    Hey all,

    Does anyone else own a 30kg silver bar they bought from abc bullion company or have one in their company vault?

    Since Tuesday 19th April 2011 they no longer list the 30kg bars on their website nor sell them as they say its an ohs risk for their personnel/couriers to lift them.

    What they have done however is start to sell the 15kg bars.....

    Funny thing is though they have failed to mention this on their website or mention it to their clients who may own these 30kg bars.

    Anyone have any ideas on this?

    I also noticed the addition of an Unallocated option and a larger range of PAMP silver (they used to have only 1oz and 1kg).

    Too bad about the 30kg bar.
    This should give it a bit of collectors value though. :p

    A kilo = 1 litre.

    Try carrying 30 litres of milk.

    Concrete & cement bags are not what they used to be either.

    OH & S is Very important.

    If they had col0016 on as staff then they wouldn't need to worry about OH&S since he bench presses the 30kg bars or so he claims.

    Funny story about my 30kg bars . . . I was taking them to my secret island stash when they plum went through the bottom of my boat.

    Good thing I had a couple of the 15kg bars back on the mainland.
