Commonly Asked Questions

Do I get the Gold or do you just mail me a certificate?

Yes, you get the Gold delivered fully insured directly to your door unless you set up a storage account, in which case, your order will be delivered to the storage facility. Also, if you set up a Gold IRA account, the Federal Government requires that all IRA's be stored at a depository and those orders are also delivered to the storage facility.  The bottom line, we do not hold anyone's Gold, every order is delivered somewhere normally within 10 business days of receipt of your payment.

What type of Gold should I get?

There are two popular types of physical Gold.  Bullion products such as Krugerrands, American Eagles, and Maple Leaf's and older coins such as $20 St. Gaudens and $10 Liberty's.  Generally, short term speculators hold bullion in storage trading accounts and conservative, long term growth investors hold the older coins.  If you're looking to swing for the fences and want high volatility and maximum short term growth potential, bullion is for you.  If you're looking for safety and security, portfolio diversification, or a conservative longer term inflation hedge, then older coins are for you. 

I'm still not sure what type of Gold I want.

No problem.  If you re not sure what you want, then please give us a call and we'll be glad to spend as much time with you as necessary for you to make the right investment choice. 

How much time do I have to pay for my order?

We request receipt of payment within 3 business days, otherwise, we reserve the right to cancel your order if prices have increased.

Is it easy to sell my Gold whenever I want?

Yes, Gold is liquid in just about every major city in the world.  Remember, many analysts don't expect the Gold market to reach its next peak for at least another 3 to 5 years.  With that being the case, I wouldn't suggest you sell too quickly, although, you have the Gold in your hands so you're in control and can sell whenever you wish.
 
When I decide to sell, will you buy back my Gold?
 
Sure, since Gold is a liquid market, we'll gladly buy your Gold at anytime and either offer it to another client.
 
 
How much will you pay me for my Gold?

We'll buy your Gold at the highest posted bid price for your inventory on the day you wish to sell WITHOUT charging you any fee or commission.

How do I store my Gold?

Most clients who invest up to $500,000.00 will take delivery and store their Gold locally in either a bank deposit box, or a safe in their home or business.  However, if for any reason you do not want to be bothered with storing your own Gold, or wish to be actively trading in and out of the market over the phone, we can also set up a Gold Storage Account for you.

Can I keep track of the value of my Gold myself?

Of course, depending on the type of Gold you hold will determine where to look for your prices, however, rest assured, prices for every type of Gold are updated daily on the Internet.  Or, if you wish, we can assist you in have getting a coin price magazine subscription delivered to you.

Are there any additional hidden fees?

No, we agree upon the price and quantity before every order and that will be the final price you pay.  The only additional charge may be for shipping and insurance.

What's the best way for me to invest in Gold, Gold IRA or cash investment?

They're both good options. Having said that, if you have your choice, I would give the edge to a cash investment over an IRA account for three reasons.  First, you have more product options with a cash position because the government limits the types of gold they have deemed suitable for an IRA.  Simply put, the government prefers you invest in a type of Gold they sell.  Second, you accumulate inherent fees, administrative, storage and insurance on an annual basis that don t exist in a cash investment.  And third, privacy, there are types of physical Gold that are not reportable.  All IRA transactions are reportable to the government.
