Black Friday: How To?

[g33x0r]

Hey Guys,

This will be my first Black Friday since I've been stacking.  So far I'm not noticing anything listed on the main sites I usually check, APMEX, JM, Provident, SD, etc.  Do they usually post deals up a day or two in advance or only on the day of?  Or how have the various online dealers in the US done this for Black Fridays of years past?

I wouldnt've thought Bullion dealers would do Black Friday deals as they aren't going to sell bullion for under spot or sell numismatics for under market value. I would have thought the most one could expect is maybe free shipping?

Black Friday over in the UK is basically selling off old stock ready for new stock, so it's mainly Tech products that they are clearing out ready for the new models to be sold. It doesn't really apply to Bullion or Collectables as they are going to be worth the same if not more in the coming months/years. To me it wouldn't make sense to sell off stock of pm cheap as they are just going to buy the same stock back in again....

I know Black Friday is a lot bigger in the US then it is over here so maybe different for you guys.

It would be great if Bullion dealers did do Black Friday deals so i will be keeping an eye out as i hadn't even thought about it but i think it would be too good to be true

Well maybe not selling for under spot, but maybe reducing their premiums for a day or something.  I'd definitely get in on some more junk silver and generics if the premiums are low enough.

If it is a thing then this is great. I suppose i just never thought Black Friday was something that would be taken up by the PM dealers. I shall certainly be keeping an eye out!

The Silver Mountain here in the Netherlands is having some Black Friday deals, mostly a matter of them lowering their premiums somewhat.

I can't really be tempted to buy any of these deals, but sharing is caring, so; https://www.thesilvermountain.nl/nl/aanbiedingen/blackfriday/

And the European Mint are also coming out to play during Black Friday. Just received this email, which will appeal more to the collectors among us rather than to the stackers.

I don't have anything to add except to commend you for proper spelling and grammar. 

That makes me feel a little bit better today.

Well what do you know?  Provident is going to have some Black Friday deals after all and it looks like a deal every day next week (except Thursday):

Best way to get the deals is to sign up for newsletters through each bullion dealers website

I wouldn't get too excited. What matters is whether their prices are lower than other dealers, not whether they're lower than their usual prices. Provident isn't usually the lowest, so I'd expect Silver.com and SD Bullion to still be lowest.

Awesome black Friday deal number 1.  SD has 25 face of 50 cent pieces at spot right now, any quantity!  Check it

lot of gold at HGM 1% over spot including fractionals

[gustavus]

Coininvest has free shipping for orders over 1000£ or equal amount of € at friday

Royal Mint Bullion has a Black Friday Event. It’s not fantastic. Up to 25% off ... which by the looks is just off spot, I guess 25% off the price would be pretty mental!

[Coolrico]

Turns out it is a thing after all! The royal mint one could be good.

For those watching here that may not have as much experience (with the Royal mint Bullion) yet; if you don't have a verified account at the Royal Mint Bullion already, you can forget about buying any Black Friday deals over there. Then you can rather settle for Christmas instead...

It can be a proper faff setting up a account.

I’m not keen but the Mrs was. She loves Paddington. She got a couple... I’d have preferred a Dominos for dinner instead.

Flopsy and 2018 Peter rabbit silvers half price too. Not bad

I saw a couple people post on other threads there interest in the 2018 Perth Mint gold dragon coin bars.  Provident Metals has an early Black Friday special on them today for spot.  FYI.
