Hey there,

My name is Dave and I'm relatively new to stacking precious metals. I figured out silver has the most potential at this point hence me being here.

I got a bit frustrated doing my research with the constantly changing prices, all the different stores and big differences in shipping prices in the EU (a lot of stacking related resources are just made for the US market) so I decided to make a tool that keeps track of this for me. I make the tool available for anyone who wants to use it on https://silver.pm (which redirects to https://eu.compare.pm/silver ) and I embedded some nice features like real-time price updates without page refresh and a calculator to see the total price based on how much you are looking to buy. I currently only feature the most common and best priced coins since for me that's the most interesting price-wise (with 21% VAT on bars) but I'm open to suggestions for adding more coins or bars which might be interesting on the EU market. 

I'm looking for suggestions on improvements, products to add, competitive sellers to add and features to add to consider. This is currently just a hobby project for me, maybe I can add some affiliate links in the future but for now it's just a little gift from me that I don't want to keep to myself.

Hello Dave, welcome to The Silver Forum :) 

Note that TSF will have a comparison tab on the forum for Premium Members. This is something that @Darr3nG and TSF and another developer have been working on for quite some time. The UK part is ready, but waiting for the USA part before final release.

There was someone who joined the forum, members were helpful to them and suggested improvements for their comparison site. And then this member started to charge for their site, whilst never upgrading their membership so they just took from the community and didn't give anything back. That is why @Darr3nG made his site, to give something to the community. But we are already working on a UK/USA version for TSF Premium Members.

7.9. Affiliate links

7.9.1 It is against forum rules for members to use affiliate links on the forum. It is also against the forum rules to suggest to members to private message you so that you can send them an affiliate link or in any other way to exploit the forum by trying to financially gain from linking members to other websites.

Thanks Chris, as a newbie I was not aware of the comparison section on this site, thanks for pointing it out.

Currently it's just a tool I made for myself due to the lack of good quick bullion comparison for the EU and it has no business model (yet). It's definitely not my intention to leech from this community or interfere with your business model, feel free to remove it if it is. The affiliate thing is more something I'm considering to recoup the hosting cost but it's not the goal of this project and I don't expect any of these parties to connect me since most are probably not interested in price comparison since it can just be considered as a race to the bottom for them.
