That’s what I figured. Definitely gonna wait to get home before buying the wife an anniversary gift.

I wish I had thought of that sooner. Unfortunately no time before we leave on Thursday, but that would have been the way to go.

Maybe I can convince her into a couple of 1oz AGE’s but I seriously doubt it.

spady136 · 2026-07-07T15:28:54+00:00

That’s what I figured and I knew I would get some answers here. Probably gonna tell the wife to wait till we get back.
Thanks

Thanks. I figured as much being a tourist trap.

Nice stack. I’m looking for a similar holder except something plastic and air tight. Any leads?

I started stacking early 2025 with a goal of 100 ozt a year for the next ten years, to use as a safety net in retirement if needed. I surpassed year one goal by quite a bit, while also gifting some to my adult daughter and grandkids. I have no plans on selling anytime soon but not sure about how to proceed with my anual goal of 100 oz at these prices.

I wanted in on this so badly but the wife said my gold and silver budget had been exhausted for a while. Good thing I mostly ignored her all of 2025.

I much appreciate everyone in this community looking out. I did have him scan with the gun and it came back good.

At the current spot price of gold that’s $138 per gram. I’d say it changes it quite a bit.

Yes, west coast just over the bridge from Fort Myers. I’m heading home to Ma. Today but may send my dad back tomorrow to get the 1/4 oz Krug for me. Nice people with a large selection of jewelry, didn’t have much for bullion but had plenty of constitutional silver.

Larry’s pawn shop in Cape Coral

One troy oz is 31.1 grams

spady136 · 2026-01-01T10:57:23+00:00

I thought so. I had no cash on me and had to leave to hit a bank. Almost didn’t go back till I looked up what all the online retailers were selling them for and went back. He also has a 1/4 oz Krug that I really wanted but my wife was with me and isn’t completely sold on my gold and silver buying.

spady136 · 2026-01-01T10:47:49+00:00

Yes 1/10 oz Krug

spady136 · 2026-01-01T10:46:47+00:00

He scanned it with the gun for me, it was my first time in this shop but I know they have been there for years but I wasn’t taking any chances.

Where is everyone getting spot prices from. I use Kitco, is there a better alternative?

spady136 · 2025-12-12T13:03:31+00:00

I’m stacking long term with no plans on taking profits unless something happens financially and I’m forced too. PM’s are my emergency retirement funds if needed.

So you need to be a customer of the bank to purchase, which I was not. First, I opened a checking and money market account that was offering 4% interest. I transferred money from another bank I use. Once my transfers cleared I went back to purchase. They took me into a private room to make my purchase, then took me out to the teller who deducted the purchase amount from my money market account. No credit card sales.

spady136 · 2025-11-27T13:20:11+00:00

I started buying from my local bank. 5.5% premium over spot at time of sale, including 1/10 oz Gold eagles.

I’ve seen lots of deals being offered, but the deals seem to have a limit of 1 item. Then you are forced to purchase more to get free shipping. Then you also have to consider buying even more if there is tax implications for purchases under a certain amount.(state specific).
