BBP are pretty well known at this point for being one of the more expensive dealers. You get a better service than with most of the others, but you certainly pay for it. They've just started a sale I noticed, so it may have brought some things down, particularly their proof coins it looks like.

Watching the price today to see what happens with BOE interest rates decision, almost ready to click the buy button on a bullion memorial sov... finally.

BBP have lost me as a customer, they want £402 vs £379 elsewhere!

With how much they charge, you'd think their sale would be more than 1% on gold, still more than the other dealers 😆

Is the pound so strong or has everything else, the Dollar more so, gone to hell. Anyhow I grabbed a few half sov's today. Think we might get to the £1,400's soon.

It's more USD and EUR have eased relative to the pound. The BoE for sure is going to continue to hike, we might even end up with the highest rates in the advanced world. We're still 0.5-0.75% shy of the current Fed rate so there's ample room. Every hike will strengthen GBP-USD and GBP-EUR pairs if they "skip" or "pause". The pound is still historically undervalued at £1=$1.28, although this is the highest it's been in over a year

another nail in the banks coffins - well the ones whom have not managed thier risks properly and shave way too many low interest rate products out there. 
Make me wonder as the UK was the first to roll out the big V and other things in 2020 are we a testing ground for a controlled demolition of the economy?? ;) 

Either way as a small time gold dealer & ever advancing personal contrarian economist im 100% in the right place. 😛 

Whats the technical support on the UK gold price?? Not had time to look. Thanks

Since I joined the forum I have read here that the forum way is buy in the boom and sell in the bust, so are you now telling me I've got it wrong? 😒😒

I try to buy gold with my head and silver with my heart, sometimes..........I just get it wrong!

Dddddddid they just raise 50 bp? Wow, everyone was expecting 25 bp. We're now in roughly the same range - 5% BoE Base Rate - as the Fed Funds Rate (5-5.25%)

We're going to 5.5% if not 6% and this will cause carnage for the lower and middle-class households when it comes to mortgages, car leases, etc. Recession to control inflation has always been the plan. It's actually the right call if belatedly so. Shame it sucks for the plebs and those who own gold and silver.

I was expecting 0.5% in fact I’d bet they will do another 0.5% next month. I don’t think it’s working though. Especially if all the lenders allow people to “go interest-only”. Great if it doesn’t affect your credit score but to me it sounds like a default unless Govt step in like they did during Covid and guaranteed no credit history issues. This would make the interest rate hikes even less powerful, making  bigger hikes more likely 🤦‍♂️ 

People will blame the Govt when it’s not really their fault. BOE should have started increasing at 0.25% each month since the Covid helicopter 🚁 money started being paid out 🙄

I guess the govt are at fault for the lock downs and the helicopter 🚁 money though 🤷‍♂️ 

People have bad memories and only remember the most recent thing to happen
