Any one brave enough for this one?

Gold 1oz Brits are back in at HGM. Only 3% over spot, and currently £804.11. They have 11 at the moment.

this has got to be a first  2014 sov cheaper at bullion by post than atkinsons

bbp are stating 4% over spotf

Not sure if your calculator is working, but BBP 2014 sov, is £203. That is 10% over spot. 

 

You need to buy 1000 sovs to get 4% over spot. Not very realistic. 

 

You need to check the small print, it says "FROM" 4% over spot

[craig12]

ok  but still cheaper than atkinsons  best value is stated as £199  atkinsons £199.76  not sure if the bbp sov is a 2014 or used  it states best value

yes sorry not a 2014  best value  my error

[craig12]

ok its only 76p  looks like used  I would assume , I think it makes them cheaper than hgm as well

I think this is a good deal:

What do you think?

 

For the extra £3.xx I would get a new OPM bar instead.  Much better looking.

1oz gold britannias back in stock at HGM - x4 to be snapped up

the dozen there last week went pretty quick these appeared this afternoon

hope they still have one left at the end of the week when i get paid !

if i were to be buying gold bars i would be trying to get a 1oz example from each refiner, so as i be familiar to the packaging/style/assay/appearance/type of plastic encapsulation.

I prefer collecting gold coins personally. When in early stages of collecting gold coins, buying your first sov, krugerrand, maple, eagle, buffalo is exciting, though it may be just me who is sad lol

[mr-dead]

Not too keen on the umicore bars, the bar comes in no cert packaging and the design is very simple.

 

There are a lot of fakes circulating - sure this one is genuine but may put off some buyers (like me )

I always get excited when opening 1oz Gold coins esp Pandas,kangaroo,buffalo., after years I still get slight butterflies in my stomach. The other day I got my first 1oz Gold Libertad I found it very exciting, maybe I'm sad or We are greedy 

I don't on fractional coins 

[Paul]

although it doesn't represent very good value for money in my opinion.  

Bullion By Post has stock of 2006 1oz lunar series DOG £881 (!..eek!!) 26,000 mintage.

Possible upside in years to comes possible or someone may be missing it in their lunar set.

I'm not following your point about their username.

 

Whilst the pictures are poor, they offer returns and have good feedback score so I think the risk is low for someone that wants these sought after shield backs.  They mention it has some scratches so probably they just want to shift it sooner rather than later.  I've seen many go for £250 on eBay so for someone looking out for an older sov I think it's a low risk buy and they normally command a higher premium.

That they know about sovereigns so it seems unlikely they would list something as a bargain not knowing what it is 

 

I personally don't know anything to know if it's a good deal or not

For any Americans, pandas a spot, too good to be true?

[HighlandTiger]

I actually think the vendor has listed it in error as a buy it now. He has other shield backs for £439 and £449 buy it now. It may have intended to put it as an auction with a start price of £195. I've seen it done before...

[Carpe Diem]

It sold after 2.5 hours in the end.  

 

You may be right HT.

[HighlandTiger]

For those of you looking for something different in your gold collecting, HGM have just put up an Austrian Gold Corona for the usual 3% over spot at £779.85.

 

Only 1 available so you'll have to be quick.

A very polite email replied within an hour, bought from them before and they were first class, once I got my head around the payment system

I've made a few purchases from them but I am yet to receive a reply to my emails. 1st time I had to phone instead. 2nd time was just an enquiry so spent money elsewhere.

Won't stop me buying from them but would have liked a reply of some sort even if a day late.
