Time to drag the Royal Mint's business model in to this century?

What do you meant 'thought' -

 

They did  misrepresent themselves as Trusted partners with Baird & Co, and Royal Mint as coins and bullion suppliers

RM and Baird & Co clearly care about there brands being misrepresented!!

As those claims have been quickly removed, presumably because those claims might falsely give the consumers trust in that website.. Basic stuff for a business reputation. 

 

Both claims are not there now.  compare - Big Brands take this sort of thing extremely seriously 

https://bullionhouse.co.uk/bullion-house-trusted-partners-gold-refiners/

So what you are suggesting is that Bullion House are dodgy.

Did you check them out before you dealt with them?

A quick look ar Companies House shows:

Nett Asset Value 31st January 2021 £328

Sole director: LYTTLE, Richard Alexander, Occupation Marketing

(Never trust a Marketing person, they are even worse than Salesmen).

If you return your coin, you may struggle to get a refund without taking legal action, and it might be cheaper for them to go into liquidation.

The company name is Bullion House Group, but it appears to be a group of one, which in itself is somewhat misleading.

And as a consumer I do want to know how RM product end up at all the UK dealers, then get marked up at multiples of RRP ON LAUNCH day of that product

 

Then ask them.

I think many, or at least some TSF members would be interested in the reply.

well sure - that is why there is enforcement - not sure what you are getting at

Re-read my comment more carefully, and you may understand.

Nine pages. This thread is nine pages long.

All because someone didn’t get what they wanted from the Royal Mint and want to now take the whole system down AFTER paying for the coins on the secondary market. 

Give me strength. 

Pram. Toys. Of. Out.

Trade manager is not a buyer from the RM, in my scenario the Trade Manager is a RM employee, allocating to authorized dealer network

 

Ah, "manager", but you said "manger" as in "a long trough from which horses or cattle feed."

I don't. How can a dealer make money otherwise?

Example: I bought a SOTD from Chard's and I happily paid more than RRP.

In fairness, chards normally charge LESS for new release proof sovereigns from what I see, they certainly did with the 2022 and am sure they have done many times previous. . Profit to be had below mint prices, regardless if direct or not supply chain? Just saying!

its quite interesting actually, any mental health students on here could use it as part of their thesis (tongue in cheek, no offence intended and no animals were harmed in the writing of this comment)

@BarryWoods,you've stated a few times that your good lady wife is an authorised Cartier dealer,so let's say she gets 10 top of the range whatever delivered. Does she get told by Cartier what she must sell them at,and also if I walk in and ask her,what she has paid for them,so I can see the mark-up,will she tell me?

Yeah, well, it doesn’t need any more nonsense from me so I am going to bid all you beautiful people (including YOU Barry, because I think you just need some love) a fond farewell.

The least you could do is to get it to 10 pages before you knock off.

Barry, let me into a secret.  It’s possible to get to the top of the RM list.  All you need to do is nip into the Wheatsheaf in Llantrisant.

There is a chap who drinks there on a Friday night a goes by the name Jones.  He is the head of Quality Control if you look for the chap who is most dishevelled with shaky hands you have found him.

A pint of bitter, 20 Rothmans and a packet of pork scratchings and he get you to the top of the list for a new issue.

What the good chap Dicker forgot to mention is that he recently moved from the flat lands to the hilly Welsh hills area. Changed his name to Jones, too so he did.
