For smaller buyers this works out ok. Shipping really raises the premium on small amounts. Not bad paying under $7 premium for say 5 coins.

You have a point there and I stand corrected. I had forgotten about those homicidal shipping rates charged on the APMEX website.
Still-- I suspect most smaller buyers could likely do better than that at a decent LCS (if they have one nearby).

In my state buyers will pay 5.6% sales tax before they head out the door of the LCS. Add that to the regular $4-5 premium and it gets really close. My bet is today the premiums even went up a little to cover the $1 drop we are seeing at times.

I saw this...

344 sold in 1 hour

and figured it must be at least an OK deal.

Those prices are ludicrous. I've always wondered how they even get sold at that price. At my local coin dealer ASE's and Maples are Spot + $4. He orders a monster box of maples and a monster box of ASE's each month.

MCM has $5 off a $50 purchase for the next 5 days. I like how they operate. Perhaps you coin gurus can figure out how to make it a good deal?

Just took a quick look. McM on ebay is 28.14 shipped for each ASE. So x2 is 56.28 less $5 is 51.28 making each one 25.64. Still too high for me to be a buyer...
