    First rule of gold stacking: Never buy gold unless you have an emergency fund of at least 3-6 months expenses. Otherwise, I guarantee the time to 'forcibly sell' your gold will be the worst time possible. It's weird like that.
    Second rule of gold stacking: Never buy gold unless you have worked out an exit strategy. Who, where, how. 
    Lucky for you, you're here already. Put them up for sale here and you'll be alright (but learn the first two rules of stacking 😉).

    I think you've eaten the onion there, those are culture war bullshit misinformation churnalism clickbait fakes. It's silly season. Did you ever notice how whenever the US has an election everyone loses their minds? Look at the dates on those two items and the fact they are from social media. It's these wedge issue misinformation churnalist articles spinning people into a frenzy whenever silly season comes. Everyone should get off social media, off culture war topics, and back to reality, and stack silver.

    GOD, GUNS, GOLD !!! In that order GGG

    Even though you're being sarcastic and trying to make fun of people different than yourself for peer group acceptance, I will be serious and honest with you.

    No you are destined to be taxed to hell in the UK sadly, and religion (worldly and of man) is so corrupted as it's been controlled by those who collect tax.

    I love God but hate religion as it's so corrupted so your baiting is redundant, if you care you might see the distinction between the two, or just keep being willfully ignorant, untill one day you are on your knees begging for God's help. Remember then how foolish you were to be proud in blasphemy.

    Your Gold wont save you or sustain you, nothing of this world will be acceptable but your faith, honor and righteousness.

    The number matters not, God doesn't need big numbers.
    I pray all with eyes and ears to hear do so before it's too late for them, Thy Will Be Done in any case. May God bring us all out of this Babylon Hell !

    Phone call this morning, steel up another £130/t putting another £3k on the shed, this is getting out of hand now.    Building Prices are rocketing and concrete getting hard to come by.      Can’t see that this can continue unless it’s government infrastructure spending.    The boom is getting bigger and when the bong comes that will make it even greater

    There will be a base rate rise before year end. How this will effect mortgage rates, probably not much. Will these deals be around then, who knows, as said it's a guessing game on the details, house prices probably won't come down for a while. As I said last year, house prices will likely not move much in nominal terms when things get going, but in real terms they will fall a lot. 
    I have sorted my 7 year fix with Barclays, can't see it going wrong at 1.49 percent. No more overpayments now, if I can't get a better than sub 1 percent return from savings that would have been used to overpay, then I'm doing it wrong and deserve to be poorer for it.

    Roy reacted to LawrenceChard in A couple Qs regarding grade C sovereigns & best bang for buck coins for someone looking to buy gold in the UK.   
    @Robda1986 Your answer to @papabearxxx is ill-considered and plain wrong on a number of points:
    If you are going to post a comment about a fellow TSF member, particularly if it is critical, it would be good practice, and courteous, to tag them in to the post.
    There is nothing wrong with expressing an opinion about paying more to buy coins which are in stock. This is a matter of personal choice and preference. At least we offer a choice. As you know, our website is perfectly clear, up-front, and transparent. We clearly state whether coins are "In Stock" or "Orderable". We also offer "Pre-Orderable" for new products where we are waiting for release or delivery, or to be notified when the item is back in stock.
    I strongly disagree that there are "alot (sic) nicer companies to deal with". Most of our customers think we are very nice to deal with. You then mention three UK dealers by name. Although I agree that ATS are nice to deal with, I disagree with you about the other two. If you really want to know some of the reasons why, I could tell you.
    Your comments "I won't touch the company your (sic) thinking about with a barge poll (sic)" and "heck I'd rather take my chance with ebay" are offensive, misleading, and almost certainly defamatory. You clearly intend to cause the O.P. and other readers to think badly about our company, and to cause us reputational damage and loss. Your words carry an innuendo or implication that we are dishonest, unethical, bad, nasty, or that there is some other good reason to avoid us. Your comparison with ebay is odious. While there are some decent sellers and buyers on ebay, the site is rife with crooks, fraudsters, dodgy dealers, misleading descriptions, fakes, and the company itself appears to tolerate all of these, while publishing propaganda to the contrary.
    If you had included a link to the 11 page thread "Do i cut my losses?" with 259 replies, which you started in February this year, readers could form their own opinion about my company, and also about you.
    For convenience, I include a link here: 
    Although you did not name us in you original post, I would have preferred it if you had done so. Others members asked questions, and it became obvious to many who you were referring to. My usual advice is to provide as much information as possible, and if you think someone is doing something bad, then have the courage to name and shame them as appropriate.
    I would encourage anyone with time to spare, to read the thread, however I would like to make the following observations, some of which are addressed in the thread, others not:
    In your original post, you were not completely truthful or honest when mentioning our e-mail. Perhaps you would care to publish it so readers can see for themselves.
    You competely skip over and omit the fact that before you could proceed with the order, you were presented with a big, unmissable pop-up banner, which informed you that the coins were not in stock, and there could be an indefinite delay. We made it impossible to proceed with the deal unless you positively selected one of the choices. you never explained why you ignored the clear warning on the banner, and elected to proceed with the deal. There were also two further alerts before you could complete checkout and make payment. We do this because we do not want anyone deciding to buy from us unless they fully understand and accept the situation, we would prefer they bought elsewhere. 
    As stated above, you were not completely honest when mentioning our e-mail.
    We also make it clear that bullion deals are not subject to unilateral cancellation. This is standard practice. If this was not so, nobody in their right mind would offer competitive prices on any bullion products or similar purchases.
    Most sensible, reasonable, ethical people realise and understand this. You however, presumably because gold prices had dropped slightly, decided you wanted to abort the transaction, renege on our agreement, and agitate for a refund. You also wrote about trying to get a chargeback on your card payment. This is greedy, opportunistic, and unethical behaviour. If gold prices had increased meanwhile, you would quite rightly be annoyed and disappointed if we had unilaterally sought to annul the contract between us. What is right for one party to the transaction is right for the other party. From experience, we are aware that there are a small minority of people with very low ethical standards, who will try to renegotiate deals, dishonestly request chargebacks, abuse social media, including forums like this, leave unfair and unwarranted negative feedback and low scores on review sites, possibly in an attempt to blackmail traders into refunds, compensation, or simply to spite them even though the traders may be blameless, and the real villains are the dishonest and unethical customers.
    I believe you eventually sold the coins back to us, which in my opinion was not the most sensible choice. I think you said you bought some from elsewhere, BbP?, who had them in stock. You did not specify what type, date or grade you bought, and what price/premium you paid. It is almost certain that you would have been better off sticking with the original deal. I can tell you that you would have received your coins a month or two ago.
    You have the advantage that you use a semi-anonymous avatar, so you can easily post unfair comments without much risk. This anonymity is largely behind much of the cowardly bullying and trolling which occurs on social media. You will notice that I post here, as on other sites, using my own name.
    I could demand that you remove your comment, together with any other similar defamatory comments you have made, from this site and elsewhere. As I have quoted and included your response to this thread, this would only be partially effective. I therefore srongly suggest that you add an edit to your original response admitting that you were out-of-order, retracting your insinuations, and apologising for your slurs against Chards. If you do so, it may help to demonstrate that you are not totally irresponsible. If you choose not to do so, everyone can draw their own conclusions.
    Meanwhile, I reserve all our rights against you in respect of the defamation.
    I have tagged @ChrisSilver in to this post, as I believe he will not wish to see his site used for slanging matches, and quite rightly so, however I believe that it is only right that I take this opportunity to defend our company's , and my own, reputation, against inaccurate comments aimed at causing reputational damage.

    Today I received a commission pour from silver angel.  4.4 oz hand poured Celtic knotwork cross in .999 silver.  It looks like it has come straight from an archeological dig. This is silver at a stackable price but out on display where I can see it every day. It will never been hidden in a safe or sock drawer.
    Celtic knotwork and silver is an awesome combination but the gnarly ripples and natural features of a hand pour takes it to another level for me.

    Finally have some time to post these recent additions. A stunning 2021 The Queen's Beasts Completer Five-Ounce Silver Proof! This size really accentuates the detail of the Queen’s Beasts designs from across the last five years.



    And a couple of other Silver proofs from The Royal Mint...
    Quite the intriguing design of the 2021 Alfred the Great £5 Silver Proof.



    And also, an homage to “getting into mischief” with the 2021 Peter Rabbit™ One Ounce Silver Proof.



    Oh, yeah, there was another, 2021 The Queen's Beasts Completer Silver Proof, this one in 1 oz. Still, comparatively, the 5 oz is the one!



    And not silver, but liking the size of a good St. George and the Dragon, a George VI adding a 1951 George VI Crown.
