Heya r35,
I don’t have any video of any silver/gold discussion and have yet to figure out the d tube crap. I know it’s easy but haven’t got around to it.
Here’s what i can offer though:
It sounds like you’re in the States if you’re looking on line, and reputable bullion dealers abound. Off the cuff, there is: Apmex, Silvergoldbull, Pit Bullion (he is right here on ssg) and many others besides. Just google it and stick to ones with high ratings — or ask @raybrockman... he’s prolly got a dozen on speed dial lol.
Now, what to buy? Coins are great. For US and Can they’re avail from 1/20th of an oz right up to 1 full ounce (1/20, 1/10, 1/4, 1/2). Some people like these more as they are easy to identify and have a gov’t promise they are mde of what the say they are. Personally, i love the canadian version: the GML (gold maple leaf). However, once you start looking through catalogues on-line you are going to discover a lot of really gorgeous stuff — be warned! Lol
Bars go from 1g up to 400oz “good delivery” bars that banks use. These too are available on line.
Another place you can buy is from a bullion shop/currency exchange — again, just goog for your area. Oh yeah, and don’t forget about pawn shops... although you will rarely find the best deals there — but sometimes...
As far as when the best time to buy is, i would have to say yesterday, and leave it at that. Although the mrket has tended to soften T the end of each month, just a little and not always, so maybe people are paying bills or maybe i’m hallucinating.
I’d stick with reputable refinery products or coins to start. (Note: gov’ts issue “coins” the other round things are called just that “rounds.”
Cheers bro!
