in my opinion (im no financial expert) i doubt very much that gold per ounce will go below £1380 this year.

also in november 2023 expect gold per ounce to reach around £1800 imo,  but keep it quite

I wonder who was a gnats testicle away from buying gold today when it was at it’s low…only to see it bump back up nearly £30 an ounce…sooooo close!

Yep, that was me.  I was in for a double sov from a well known dealer and was watching and watching, willing it to go just that wee bit lower....   I watched and willed for too long.

Better luck next time I suppose..

That's the cold stare you get when you start asking about the free postage...

We might see £1500 again soon which I think would be a low price for gold given what’s going on in the world right now

Atkinsons still cheaper with post built in fyi

[Scootermuppet]

Just based on the contributions to the forum from @LawrenceChard, I'd still be inclined to shop at Chards... 😏

Just for clarity - I've never used Atkinsons or Chards yet.

Thats very noble of you, but I buy the best price for my investment, from reputable sources.

I am certain Chards is in the money making game and would not offer you the same loyalty being a total stranger on a forum.

It is your money. Don’t forget to add a capsule at an extra charge also.

Nothing against Lawrence, but from a financial viewpoint I have my opinion.

I suspect that some of their (Atkinsons) pricing is based on knocking about 50 pence of the @ChardsCoinandBullionDealer single price after allowing for postage.

😎

[flyingveepixie]

I've not yet purchased from Atkinsons but have used Chards on several occasions.

Quite possibly!I would like to state  I don't have favourites or loyalty where none is reciprocated to me, I just buy the best prices.

It's slightly disappointing to hear your slightly negative thoughts about me / us.

Sure we do except as a business to make money (not literally), and be able to generate and retain sufficient profit to grow and ensure we are financially stable. This has the benefit for past present and future customers to know that we are not going to disappear overnight.

I have mentioned it before, but sometimes the very cheapest suppliers are not financially stable, and could go bust or do a runner owing money. The prime example I quote is Harvey Michael Ross of Leeds, who for years was the most competitively priced UK bullion dealer, and also the darling of the financial press whenever they commented about sourcing gold sovereigns or Krugerrands.

This thread contains some information:

Basically Harvey Ross was running a Ponzi type scheme, and ended up disappearing to Brazil, owning £ millions to investors and customers.

If I were purely motivated by money, I could have made about 10x more than I have in about 1/10th of the time, without doing anything illegal, just by being less transparent, ethical, and scrupulously accurate with descriptions.

And by offering free postage to all...

Actual free postage, not 'free' postage... 😄
