Just saw these go up for presell. First year of issue. What does everyone think?

I will be picking up some of these. I think the actual coin will look very nice. It looks like it will have different shades on the tiger like they did with the 2017 gold Korean tiger.

It's a beautiful coin for sure but will it attract any kind of import tax once it hits European shores?

These are up in goldsilver.be now as well but no price on them as of yet so there will be no vat on the import of them

I'm a bit weary of them after I read a story here about the lack of customer care when one of their customers received a damaged 10oz kook.id be gutted and steaming if I got damaged coins.do you know if its a regular occurrence with goldsilver.be or once off?

I've been part of the group orders on here and all mine have been fine and makes it cheaper to buy just a few coins at a time but I would say that unless it's a proof then it's luck of the draw really as it will just be classed as just bullion I think that's the risk with any dealer

I've been in the group order twice and both times were fine - it may have helped that most stuff was in capsules. Maybe the group order does get preference due to its size or maybe it was luck (?). I know BYB has had a milked 10oz Kook from them before which I would be really cross at myself but it was so cheap he didn't mind.

My solo orders have not been so good. Four loose coins all came dinged, scratched and marked (I was annoyed about the Perth bars) plus a tube of the bars which looked interfered with for some reason.

Mind you I've also had a brand new tube of Roos from STG that came toned. I don't even understand how that works on new coins, they must have used toned blanks

I was on the fence about this one. Don't think i'll gamble on getting any now. Some feedback on Reddit about finding coins in poor condition. Contact marks, spotting and scratches. Sounds like the kind of coin you can get lucky or unlucky with the ones you get. For the launch premium that isn't an acceptable risk, for me. Moving on....
