[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 7682865, member: 115909"]Yeah same here. There are only two coin shops nearby. One of them wasn’t even really a coin shop. Mostly just jewelry and bullion. They tried to ask for $50 for a 2021 BU American Silver Eagle and $60 for a 1 oz Mexican Libertad. I politely declined and have never gone back. I know ASEs have a huge premium right now but if a shop is charging significantly more than APMEX & JM Bullion I refuse to buy from them. It’s one thing to make a profit. It’s something else entirely to make a profit by ripping people off. $50 for a 2021 Silver Eagle is a rip-off in my book. However one thing I did learn is that it’s always better to go in with cash rather than a credit card or even a debit card. I didn’t know that before because my old dealer used to waive the fees for me when I used a credit card and I got 3% cashback so I always used it for coin purchases. Now I’m sticking with 100% cash money.[/QUOTE]
