    Hey guys, quick question I'm going to be getting some more silver next week but I'm a bit uneasy about getting 100 ounce bars I know the premium is slightly less than on the kilo bars but are they much harder to sell privately?

    Also does anyone know of any storefronts that sell pamp bars in and around Perth ? just curious

    Typically, it is easier to sell lesser quantities ie more liquid, than larger quantities.

    Can't go wrong with either a 100 or Kilo bar. Both are Mega Movers all around the world.

    self control to withstand the pain given by a dropped bar on your feet :lol:

    if you still treasure your feet, then keep the bars small. :p

    I would recommend this if your long term stacking - its a little saving on premium, hell - get yourself an ounce or two with the change :D

    If your not long term - then go keggers all the way. Don't forget that with a 100ozer - its not like you can split it so if you want to be fairly fluid with your buying/selling then get yourself some kilo's...

    i got a 5kg bar in a gold/silver swap.....then months later was able to swap it to some one else for gold....there is always a person out there that holding a large bar is not much of a deal..i was glad as did well on the gold/silver ratio and was able to get rid of the 5kg bar...personally didnt like having so much silver in one brick..
    if you can save money by going large, good idea and when ratio is in favour, do a swap.//

    The bottom 3 layers of my personal pyramid are 100oz'ers - I've never found having to paint 15kg bars up mud-coloured & then with yoghurt and disguise them as rocks in one's garden attractive.

    Get both - but the smaller the bar the more transactable it is, generally speaking - so carries a greater % premium relative to POS.

    Keggers or Hundreds? :D

    I'm intrigued - my first biggie was a hundred ozer - a man's bar...
