I'm a real newbie at this so I am wondering if this is a good buy on Ebay?  It seems a no brainer so I am wondering if there is a catch, whether the seller has simply made a mistake or whether I am just ignorant in some way.

£43.17 incl postage Buy It Now price

https://www.royalmint.com/our-coins/events/paddington/paddington-at-the-station-silver-proof-coin/

£60.00 inc VAT but not sure about postage

That proof coin is a collectors item if you want it but these ones usually lose value generally in the second hand market. 
 

If you want to invest by weight then it’s not worth it. It is 8 grams of .925 (Sterling silver), which means 7.4 grams of pure silver. At the current spot price the silver in it is worth £2.83 

A Troy ounce is 31.15 grams of silver and can be bought at £16-22

Best value for silver content will be bullion grade coins and regular bars. Get whichever one is cheaper at the time.

It seems to me that the Royal Mint is over-producing and/or over-pricing ... i.e. being greedy and spoiling their own market in the process.

You got it!

RECTANGLE DRAGON $1 BAR 2020
22,62 euros or 19.92 pounds.

Not a deal in my book, but I have seen very high premiums on this bar, so I thought I'd share for those interested.

I was thinking about it, but I'm not convinced 1 kilo bars are such a great idea. They must be a pain to sell on.

That went fast 😉

No crystal ball for the future but folks don't seem to have an issue shifting KG+ lumps of loveliness on the forum. Even if they're a bit pre-loved Kookaburra products are always popular by the seems of it. This is a big Kook' for plain stacking price in the current situation. If I hadn't already indulged a little already this month I would have busted a finger clicking add to basket myself 😁

I would snap these up right now if I hadn’t achieved my monthly silver target.

Why you can't believe these are still available? What makes it a good deal?

Before this lockdown and premiums going up, how low were premiums on items like this?

Asking so I develop an idea what good/bad prices are and can jump on good deals and avoid the bad ones.

Because they are pretty much the cheapest silver available from a reputable dealer (or anybody else for that matter) at this present point in time.

Why worry about "before lockdown"? We are talking price and availability now. I understand what you are saying though, it's a psychological thing. Even if somebody offered me a sovereign at spot today, I couldn't bring myself to buy it and would rather somebody else had it. Why? Because a few years back I was buying sovereigns sub-£200 and I can't mentally overcome them being £340-350 now. They are a good price, no doubt, but I have a mental block.

Anything around the £16-17/oz right now is a steal at current prices. 

Not sure why I don't have the same mental block with silver. i have a screenshot on my phone of a monster box of maples when I was planning to buy a monster box. £5765 delivered for 500oz. That's £11.53 an ounce at my door.

https://www.silver-to-go.com/en/silver-coins/ark-noah/1-oz-noah-s-ark-silver-coin-2020/

16.96 pounds or 19.43 euros

 

Edit: Not to mention a lot of new coins in stock on this site.
This morning they had 30 different coins in stock, now there are 40.
So expect to see lower premiums in the near future. Hope spot stays where it is...

Is that delivered price? Like I said, anything around £17/oz is a good deal at the moment.

You know what I mean. Premiums jumped post lockdown, not to mention the increase in gold. 

Under £6k for a monster seems more like a dream than reality now. 

Thanks for your answers. Really appreciate it.
