    Hell if a few of us threw in 1000 each, we could have that for 1450 an oz

    Get GP to ultrasonic test it and make sure no hidden tungsten.

    Flip it for spot .. Easy 150 each

    Ebay is great for picking up small items but this is just silly.

    If somebody has a 50oz gold bar to sell, why would they list it on ebay starting at 10% below spot ? - and also pay the ebay fees ?
    Anybody who owns such a bar would definitely know where they could sell it for very close to spot.

    If you did win it you'd either be sending somebody you don't know $70k and hoping you get the bar in the mail, or turning up to a F2F meeting with $70k cash in your pocket.
    I'd be too sh*t scared to do either of those things.

    My call is it's either stolen, fake or there is no actual bar at all.

    Not necessarily a bargain, but an interesting listing nonetheless.

    130690451751

    10 x 1oz "Government guaranteed" coins, with a "mint of under 500,000". But won't say what the coins are.

    Kooks, anyone?

    Also, check out the recent negative feedback. Yikes!

    Not too bad? I say
    But I have never seen a 2 oz bar from Ainslie before, new or old?
    Has anyone here seen one before?

    Cheers Lunty
