Goldmart.com sells them regularly for $2.59 over spot, which would be $37.29 right now. Just don't pay by credit card if you want the best prices.

I've noticed the credit/debit purchases being more pricey. How to you guys pay? It seems like if I go through all the hassle of getting a cashiers check or money order that the processing on their end takes a very long time?

It definitely takes longer for the other ways. If its a small purchase credits the easiest its not worth the hassle to save 4 or 5 dollars imo. But if youre making a large purchase where the savings would be substantial a bank transfer or check is probably the easiest way

I get what you mean basebal. I usually make $150 to $250 purchases from Provident, so next time it might be worth it to try a transfer or check.

TBK, sell me some for $3.50 over? I just ordered a few off the bay for $38.50 w/ free shipping. Not bad I suppose. The seller had 20 available for Buy It Now and I ordered 3, they were gone within minutes. Craziness!!

3 dollars over is a great deal. You might have just become a supplier for the site lol

Yeah, no problem guys as long as I don't lose money shipping which shouldn't be a problem as usps first class is under $5 for most smaller loads I'm cool with helping my fellow brothers out. Shoot me a PM guys

I ship all my PMs USPs first class and its rarely over $2 anywhere in the US.
Plus the cost of packaging. I get a package of bubble wrap envelopes aat $0.50 a piece so. Its not too bad. I will definitely let you know Tbk. Thank you!

The last 10 I bought were $33. At that time, I believe they were $3 over spot. I remember some of the big silver houses wanting $5 - $7 over during that time.

carmykle I remember it being similar to that here. When silver was $28 an oz. I was paying $3.50 over spot at my local shop and usually the same on ebay. Now that its $34+ an oz, the premium goes up? Not sure I understand. lol

Quote: I've noticed the credit/debit purchases being more pricey. How to you guys pay? I pay via personal check. That adds about 6 days to the shipping time. Too bad that they don't just call my CU on their 800 line and verify the check in 5 minutes. Oh, well. Waiting for the shipment to arrive IS part of the excitement of adding to the hoard.

I pay $1.00 over spot for ASE's from a local coin dealer that just deals in it as a second job. No store he just goes to coin shows etc. I then look for deals when APMEX or some one else has a special. I don't collect ASE's so having the latest and greatest recent mintage is not important to me. That's not to say at times I will not buy a special edition of ASE's such as the last two releases or proofs.

Yeah, its no problem for me to get them just let me know. I always use usps first class and buy mailers in bulk so I can ship anything under say 10 ounces for no more then $4. I would just do it as a favor I'm not looking to make profit of you colo especially after the help you gave me on making my homemade bars.
