The future of Group Orders & Exclusive EU Mint discount code

[BackyardBullion]

With the huge ridiculous 2000 oz group order landing in the not too distant future I wanted to give an update about future group orders between now and Christmas. 

Also, we have an exclusive discount code to use with European Mint for 50% off shipping, continue reading to find out more!

First - The future of the Group orders for 2018

This latest order is nearly 2000 oz's. It takes a lot of time to organise, process and arrange. Not to mention take delivery and package to everyone involved. When I say Mrs BYB and I are somewhat quaking in our boots at the anticipation of the work ahead of us these next two weeks it is not an understatement - putting it bluntly we are bricking it!

We have also got a lot on in our personal and professional lives right now and as such we are going to have a breather from group orders - not a long one, but we need a break. 

Our plan is to run only one more group order between now and Christmas.

We are going to open a 4 weekend long group order starting on 27th & 28th October and finishing on 17th & 18th November. The plan is that we can get things done and delivered in the first week of December. This will be the last group order of 2018.

We are planning to use BOTH Goldsilver.be AND The European Mint. We know there is still demand for using GS.be because of the range of coins they have to offer. However it would be unwise to ignore the competitive prices available from the European Mint. More information on how this order will work will follow in due course. 

In the meantime, consider yourself warned about the next group order!

EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT CODE FROM THE EUROPEAN MINT!!!!

So, that leaves a fair old gap between now and the next order. You might be wondering how you are going to buy your cheap silver without the BYB's to help!

Well you still can. I have arranged an exclusive discount code with The European Mint for 50% off your ***shipping costs*** for any order of any size. This code is exclusive for Silver Forum members and as such I am not advertising this code on YouTube, just here. 

******Please note that the 50% discount only applies to the base cost of shipping, you are still liable for the "VAT" or tax on the shipping costs. 

This code is valid immediately and will be valid until 21st October 2018.

To take advantage of this offer use the following code:

"TSFBYB50"

You will need to add your code AFTER you have selected your shipping options for it to apply - like so:

In aid of full transparency - I (BYB) do NOT collect any commission from the use of this code, it is simply something I have negotiated on the silver forum's behalf.

This code can be used more than once and there is no minimum or maximum order required to use it. 

This shipping discount, combined with the cheaper unit prices per coin (for some coins) will actually make using EU mint cheaper than GS.be for most of your basic bullion coins, including the Queen's beast series. 

A massive thank you to The European Mint for offering this discount code, they did not have to do this and it shows how much they value our business! 

If you have any questions or would like to add anything please feel free to ask here or drop me a PM. 

Thank you all and enjoy your shipping discount!

Thankyou European mint for this discount code, I was looking to get some silver from them soon and thx to this discount code I will definitely be using them.

If they could offer a permanent shipping discount for forum members I will probably use them all the time.

Phew... for a second there i thought that was no more group orders 😕

Thanks for that byb. Completely understand you taking a wee break from these orders.

 

Just to check if I've got this example right for the EM shipping:

Shipping for under 500g is listed as 20 euros,

We 50% that to 10 euros, then add 20% vat, which takes it to 12 euros. (which in gbp is roughly £11.00)

?

Yes that is correct.

Is there a list of the coins that EU-mint offers at the same or cheaper price?

Maybe I will put some time into that for the more popular silver

What I ment was, is this offer stil open -> (from last group order) "They have offered to price match the following items with GS.be"

• Any coins from the Queen's Beast Series (bullion), 10 oz & 2 oz - including the 10 oz dragon & 2 oz bull (although EU Mint are actually cheaper right now!)
• Oriental Border Britannias
• Perth Mint Dragon Bars
• Regular bullion coins, Britannias, Maples, Philharmonicas, kangaroos, koalas, pandas, kookaburras and eagles (2018 versions). Back dated years is on a case by case basis. 
• The new Royal Mint two dragon coin

That was a group order exclusive only. 

I think the majority of those coins are actually matched or better already though.

I'm very pleased that we get a choice of dealers for the next group order. Helps keep my conscience clear

Wow @BackyardBullion, you beat @SILVERFINGER as my favorite forum member now! This is really fantastic! O yeah, and thank you EUmint!

Small question though, this forum is open and widely readable to the public. Doesn't that ruin the discount code now that everybody can find it through Google and use it?

[bluemoon]

Thank you to you and to EUmint for the discount code on shipping.

What is the process to getting the VAT off the silver when ordering? Is it like the Estonia sites where you get a courier to take possession from there?

If they are that ingenious to search the internet for a discount code and come to the forum to find it - then it is all good!

It is exactly like that. You pay 2 invoices, one for the silver and one for the courier. 

[Thelonerangershorse]

You realize of course, how big the next group order will be If we all try to order 4 months worth of silver in one go???????

[Auricsstash]

@Thelonerangershorse I was just thinking that exact same thing!!!

[Bagenz]

As I explained in the original post about how to use the coupon....you need to select your shipping method and then apply the code.

It did not work when I selected shipping either so I removed it and tried without a shipping method but got the same.

 

Figured out I had a space at the start of the coupon which makes it invalid, I did read the original post but still failed like a newbie lol thanks for sharing the coupon though BYB.

 

 

[BackyardBullion]

@Robjw OK - so it is working now?

Yes it is working fine, it was my fail sorry.

[Bullionaire]

Do you reckon you can use two voucher codes on one order? I got a five euro voucher for signing up to their website and couldn't see and terms and conditions about only being able to use one voucher....
