The Silver Forum is a safe place to buy. i have bought coins and bars from here many times. 
Deal with known members with good trading feedback. For example someone like me is not going to risk years of membership with this forum by cheating anyone here. i value membership of this forum much higher than that.

The best deals tend to go quickly - unless you are a premium member you won't see these straightaway. If you think you are going to buy more than a few coins off the forum i would upgrade to premium membership. Silver level is fine to see the selling section.

i have activated the alert on the UK and EU selling section so i get emails but they don't come through quickly enough sometimes.
i have my computer on most of the time - my browser alerts me to new threads on this section.

Due to a recent upgrade in the email system members should hopefully now be receiving email notifications much quicker

I can confirm that I now receive emails really quickly. I used to get emails about listings, get excited and then click through to see the listing had completed. These days, since the upgrade, I get instant messages and have even (crazy, I know) been quick enough to buy from Arshimo!!!!!
