<p>[QUOTE="ddddd, post: 2747199, member: 22377"]I would agree that $100 over spot is a little high for cash pricing. However, the premium for platinum tends to be higher than for gold. Lately there have been ebay specials for $65-$90 over spot for 1 oz platinum (the $65 was for a UK Queen's Beast and the $90 was for a PCGS MS 69 2017 US Eagle). Also, the Australian Platypus is one to watch as those can be had for $50-$80 over spot. All of these are credit card prices so you might receive another 1%-2% back via CC rewards.</p><p><br /></p><p>In terms of buy backs, Apmex (on their website) is selling the 2017 Platinum Eagle for $90-$100 over (depending on quantity) and buying back at about $35 over spot.</p><p><a href="http://www.apmex.com/product/102745/2017-1-oz-platinum-american-eagle-bu" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.apmex.com/product/102745/2017-1-oz-platinum-american-eagle-bu" rel="nofollow">http://www.apmex.com/product/102745/2017-1-oz-platinum-american-eagle-bu</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The Platypus is available on Apmex for $65 over (check price).
