There has been an enormous influx of collectors and speculators diverting some disposable income into silver, gold and platinum. Usually the premiums on these are very high, and as a member of the general public, you are forced to pay premiums to buy, and almost always, there's no reciprocation come time to sell. At Stack's Bowers, we have leveled the playing field on the purchasing side for you, offering a weekly auction where bidding starts at 99%, and your bid is based off the percentage of the lots metal content. For example, if silver is locked in at $22.50 and you bid 100% on a 10oz item, the cost to you is $225. If gold is locked in $2000 and you bid 105% on a 1oz lot then your cost is $2100. There is no buyers premium for this sale. Tax is applicable based on where the items are shipped. We announce the spot price right before the sale, so the value of those metals is locked in the morning of the sale. I'm available if you have any questions. Buy like a dealer, and not like a walk-in!
