<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 2023075, member: 19065&quot;]There are many many dealers online, but you can also buy from local coin shops and sometimes dealers at coin shows will have bullion. Shop around and understand the costs involved for the methods you use to buy, and at the quantities you buy. Read lots of forums, not just this one. <a href="http://www.kitco.com/market/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.kitco.com/market/" rel="nofollow">Kitco</a> has lots of historical commodities market information[<a href="http://www.kitco.com/charts/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.kitco.com/charts/" rel="nofollow">1</a>], they sell bullion and also have a forum where members discuss related matters. Sites like <a href="http://www.bullionstacker.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.bullionstacker.com/" rel="nofollow">bullionstacker dot com </a>took off with the recent bull market in PM, and there are others like them. <a href="http://www.321gold.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.321gold.com/" rel="nofollow">321</a> also has some interesting commentary at times. <i>Others may chime in with additional links to help you along.</i></p><p><br /></p><p>Most questions you have will likely have been answered in some fashion by any number of people on forums or you can glean enough information to start to find answers yourself by digging back through old conversations.</p><p><br /></p><p>Online dealers like <a href="http://www.apmex.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.apmex.com/" rel="nofollow">APMEX</a>, <a href="http://www.providentmetals.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.providentmetals.com/" rel="nofollow">Provident Metals</a>, <a href="http://www.gainesvillecoins.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.gainesvillecoins.com/" rel="nofollow">Gainesville</a> and many others are good for a user friendly online shopping like experience however you pay a premium for the interface. You can also look into companies that deal more for investment and may offer longer delivery times and competitive prices with less customer frills. <a href="http://www.amark.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.amark.com/" rel="nofollow">A-Mark</a>, <a href="http://www.fidelitrade.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.fidelitrade.com/" rel="nofollow">FideliTrade</a>, <a href="http://www.dillongage.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.dillongage.com" rel="nofollow">Dillon Gage</a>, <a href="http://www.monarchpreciousmetals.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.monarchpreciousmetals.com/" rel="nofollow">Monarch</a>, <a href="https://www.scottsdalesilver.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.scottsdalesilver.com/" rel="nofollow">Scottsdale</a>, <a href="http://qualitysilverbullion.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://qualitysilverbullion.com/" rel="nofollow">QSB</a>, <a href="http://www.goldprice.com/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.goldprice.com/" rel="nofollow">others</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p>The list of places to acquire metals has exploded in the past 5-10 years. It just takes some shopping around and finding the differences, what kind of service you like and where you want to buy from, locally, online, or by select dealers in your state or elsewhere.</p><p><br /></p><p>Be careful when/if buying bullion on eBay or similar venues. There are issues with counterfeit bullion and unscrupulous sellers to beware of, but it&#039;s not to say you cannot buy there.</p><p><br /></p><p>On YouTube you can find a whole host of &quot;stackers&quot; who love to show off their bullion and <i>soliloquise</i>(!) exhaustively about the benefits and reasons to buy physical precious metals. Just be aware of the message and keep in mind your own personal goals, price points and the reason you are buying these things. Some people make impassioned cases and are adamant in their finances, commitment and politics for why they buy. Others just like to share what they collect and buy through the mail, how they bought for &quot;under spot&quot; (price) and make &#039;unboxing videos&#039;. Do your own research and develop your perspective and goals without allowing yourself to get overwhelmed by others&#039; insights and/or biases. </p><p><br /></p><p>I often say, investing is a very personal thing, and you must define how you do that for yourself, as there is no one way nor right way of doing it. It can be and is risky, so know that with knowledge and patience, you are more likely to make intelligent choices and succumb less to emotion.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW, this is by no way an exhaustive list of resources linked to, just some examples that are commonly cited and which might help you get a point of reference online.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
