    blackadder reacted to Whitebulldog in British Monarchs Series - They Couldn’t, Could They?   
    I have bought 5 from the Royal Mint and 3 on the secondary market because I was late to the series (actually Edward VII sold out very quickly, I started buying with George I). If you look on the RM's website there is nothing about the series being paused or discontinued. So people could be buying right now under the impression that the series is continuing.
    I get that they have the right to act commercially, but essentially they are telling no one what they're doing, no apology, nothing. The first few of these - certainly in the silver - sold out rapidly and it doesn't make sense to say that the better designs would not sell out similarly. The problem is the George II and Charles II were rather boring - the latter was like they were trying to avoid anything that competed with the Great Engravers Simon.
    If they put Edward I as a tiny child, Philip and Mary, George V with a crown like used in Australia - they would be great designs that would raise enthusiasm.
    At very least, telling us nothing and continuing to sell the series without explanation is like their raising a big middle finger at all of us

    This is what happens when you increase the price more and more,and the QC is dogshit
    I stopped buying them when the price kept going up and up,and cancelled the ten coin beasts set to.
    other sets have been canned to,to risky to start a set with them now.
    So they get ZERO money from me now,plus all the greed and shady terrible backyard bullion has highlighted lately.
    Took them forever to deliver the box for the beast set,was meant to be 2nd coin in.
    DOGSHIT.

    blackadder reacted to A1dyn3 in Bowmore Aston Martin first 3 editions   
    For sale or exchange from my collection is the first 3 editions of the Aston Martin Bowmore single malt whiskys including the 10,15 and 18. These were travel exclusives back in 2021/22 and are no longer available and are commanding good prices at auction. I'd be looking for £400 for the 3 or would consider a trade for a Sovereign or maybe some British silver.

    blackadder reacted to CoinBug in 20 x Royal Mint 2024 1oz Silver Britannia Coins In Two Atkinsons Bullion Tubes - £23.00 each - FREE P&P *SOLD*   
    Hello all, I would like to offer the following for sale:
    Item: I have for sale two Atkinsons Bullion tubes, each one containing 10 x Royal Mint 2024 1oz silver Britannia coins. I am selling this as one lot, so you will receive 20 x Royal Mint 2024 1oz silver Britannia coins and two tubes.

    Box/COA: These are sold as seen in the photographs.
    Condition notes: These are brand new and direct from Atkinsons Bullion. In order to avoid over handling the coins I have not opened either of the tubes and they remain sealed. Should any prospective buyer like to see the actual coins then I will break the seals on the tubes and upload a new photo.

    Price: I am selling the entire lot for £460.00. This works out at £23.00 per coin. There is no charge for the tubes.
    The price includes postage and packaging and everything will be sent by Royal Mail Special Next Day Delivery. I believe I have priced these coins very competitively, but please correct me if I’m wrong.

    Item Location: I am based in Devon and will post your order from Devon.
    Shipping destinations: I will only post to the United Kingdom.

    Payment Terms: Payment by bank transfer in GBP only please. I appreciate I have limited trading feedback, however my first sale was to the value of £1080. I am happy to post to a buyer who has substantial trading feedback, on a payment on delivery basis. Payment must be made by bank transfer on the same day as receipt of delivery. If any buyer is happy to pay upfront, please rest assured that you have nothing to worry about. I have been trading gold and silver bullion privately for twenty years and I pride myself on providing the best possible service. The bank account you will be transferring to is in my name only and my home address is on file for my The Silver Forum premium membership.

    Dispatch Time: I aim to dispatch your order by the next working day at the latest, sometimes the same day if I find myself near a post office. I will keep the buyer fully informed and a tracking number will be provided. 

    Photos: Please see the attached photographs of the actual items I am selling. The last photograph illustrates the contents of each tube.
    If you have any questions please feel free to message me on here or privately, Craig 👽

    I feel for you blackadder - what an absolute bummer.
    What makes it especially galling is that the Royal Mint pump out any amount of dross week after week, seemingly at the expense of a good series like the Lunars that collectors like you/us actually want. Grrrr! Hopefully, Backyard Bullion will give them a good talking to in his upcoming conference call with them which I think is scheduled for tomorrow (Wednesday).

    Reached out to my account manager again, still no news or commitment either way as to when/if things will come out. 
    Just to clarify the above - my AM replied saying they don't know rather than no anser at all.

    All I am saying is the path RM has been going down, it’s not a good one. Regurgitated old coins into ‘premium’ sets at crazy prices, very lazy amateur designs, new coin releases without any stock, ongoing quality control issues (milking, proof coins with pot holes etc) and ongoing price increases.
    RM is a tarnished brand and they really do not care what you think.
