Good as gold on the delivery. And I will chime in with the same praise, goldstackers have a brilliant website. I think it's what sets them apart from most, whoever designed it has got good taste.
Both great for resale. Personally I prefer pamp, both serial numbered, well packaged and available in bars very affordably with low premium over spot. I would suggest like any investment, before jumping in search the forum/ebay for previous sales history. Evaluate whether you are looking for low risk term deposit like stacking (e.g. 1oz gold) or higher premium, fractionals readily affordable and a little less likely to fluctuate in value due to premium over spot on purchase and smaller size. There will be plenty of opportunity in the next couple of months for value buying, dollar cost average, build rapport with forum dealers and you will be looked after with shipping costs and pricing. Smaller bars 5gram and under regularly sell between $58-$69 an ounce on ebay, consider the maximum upside but more importantly the ultimate downside, how much are you willing to loose or gain and how long are you prepared to wait

"Ainslie Bars don't look that nice" This commentary most likely relates to old cast product. Ainslie's cast bars now are of a much higher quality appearance. Of course Ainslie Bullion offer a broad range of different products and brands from our own brand (recognised and trusted all over Australia) in both cast and also the beautiful stacker bars, Perth Mint, PAMP, OPM (formerly NTR), and of course a full range of coins from mints around the world. At the end of the day it is purity and weight that counts and whether some of the old cast bars are a bit rough or not, they are all full weight 9999 Gold or 999+ Silver.
>> Whilst we have a number of reports of clients successfully selling our branded product overseas we have always advised that should this be a possibility you are best to buy LBMA or ISO certified brands or coins to avoid any risk. Ainslie Bullion branded product is widely recognised and respected in Australia without the premium for other brands so it is essentially a matter of choice for the intended use. Keep in mind Ainslie sell these other brands too at competitive prices, so we are a one stop shop.
