    Hi

    Newbie saying hi.
    I bought my first ounce today. Started collecting junk silver at boot fairs etc but finding it harder to find so I decided to buy proper bullion ...yeah it's only an ounce but I gotta start somewhere! Keep thinking I should have got a coin instead? I intend to collect long term ?.......say about 10 years, what does everyone else do?

    See ya

    Better to buy at prices now than when many "new" stackers jumped on the Euphoria at the $40 - $50 spot price range. Never too late to start stacking when the price is right. Well done and welcome to the forum. I hope its kind to you and that you have a thick skin. You'll probably need it!

    So addictive, I started out a couple of months ago thinking 'I'll buy one 10oz bar and just wait'.

    Now find myself talking about pandas, lunars, sovs and everything else in between. So easy to get swept up in.

    Welcome, any silver is good especially if the price is right. But be prepared to get sucked into silver and maybe even gold just like the rest of us.

    Howdy folks

    Just registered on this cool forum.

    Researching reputable online dealers in Australia and came across BullionDeals.com.au

    Doing my due diligence and would appreciate feedback from anyone who has dealt with them via their website (they have put up their eBay ratings-looks good so far).

    Thanks.

    Its a hell of a lot easier to determine who's not kosher. 99.9% of all bullion dealers are kosher. A tiny tiny fraction are not, because the problem is they don't remain in business.
