[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2155119, member: 15929"]So, essentially, it sounds like you want to "rent" some coins meaning, buy them today then sell them back to whomever you purchased them from? Not many bullion dealers, such as APMEX, are going to buy your coins back without you losing a good sum of money. Their business is to sell bullion and "make a profit". The only possible way that they could buy your coins back (without you losing money) would be if the price of bullion goes up and in that case, you'd bne losing market value. Additionally, even though APMEX accepts credit cards, they do "charge you" for that luxury. That charge is based upon a certain percent which means that the advertised price, is not what you'll be paying at checkout. Again, Credit Card Companies charge at least a 3% transaction fee which APMEX passes on to you the consumer. My advice is to buy ONLY what you intend on keeping and/or collecting and NEVER expect to "break even" on your purchases. Regardless of how much time has [assed between purchase and sale. That's not to say that it cannot be done but judging from your question(s), I don't think you currently have the capability to do so. As such, be careful on what you buy and don't always think that APMEX or some of the other big bullion outfits is the way to go.[/QUOTE]
