    I have been buying from Auctions while the Gold price has been high i have been buying Vic sovs.  What i have noticed is there is a lot more money for very early Victoria sovereigns and modern coins.  I watched the coinsoftherealm auction i was disapointed at the start price of some of the sovereigns, though at least there is not any 'bidding up' at that auction, they give you a reserve price or a estamate which means the Auctioneer can legally bid upto that price.  
    As far as the UNA coins go  Its legal in the USA to shil at auctions. 
    I really do think you guys have done fantastically well out of the Una coins.

    Wise words. I think the majority hold physical here and are not new to the game and will have seen and experienced at least the last run up a decade ago and subsequent doldrums into 2016 and slow grind higher from there.

    Yeah, it will be a big ask to move silver, though i can see a snow ball effect happening, the public its easier with silver as it is very easy to buy.  If the dealers get big orders then thats when the silver price will move.

    Even if this all comes to nothing I think the increase in awareness of the silver situation won't go wrong, looking at the new sign ups to the forum over the last few days this looks like a vast increase over the norm so to my mind that bodes well.  I would also like to know if there is any discrepancy in supply and demand between the UK and the US as I believe the situation is vastly different between the two.  Here in the UK we have the rise in premiums of late combined with the shock to the system that is the full 20% VAT, I for one can't bring myself to buy of late and am thankfull I accumulated a decent position while the prices were better, I started stacking in 2015 and it looks like a happy accident that I got in at the bottom.
    The US situation to my mind is different, they have coin shops everywhere, we just have a tiny handful, they don't pay anything like we do for silver in the way of hiddenn extras like VAT. What is blatantly ovbious is that these shennanigans are not just kids with a gripe against the system, there is big institutional money working alongside.

    The only problem I see with this scenario, is that if the reddit guys succeed in their plans of bringing down hedge funds and banks, then the already fecked economy is going to get an even bigger hit. The stock market crashes as everyone sells their long positions to cover their shorts, the economy crashes, inflation rises, unemployment rises, austerity goes back on the table, peoples pension pots decrease massively, and we're all screwed.
    Whilst the reddit lemmings are thinking they are sticking it to the man, they are actually in danger of destroying their own lives.
    The only hope on the horizon, is that all these bored people sitting at home isolating, pretending to be day traders, will eventually go back to work and p!ssing their wages away down the pub/bookies/casino, instead of the SM, or they lose all their cash because they weren't quick enough to sell at a profit.
    Being part of a massive group sticking it to the government, is all well and good but you have to live with your actions afterwards.
    By trying to see the bigger picture, I'm now, hoping that the reddit craze gets stomped on and crushed by the big guys,......The damage they could cause is just not worth it.

    Pipers reacted to silversky in The future of silver, VAT and import charges into the UK now a Deal has been done!?   
    One of the purposes of leaving the EU was to regain the ability to adjust our own taxes such as VAT.  It's all well and good to finally regain this ability (if we actually have) but it does also require a vision for the future to go along with it.  Sadly I don't see the Tory party as having any actual vision or energy left.  They're acting like a tired and half dead party at the end of a very long term in power.  They certainly don't look like they've just won a historic majority.
    I haven't heard much talk of any vision to abolish VAT for a very long time now.  Basically they gave up on all of the benefits of Brexit in the quest for a deal.  VAT is an insidious and damaging EU tax and there is certainly a case at least to be argued for abolishing or reducing it.  Instead, I imagine that the same dismal and prohibitive system that's currently in place when trading with the USA now will just end up being the norm with the EU as well.  It was always sold as a benefit that once we were out we could do what we wanted with our tariffs and taxes.  But the EU have been adamant all along about a level playing field and I suspect that buried deep in this deal is some provision to stop us from making any radical changes.  I hope I'm wrong of course and no doubt when the thousands of pages have been carefully cross referenced we'll find out the situation.
    Given the eyewatering cost of all the lockdowns this year I can't see any breaks coming from HMRC for the rest of my life.  The grand socialist-style employment scheme for a lucky group of people who got to stay at home and be paid will need to be paid back or hyper inflated away.  This payment will come not only from those who were lucky enough to be paid to sit at home but by everyone else as well who actually had to keep working or spending their savings this year.  The greatest wealth transfer in human history has taken place in the shadows and we're all going to be expected to cough up for it for the foreseeable future.  It is this disastrous financial reality that has derailed any vision of a free UK that the government had before the coof.  It was originally UKIP who had all the vision anyway and this Tory party just stole it to win power.  Their hearts were never into it really and now that times are tough I see them turning their backs on any bold moves.  I don't see them finding new vision to reduce taxes such as VAT but who knows.  
    I heard in the local off licence that talk amongst the alcohol traders is that VAT is going to go up to 25% in the new year!  Clearly they're nervous about it and they've good reason to be.  Rather than a cash strapped HMRC abandoning VAT entirely (which would be an incredible shot in the arm for the UK) they're far more likely to be increasing it on goods which can be publicly attacked as being owned by "the rich".  If it turns out to be true that alcohol and other products suffer an increase in VAT, it's highly likely that Silver will find itself under pressure as well in my opinion.  As we all know, the silver market barely exists in the UK because of the VAT.  And we all know that if they abolished VAT, the Royal Mint and other bullion dealers would actually become competitive again here in the UK.  The industry would be reborn, generating at least some tax on profit and wages which would surely be more than the pittance they take now.  Sadly it's more likely that they're planning to hire armies of staff to open packages from the EU and charge VAT on everything.  This will be seen as a much needed windfall in the short term and it's likely that everything possible will be clubbed.
    Just have to wait and see, but given this governments insane authoritarian bent of late, I have absolutely no confidence in them to do anything rational.  I can only hope that I'm wrong.

    We always treat the Channel Isles as part of the UK but they are outside the EU.
    Anything being shipped from the Channel Isles below a value ( around £12 I think ?? ) is subject to VAT and packages have always had to have a customs declaration, or if postage paid electronically a declaration filed on-line. So now that the transition period is ending, all goods arriving from the EU will be subject to VAT but not duty or quotas as that's in the agreement. Buying from GS.be or the European Mint for example will be invoiced VAT free but subject to UK VAT on arrival. Freedom of movement of goods has come to an end.

    Apologies, I wasn't directing that comment specifically at yourself. However I am just repeating what at least 4 coin dealers that I know personally are saying. They just can't shift the stuff. 
    Here at the silver forum, most of our members are extremely savvy, and are always looking for a bargain. The chances of you getting the price you are thinking of is going to be low. Simply because the people on this forum are more interested in silver bullion and proof pieces from national mints. 
    However I'd suggest advertising them on eBay, or even Etsy, (I've seen sets like yours for sale there in the past). Chances are you'll get closer to your asking price. 
    Good luck. 😁👍
