My first monster box of silver pandas!  Wow those boxes are a pain the the keyster to open up, but wow are the coins pretty! Was hoping maybe they made a mistake and sent me a box of gold pandas instead of silver...but oh well....a man can only dream! Lol off to the safety deposit box to store these gems away!

Congrats! I love the way those look, although the premiums are a bit too high for my taste.
I hope you ordered them before the current silver spike started...

I literally ordered them at 10:10 on Friday morning before Uncle Ben gave his Jackson Hole talk....30.37 was spot when I locked in

Congrats, are they all in their own capsule? If you don't mind me asking also, what kind of premium over spot were they?  |

Yes...they all come in a capsule and in a plastic tray in a sealed bag. 30 coins per tray. Paid about $8 over spot not including freight. Reason I bought them is that they seem to have a $40 floor regardless of silver spot. Seemed like a good safety net to me. These are a long term investment though..so am not worried about fluctuations in silver spot.

Wow!
You're talking about over $25K just right there for those 600 in a monster box. I bought a sheet of 30 in May but the premium was high, could of gotten it cheaper if I bought it from goldmart.
I like those too, I am think a sheet of 30 for every year from 2012 and on, the others will be hard to get and expensive.

What, no photos? Money can't buy happiness, but it sure makes misery easier to live with.

Holy crap. Nice buy. But seriously wondering, who has $25k laying around for silver purchase? lol That's nuts. I'm pumped when I make a $300 order on Provident.  |

That would be heavy for SDB. 50+ lbs?

My SDB is oversized but is listed as having a 35 lb. limit. But I think some are 40. Now I assume private vaults are different.

I didn't store them in the actual "monster" box...just the sealed trays. And I have three boxes. Had to upgrade more for the dimension than the weight. They trays are rather large, and in total they weigh about 41 pounds

If they sent gold by accident, some Nomex clad Chinese Ninjas would probably be roping down from a stealth black helicopter hovering above your house to recover them as we speak!
