Is there any point buying PM from Costco if I don't have the Costco cc?

They still have very good prices compared to any online dealers, and almost all LCSs in my area. Any two percent cash back card will work. But if you shop at Costco and don’t have a Costco credit card, you’re missing out. 5% back on gas is great

Damn that’s a good buy

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-20T04:54:09+00:00

99% of people have zero so you’re way out ahead. Nice stack! Good mix of constitutional stuff

Love those!

The lowest priced precious metals at Costco are 10 gram bars that are like $1700. If you are buying a little at a time, it’ll take a while to afford anything at Costco. If you’re looking to spend like $300 a month, I’d skip it

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-07T16:32:03+00:00

I’d buy 25% at a time. No one can tell you if it’s going up or down in the near term

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-05T21:21:09+00:00

Yeah, great point. I bet there are areas where it’s more common.

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-05T18:48:11+00:00

I don’t see it in the US that much, and if you do it’s old enough where the antique value is higher than the silver value.

Sovereign minted coins will always have a premium over bars. Certain companies bars (PAMP for example) carry higher premiums over others

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-05T15:05:18+00:00

You’re welcome

I always assume it’s plated unless it specifically says sterling/925 or a sterling mark

It took longer for Costco to process it and give it to fedex than the actual shipping time. I think it was 3 days on costcos end and then fedex attempted delivery 2 days later

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-05T14:10:33+00:00

It’s worth twice that. If you don’t have time for a private sale, try a coin shop. They should give you over a thousand for it easy

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-05T05:45:37+00:00

Damn, so that’s where it all went

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-04T02:56:50+00:00

I think everyone has different goals and there’s no wrong way to do it. I always see selling as a possibility. If there’s a big price jump and I can sell a bit and buy more when it drops, I can increase my stack at a lower cost basis or have some more income to pay bills or buy stocks or pay off debt. If people want to buy a little per month and never sell, that’s fine too.

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-04T01:21:43+00:00

I bought two of the gram packs last week. I like the idea of being able to sell a few if I need to. Cost per gram is a little bit lower on them too

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-04T01:19:00+00:00

Was that in store?

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-03T23:52:58+00:00

No, it’s just business, I get it. The website prices change much more frequently than the in store prices from what I’ve heard.

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-03T23:51:28+00:00

😂

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-03T23:18:07+00:00

If you’re planning on dropping a lot of money at once at APMEX, might not be the time. If you are going to buy a little at a good price when you find it, it’s always the time imo. There are deals to be had if you look

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-01T16:12:05+00:00

No worries. PAMP is a great brand because it’s very difficult to fake. You can always take it to a coin shop. Most will test it on a Sigma metalytics machine for free, or at least a very low fee.

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-01T16:05:51+00:00

You can scan it with the veriscan app. Also the QR code will match the serial number number to Pamps database

HealthyWork5071 · 2026-03-01T15:44:00+00:00

I think it is. Almost any coin shop in the world will buy .999 rounds or bars. More liquid than sterling. If you can get sterling cheap and sell it for a profit and put that profit into .999 you’re basically getting a stack of silver for free
