<p>[QUOTE="Get Some, post: 1232561, member: 32099"]If your only interested in bullion investing I would try to get it for as close to spot as you can. You generally aren't going to recoup the extra price when you sell and if you use ebay or something fees will eat up that extra money anyways. I bought a bunch of gold a few years ago and the price of gold has since doubled so I made a good profit on it. I also bought some more collectible gold coins that were much more expensive than spot and they still sell for the same price I paid for them then. They are really neat coins but obviously not as lucrative as the bullion purchases. I never intended to do anything besides buy and sell silver/gold but quickly got into collecting all sorts of coins beyond their melt value. For this reason some of the best lots you can buy are 90% silver coins because you can do both and not spend a lot over spot. I have used apmex and have been satisfied with their service. Depending on what your buying though, you can find the same or better condition coins for much less. If you use a trusted seller and make sure that the package is insured and you should be fine. If you want to have that extra peace of mind than use apmex and pay a little more.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
