closed LAST 2!!! S20 Bullion 100g Silver Poured Bars Just £85 delivered!

[Stacker2020]

Hello all,

First, thanks if you've stopped by to check out this post.

After a long process and learning period I'm finally ready to sell some of my poured silver creations. You can check out some of the journey on my YouTube channel "Stacker 2020"

I've made 10 x 100g poured 999 silver bars for my first run. Numbers 1 to 7 and 9 have already been sold. Below are the remaining numbers 8 and 10.

All come with a COA. I'm asking a very reasonable £85/€95 per bar delivered to EU and UK.

Due to the most recent round of lockdowns post delivery times are being effected. So I'd put a 2 week estimate to the UK. 1 week to mainland Europe. 

Thanks 😊 

BAR 8

BAR 10

No. 3 now sold.

Non premium bump

[Stacker2020]

I guess I'll bump this again. Sad that there's been no takers from TSF. Appreciate any feedback as to why they are not selling

[Derv]

If I can be totally honest , to me they don't look to neat. The pour looks rushed , ripples have over spilled and the edges aren't the straightest. Totally my own opinion I don't want to cause offence. I do actually like them however for me I feel there overpriced given the description. Onwards and upwards as they say. Good luck with the sales 👍

Thank you for the feedback. Honestly it's much appreciated. Back to the drawing board then 🙂

[Derv]

There much better than my attempt which is a big fat zero , nada. 

Again no offence inended.

I think your price(which includes postage) is reasonable,the thing that puts me off is the fact they arent hallmarked. I dont buy poured silver,unless its hallmarked,just because I feel when I come to sell in the future,it will be a lot easier to sell a hallmarked bar,rather than one from what maybe to the buyer,an unknown source.

[Roy]

I agree, they are well priced. I don't there is anything wrong with the bars but you're dealing with a tough crowd @Stacker2020! 😁

We are used to seeing the maker's name, the purity and the weight on our bars and since BYB has been hallmarking them, that too.

Other manufacturers seem to find success without hallmarking however so don't let that stop you.

I'm impressed with your work, I can't pour anything more creative than a good Gin and Tonic so keep going bud 👍

[Stacker2020]

Thank you for the feedback. I have looked into hallmarking in Hungary. Unfortunately it's  much more complex over here then in the UK. I will need to attend a jewellery making course, obtain a licence and then be able to hallmark. 

I will do it next year as I find it a great hobby and it seems like I'll be in Hungary for the next few years as a minimum.

Honestly though I don't think my pictures do the bars justice. As a collector of poured silver I would be happy to own one of them, but as you say Roy "It's a tough crowd". I'll have to up my game 🙂

[LiquidMetalsUK]

Morning buddy. 

For me I have a few hand poured guys I buy off and tend to stick with. Personally I buy hand poured for my self so hallmarking isent an issue  for me. The couple pieces I have moved on with no hallmarking and no issues as there reputable well known pourers. I think the prIce is good and the number 6 bar is stunning. Just have other purchases in mind at the moment. 

I do agree with above comment that some of the other bars maybe dont look as on point as other products out there so when left with a choice between some of those bars and other options on the market.....

And finally this time of year all sales are slowing down.

Look forward to seeing future work as I'm a massive supporter of hand poured artists from both UK and abroad.

Best of luck and have a great xmas my friend

Hi mate to me they look ok agree with @Jamesd on #6. Maybe taking photos from a different angle would help?

At the end of the day they are priced right for wieght so it's people being fussy

[Silverman20]

Personally it's timing for me, I'm all "silvered out" for this month. And with it being close to Christmas, that affects it too. I've had my eye on number 6 like the others, that bar is lovely.

Don't be off put with the lack of purchases. Love to see what you do with future bars.

[Stacker2020]

It's all great feedback, seriously, and thank you all for taking the time to comment. As suggested, here's a few more pics of bar #5 showing all the stamping (all bars stamped similarly). I only have my phone for photos, so I'm a bit limited by the quality of the photos. 

[Tattoedamat]

That's much better the previous photos implies the entire bar is wobbly when it's just the top edge.

[Troy77]

Hi, I personally like the style of these bars and think they are very well priced. No hallmark required for me as these are clearly bullion.

Please can I take No.07 

 

[Peterheat]

I like them you can tell they are hand made and thats what I personally like ,if they are still around after the Christmas break I'll be looking to buy one from you but right now its a bit close and running my own small business its just the worse time of year for me keep persevering you can only get better through practice pal good luck with the sale but not too much because I want one come January 

[Stacker2020]

@Troy77thank you so much. #7 is yours! 🙂

@Peterheatthank you buddy. If I don't have any left I'll make one especially for you 😉

[Connor]

From me, (and I'm no expert), I think you definitely should have led with the second picture. The top down one doesn't do it justice. If I were able to I would buy one mate, I like that ripple effect and it's always nice to help someone out in their early days. Maybe ask BYB for some pointers? He is a good guy and could probably help you out. It's just a tough time of year with it being Christmas and I think that's your biggest enemy. 

Maybe you could advertise each bar on an xrf machine with the certificate and serial stamp clearly visible? It would blow away any lingering doubts there may be.

[Colnago]

Hello Sir...   I'm the same as Peterheat...  Its a bit tight for me too but if there's any left after Xmas i will take one for sure..

Good luck with the sale 😎

[BazzaC]

Think both the price and product are nice.  Keep at it.   Issue i face is I can only pay via pp as International bank transfers cost me a bomb. 

[Tattoedamat]

Transferwise is good on international banking 😜 having done business with @Stacker2020 previously I can vouch for his integratey and honesty, would have no issues buying any of his products hallmarked or otherwise

[Stacker2020]

Once again, thank you so much for the feedback guys. I will work on my presentation skills next. I clearly need to do some better photography and lighting. 

As a follow up, now #5 has gone too 😀

[Stacker2020]

Bars #4 & #6 now gone. I am remaking #8,9 & 10 to fit more with the previous 7. These last 3 are a bit more 'dramatic' so will go into another series I'm planning. 

I'll leave them available for now till I've finished the re-do 🙂

[Stacker2020]

Re-pours of 8,9&10 now finished and pictures above in the original post. I think they are much more in keeping with the style of the original 7, so round off the first series of 10 nicely.

Thank you all so much that have commented in this thread. It's really fired me up to continue and improve.
