That’s simply not true.  Plenty of coins on site that are the cheapest available.

 

Its there customer service that really wins out, again and again!

 

I discovered today that the payment had failed on my order yesterday at £22.16. Any other dealer would have said sorry, you need to reorder at today’s spot (nearly £70 more!). They went that extra mile, checked yesterday’s order, could see it failed and honoured the price.

 

Thats people over profit.

 

Im not sure where you are shopping Ape, I wish you’d share.

I focus on price. Buying mostly from Germany now.

I find chards really uncompetitive. But am willing to be proven wrong.

This is a useful tool, developed by a TSF member and open for all members to use for free, no hidden motives.

Chards are consistently in the top 3 positions, when in stock.

I've seen it and it's not always accurate.

And as said, Germany's cheaper right now.

I don't want top 3, I only buy the cheapest, they are simply never there.

Also, check gold.de. Better comparison site and illustrates my point.

Please note that this topic is to post up new deals that members see.

If you wish to discuss specific dealers or ask other members about their experience with a dealer it would be best to start a new topic as to not take this one off topic

I don't normally stick my well endowed nose into this sort of thing other than to occasionally add my 2p due to experience, buuuuut...

Being the absolute cheapest isn't always the biggest deal in my opinion. A business has to work out it's prices based on a large number of influencing factors, the more business it does in different disciplines the more nuanced this is. If you are supremely customer driven as a business a few pence or even a pound or two per coin extra can be accepted by the discerning buyer. You also have to take into account the benefit of a domestic supplier against a continental dealer when it comes to postage time, processing time etc. 

I am in no way trying to say "you should do this" or "you should do that", but when it comes to supporting a British business that is trying it's best to support and engage with its customer base I feel the need to speak out. 

It's even more difficult to compare when dealing with silver due to the nature of the UK market in this regard. Places like Chards are fighting an uphill battle with that particular market, and as far as I can see they are streets ahead of many with trying to provide secondary market alternatives that don't require the 20% VAT on the entire sale. When they are obtainable of course...

Be happy with what you do, I'm not trying to have a go (I've used Silver to Go before now and been very happy), but I think there's sometimes a bit more to it than just the price at the bottom of the page.

True but this is the "Deals" thread. Not the "chards" are nice to me thread. 😜

@ChrisSilver, thats my final word.

Check this site for some of the cheaper silver.

I have bought some Gold before form them and they are a joy to deal with. You are mad to pay what some UK dealers are asking.

I even bought and waited 4 days to see what prices would do and they honored order with no issue, despite prices going up a good bit.🤣

Apologies, but true🤣.

Take a look, it's impressive. Dont be disheartened, I'm sure they have a team of web developers on it. You are just one man.

They seem to be mainly buying. What are the deals here? I can't spot them. Help appreciated.

Hi, thanks for this link. When I look at the queen's beasts (as an example) they are coming up €41.76. It doesn't say that it's the 2oz coin, but I think they only did the silver in 2oz? Assuming it is 2oz, that does seem quite cheap, but am I right that if have to pay VAT when it arrives in the UK? 

Assuming that's the case, is there a place I can go to work out the VAT before I order. I'm new to this, so any advice would be appreciated. 

Thanks

No VAT as we are still in the EU, but you are looking at the price they pay to buy them off you, the other price is how much you would have to pay.

[BiigT]

Ah, thanks... Thought it was too good to be true!

Wrong section.

Don't know if these are of interest - at £25 per ozt they are well over spot (although no more than generics are at the moment) but I think they look very cool and the limited run might add to the desirability.

https://www.cpmcoins.com/landing-pages/battle-of-britain-1oz-silver-ingot.aspx

I couldn't actually find these by navigating the site (only found the 50g proof at £125) and it was an Instagram promo post that linked through to the page I have listed here.

I'm pretty sure someone posted this in another area of the forum and people were commenting to say they thought there was something Didier about it. I'm no expert, but I'd steer clear and wait for advice from others who can tell you their concerns.

CPM are fine, they will just bombard you with post and ads. 25 an oz is not a great price though.
