    Hey guys,

    Just wanted to know your views on paying premiums for 10oz bars. While I am new to stacking I have decided to start stacking 10oz bars and I am having to toss up between the PAMP 10oz (or 500g) and Scottsdale Stackers. You are looking at paying $36 more premium for the PAMP and I am wondering if its worth it ? From what I can tell PAMP's are easier to resell and look amazing but is that worth the premium in your opinion ? I have started stacking as a way of investment there for should I just be going for the lower premium bars like the scottsdale ? What other pros and cons are there between the two that you could fill me in on ?

    I would love to hear your thoughts.

    Cheers,

    NewSilverStacker

    Go for recognizable yet low premium 10oz bars like Perth Mint.

    They are rather liquid on this forum especially if can sell them close to spot. :)

    Ahahaha. Friendly Spam Guy tried to answer. Reported.

    I'd stick with PM 10oz or Scottsdale, really don't think it's worth paying an 1 and 1/2oz for a PAMP. Buy one 500gr just for the collection, beautiful bar

    Thanks for the reply guys. Thats what I was thinking about the 500g just to get one as it looks beautiful. Im thinking I will go for the low premium bars Perth/Scottsdale.

    pamp anything is so weirdly overrated, i would rather have an PM bar than pamp. i would get stackers, i think they would be easier to sell also.

    Suggest you buy your 10oz bars from a local dealer in your city so as to avoid freight and insurance. Make your choice from their selection.

    for ten dollars more wouldn't you prefer a 10 oz coin in capsule?

    for ten bucks you get official stuff, gov't guaranteed, legal tender, limited mintage, collectability etc.

    next time your there ask to see a scottsdale stacker & a 10 oz kook, hold one in each hand and i'd say you would pay $10 for the kook any day.

    pamp shmamp.
