Pamp gold bars for spot on ebay

Apmex is at it again, 1 ounce pamp bars for $1,194. If you add in rewards that's close to a $1,150 ounce. I had to buy one even though I probably shouldn't have.

What rewards are those? Surely APMEX is listing these in Bullion, which doesn't give eBay Bucks, right?

 

Credit card rewards I get 2% back.

 

Speaking of bullion and ebay bucks... I hate when a seller lists a coin in the proper category PLUS bullion, to get more hits. Takes away my free money, dang it.

 

I hear you on that one. The words silver or gold pretty much sell themselves without having to throw them in the bullion category.

 

A lot of people miss out on sales, especially when Ebay offers their 10% ebay special. I always buy from Apmex when I have a 10% bucks going. They seem to have figured it out, and they have a lot of non bullion stuff to choose from.

 

If only I had a %-off coupon, I'd jump on this for sure. It's tempting even now, but I need to keep reminding myself that I'm looking for below-spot opportunities. Yeah, they're few and far between, but they do come occasionally.

 

Thanks for the info!!!! While I was looking at it a I got an email from ebay for 10% off. What are the odds. It's been months since I got one of those coupons. I bought one for $1094 since the max reward is $100. I did the same with some ASEs last year and made a quick profit. It has now worked twice for me on bullion purchases. No brainer.

 

Just bought one. Couldn't help myself. Thanks Throwbackid, you cost me $1194.60.

 

No problem, occasionally I can be useful just don't say anything to the wife.

 

I got a coupon code tonight in my email for 10% off up to $100. Thank you EBAY.

 

Man you guys are lucky. An oz for under $1,100 how can u beat that.

 

Yeah... wish I had the coupon. I'd buy another. *sigh*

 

<drumming fingers impatiently...>

 

Well, APMEX has, as of right now, brought in $2,564,806.20 from this deal. I can't see how they are making any appreciable profit, though.

 

We are all talking about what a good deal it is on a public forum... Aren't we? That, in itself, is worth something.

 

This is true!

 

And in the meantime I'll thank them and EBAY for the awesome deal.

 

Who gets these magical 10% coupons? Is it a "volume" thing? Do you need to do a lot of buying, selling, or both?

 

They give them to vip's
