NEWBIE UK Buyer Question About Silver Bars

[chucklebrothers]

Hi

 

Looking to start buying silver bars.

Located in the UK.  Should I use a british site or go with american?  Are prices always going to be the same across all sites?

Also, which sites are trustworthy and worth buying from.

Regards

Hi @chucklebrothers I've moved this to the silver section as it's a question  rather than a trade.

Welcome to the site!

By the way, why are you looking for bars instead of coins?

Coins qualify for reduced VAT from Europe.  Some bars do like coin bars as they are given a face value.

Have a look at these forum sponsors for an idea of what's available.

Somebody else may be able to recommend a good place for coin bars.

@Roy

if everyone who said  'I've got £5000 to spend on silver, what's the cheapest silver I should buy?' automatically has £5 deducted from their PayPal account?

Buying from Europe is your best bet. A few good sites highlighted above but others include www.goldsilver.be & www.europeanmint.com

I organise a group buy from Europe once a month - check this thread out for more info. Might be your best bet if you didn't want to buy in huge quantities to offset the shipping.
