<p>[QUOTE="rysherms, post: 1871736, member: 46631"]lasers...my boy...i read on another thread of your recent anticipated venture into metals. where to start. in your other thread, you said you are working with $100. just know that buying online is going to cost you roughly $5-$8 in shipping, whether they charge it directly on the invoice or factored into the premium. that is 5-8% of your investment. i commend your decision to invest in this medium, but you are getting hung up on the most minor of details. counterfeit silver is by far the exception and not the norm. i think your best bet, at this stage at least, is to buy some american eagles, or some junk silver. go to a coin show. get a feel for what you are about to dive headfirst into. no matter what anyone says, even the big boys like APMEX and Provident have gotten their hands on bad supply and it has trickled out to the little fish. you can also buy on ebay, which offers you multiple levels of protection. i suggest a coin show because you will pay less over spot. if you are patient on ebay you can snipe a deal. sheesh, i am doing it right now in another browser window. its just that simple. if you get this paranoid before you even take the first step, you wont be able to enjoy it...and she might change her mind.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
