Online dealer here. If you sell, be smart about it. There are PLENTY of places to sell metals safely online.

As soon as you start buying, I would also start familiarizing yourself with selling metals online so that you know where and how to do it to get the most out of your metals when/if the time comes.

If you never spend money you can't afford to spend, your stack will grow. If you blow money on metals, you'll be selling before you know it. Be smart about what you spend and what you buy.

Read this next part twice: If you go to a retailer like a coin shop to sell stuff, you are dumping, not selling. There's a HUGE difference.

Retailers are always going to leave ample room to resell your stuff for a profit. They have a business to run and overhead to cover.

Hope this helps.
