<p>[QUOTE="Crate Digga, post: 6286624, member: 101318"]I'm torn. My preferred shop in town has a 4.9 on Google reviews compared to aforementioned shop's 3.8 (I'm not the only one who picks up on the pretentiousness). But my primary shop has lesser quality and selection for the same price. They are right on par with ebay, and would never let semi key dates out the door without the highest acceptable bid possible. They have much more integrity, but they recently went from their silver bullion bar junk bin for +$1 spot, to itemizing their art bars to $40 & $50 bins. the ship has sailed on any "deals" to be found locally. It's a fine line between offering market prices based on eBay sold prices, and offering a relatively high priced item with almost no local demand. Ex: amark chunky 1oz bars +$1 at higher end shop, sold for $32-$35 at my preferred shop. They sell for about that on ebay. I guess they'd rather have a full display case.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
