Anyone used Coin Invest recently?

[pablitto83]

Anyone used coinvest recently? Looking for a tube of silver, that are difficult to get in UK (at least in a good price). Are there any brokarege cost for orders under 1000 euro/gbp? And what are roughly shipping costs - that shows only at the end of purchase process..

Hello,

I've used them a few times, their prices are up there with Europa Bullion and Auragentum and sometimes even beating them. The staff are pleasant when you need help on something. The downsides are that you have to wait usually 1/2 weeks before they ship so it can take up to 3 weeks for your Coins etc to arrive. Europa Bullion nearly ships on the same day after payment arrives. They have to source some Coins and that is why there is a delay according to a rep I was speaking to. Silver to Go is connected to them as well. Don't forget the 20 Percent VAT as well if your in Scotland.

Regards,

John.

@pablitto83, I have moved your post to a new topic as the deals topic is for members to share deals they find. As your question is inviting discussions it was better suited to a separate topic.  

There are also some topics already on the forum about coin invest, you may wish to also search for those. Don't forget to also add the dreaded VAT and custom charges etc if importing form outside of the UK, as mentioned in John79's post above.

There is a member here who is selling tubes of 25 silver coins:  

For example:  25x 1oz Silver Britannia’s 2021 & Tube BU £562.50  RMSD Included  

But you will need to upgrade to your membership in order to view sale items advertised within 72 hours (if I remembered correctly)

It'll probably save you the hassle of buying from Europe with the extra VAT and import duty.

Just purchased some gold coins from Coininvest. I waited for 30 days to receive my order.

There's a Shipping & Handling fee of £13.95. If your order is more than £900, there's an additional £30 for customs declaration fee. 

Then the UPS will charge you £10 processing fee in addition to the VAT.
