Jim1cor13 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Hi getherdone In my opinion, it is important to support local business when you can, so in that frame of mind, have you checked around your area to see what it offers in regards to precious metals? You should decide what form of gold you are interested in, such as jewelry, coins, bullion, or a variety mix. I know of a few respectable dealers that will not scalp you with high premiums, but I really do think local would be your best bet if they are competitive and within your budget. It is important to stay within the budget you have alloted and build up your physical over time as you have the funds. So I would start by researching what your town has available, then spread out from there to neighboring areas until you find a dealer who is fair and you are comfortable with doing business with them. Hope that helps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRCHIPS Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I have purchased Gold and Silver from JMBULLION.COM. Over the last several years I have been collecting gold but much more silver because of cost from JM Bullion. I have researched many companies selling coins and bullion and JM seems to be the least costly including shipping. I actually take physical custody of my coins and bullion (shipped to my home address) and put it in my safe deposit box at one of my local banks. No sales tax and no minimums. Check them out.

MEP01 Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 I suggest colorado gold dot com. I've done business with them for over 15 years. They have the best prices. Lots of info. And, it's a family business, too. I suggest colorado gold dot com. I've done business with them for over 15 years. They have the best prices. Lots of info.

getherdone Posted May 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Thank you all very much! I am not interested in coins, jewelry ect....Just looking for bars/ nuggets or what ever I can afford in its raw form. I am sure there are more crooks trying to take my money than are truly honest people/dealers. I don't trust banks or the gooberment and am looking for a stash that is in my hands to safely put away! Now I at least have a idea of where to start. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
