O.k. all of you stackers out there, where is a respectable Mint in America that doesn't charge an arm and a leg and that has some bullion in stock that they will ship. My "friend" (actually my Dad) was on the phone today with one of the Fox advertisers and they were proud to sell him bullion for $36/oz and (checks internet)... Dad, slv spot is around $25 atm. That's one heck of a markup / boomer savings remover.

So guys, here's the question:

Which mint has verifiable silver bullion, has it for a decent price and will ship to an address in the U.S.

Extra question: what are the most common pitfalls when buying silver online.

Local coin shop. ASEs.

Or eBay from a reputable dealer.

Selling, again eBay or local coin shop.

You only get screwed on markup if you dump a bunch on the local coin shop.

If you sell yourself you can get back your premium.

ASEs we're about $20/ea this time last year, they're about $35/ea now.

Could be $50 or $100 this time next year.

The hole in the ground guy doesn't understand passing on generational wealth.

Say your dad got this idea at your age.

Could've picked up an oz of gold for about $50 to $100. 50 years later that same coin is $1800.

Say your dad got this idea at your age.

He didn't but my Grandad did, those coins got stolen though since my Dad stored them in his house. Idiot. But he's my Dad and I still love him despite his faults. Speaking of his faults, getting into the ebay market system would not be one of his fortes. What I'm looking for is a non-predatory Mint that will sell bullion with reasonable fees. Is that even a thing?

Ya, I forget the name, but there's a us based mint with low fees.

I've just gone with apmex, bullion exchange.

Most people don't like the fees, but then forget it's free shipping.

You can save by going to the mint yourself.

The cheapest way is to scour estate sales.

apmex Thanks for the link! Just went there and they have 1oz bars "for as low as" $32.37 in stock which is a hell of a lot better than $36+.
