I get my best deals on 90% at weekend coin shows. Area shops sell out fast (unless you want the very worn coins). I have not been lucky enough to find below spot 90% coins that others seem to find. I usually get them right around spot. In many cases ASE's might be a better buy but the old coins are fund to go through. I am always reminded that cheaper on the front end means cheaper when you go to sell. |

I agree with tpg22, weekend coin shows offer good deals.
When I listen to LED ZEPPELIN...so do my neighbors...

If you go to a local gold buyer/pawn shop and tell them your intentions, I bet they will make you a deal.

Coin shows and CL are usually best. For small quantities, ebay may be ok if you are patient enough. |

I too have been looking at the CCF Member Sales Section (not eligible yet, but will be soon). Has buying on here generally been a good experience for those who have done it?

I've bought a number of times from a few select members. I've never had any issue whatsoever. There's a lot of good people around here.

you deal with them on a personal level, not like ebay. I love it! made some very large 400$+ sales quite a few times |

Do y'all think that 90% coinage is one of the better more easy to find deals through CCF? Especially if we are talking smaller amounts like rolls instead of bags?

well depending on who you deal with (i know for canadian 80%) you can get "junk" below spot sometimes, never .999 bullion.

Agreed with jake on this one. You can find 90% quite often too below melt but just below. As for .999 here on CCF...you can pick some up here and there for what places like APMEX and kitco offer per oz. The thing is shipping costs usually run up the cost per oz when you only want 1 or 2. Here, you can get it for their price shipped. Still better through here when you get a chance. Just gotta be quick  |

Like others have mentioned the key to most of the online sights like APMEX and provident metals is to buy in bulk and reduce the shipping fee per coin, especially APMEX who does have a high baseline shipping price. Silvertowne has stuff too but never check out their 90 percent prices |

It does seem that the internet has very fair deals on ASEs and the likes. It really is finding the smaller amounts of 90% at a good price that has been more elusive. Still waiting on 50 posts (Without spamming of course!) and my first coin show this weekend!
My biggest concern of course with the internet is not seeing that coin and its quality. And the difficulty of getting small quantity...

I saw some 90% selling at spot on here this week. Lasted a couple days and is gone now, must have been snapped up.
I think it is 50 posts + 2 weeks membership if I'm not mistaken?

Personally I just look at lots of different places. I cant bring my self to buy items with a premium. I always try to get it under spot. look everywhere you go youll eventually find a few places that noone else has looked. ask local BM shop owners if they have any for sale. also look for gold and silver buyers. often times they send the coins to a smelter but they only get around 98% silver value for them so you can always offer to buy them for spot with cash
