. They auctioned the wrong coin, apparently got a credit. A stack of coins waiting… if still there with them. Currently down around £700. Let’s see if they ever resolve the issue. Seems they are so busy they forget to get back to their customers enquiries? At least that’s what seems to be happening to me. 

Yep…. And still waiting…

Love the gold, wish I wasn’t so poor.. you thinking of grading or keeping as is sir? 

As is. I love the case. It is a little bit different, a nice chunky lump in a perspex block.

 Had some further correspondence with RM today after my annoyance with their pricing.

They have reduced the prices of a few of their stock and sets with new prices going live tomorrow.

Still silly high pricing but a start at least!

I too equally shared my concerns on pricing the other day with our RM accounts manager.

Making me curious about having more than 1 tube, you must have enlisted the help of friends and family. Fair play. 

Good on you. I just told 5 mates, 3 of them  bought for themselves, 2 of them did not (and are actually PM collectors) both are numpties.  

I expected “exchange” in title and a slight different colour, like there is with “wanted” (red) and “exchange” blue. 
 

Though I see not there is a sale .and exchange option. I guess it guess does not pop to me and so I would typically (and expect others too) would pass over it. Just saying. 
 

In looking I think you pay have the right title tag 🤔. Just doesn’t seem to pop out at me. Not for me but GLWS anyways.

Hi TSF,

Interesting week with gold right?

.This week reaching a new ATH

.Up nearly £100 in the past two weeks, with continued week on week rises.

Perhaps further rises are on the way.

Perhaps not. 

Are you feeling lucky?

I'm offering top condition RM 1oz gold bullion in exchange for the above coin.

Opt 1: 3oz + £1000 

Opt 2: 4oz + pay £800

Some graded coins are also available for a possible part exchange. Message for further details. 

Only established members on this one please.

Running for the weekend. Ending Suday evening.

Hi sorry if you want this coin or it’s an exchange shouldn’t it be tagged “wanted” or “exchange” just to make it clear you want the coin in the title? 

Thank god those have sold. Kept looking 👀 at them way too much! 

Let’s just hope they don’t do a second like they did with the gothic crown. 👑 … we know how much of a flop that set was over the previous 2 coins in the collection.

Were the Royal Mint kind enough to provide you with an Allen key?

@9x883 come on now! They are not that generous. Thats what Poundland is for. 

Yer for £275 for a couple ounce of silver it’s I nice profit margin a’

IMO some of the best proof coins I have seen in years out of RM.  

@SilverDrum any more of these coins left? 
or any Victorian silver crowns. 

🫤… sent my proof version back. Just another, of the many coins from the RM you can though on a stack if you ask me. £25.50 if you like is not to bad though.  GLWS

Line me up next!

I have bought 2 King George V silver coins from RM site when i started collecting numismatic coins years way back.  After a year, i realized i can purchase similar grade ones at 50-60% from markets, a lesson learned and luckily not sky rocket prices were involved.  These 2 coins are still kept by me up to now and remind me the story behind😅.
