    Well I just did my first order larger than a single coin.

    In single quantities I ordered:

    1oz Buffalo coin
    1oz Morgan bar
    1oz Johnson Matthey bar
    1oz Walking Liberty
    1oz Morgan Dollar bar
    1oz American Eagle 2015
    1oz Provident Prospector bar
    1oz Provident Prospector coin
    1oz XAG Buffalo coin
    20g Geiger bar (got this to round the total up)

    I am thinking I will get 10x more of the Prospector 1oz bars next time or perhaps a 10oz bar like a Southern cross or a Scottsdale Stacker.

    I know buying them in single quantities is not an ideal way to purchase Silver, but I wanted a variety to begin with so I have some different bullion to fondle until my next order arrives :D

    SUCKER!!!!
    This is all your own fault and in time you will learn just what you have done.
    Junkies have Methadone and smokers have patches.
    There is yet NO KNOWN AND TESTED CURE for this addiction you have just condemned yourself to.
    On the plus side just like with heroine and smoking you can make some pretty good money supporting your habit by supplying others:)

    Well done! Keep on stacking.
    The greatest thrill is the hunt... meet your local coin/PM-dealer regularly and tap-on your network. have your senses sharpened when it comes to PM.
    Enjoy....

    rofl sterling-nz. Looks like I am in the right place for Silver Stackers Anonymous :D

    SkyRocket: 5kg on your first order!!! Looks like I have a LOT of catching up to do. I only purchased 1oz items. Not sure I will sleep with them. Trying to explain to the girlfriend why I have 1oz coins stuck all over my body could be a bit awkward lol
    She may already have competition for fondling rights so better not rock the boat too much ;)

    I have another 25 ounces lined up in my shopping cart. Just sold some unneeded items from one of my other hobbies.
    I have been reading about and watching movies on youtube about Silver Stacking non stop for the last couple of weeks so it's fair to say I am hooked already.

    Flash-as, go at your own pace and don't worry about anyone else. Your doing fine. I don't like paying premiums on my silver so that's why I buy in kilos. Each to their own.

    btw, I have no girlfriend, just my silver baby.

    I wonder how a dealer's face looks like upon reading an order for a 1 oz silver coin.

    Not all of us can afford to buy 1kg+ at a time.
    At least I didnt order a single 1oz bullion coin. lol

    And the crew I purchased from charge a minimum postage charge and my distance from the dealer would have pushed the price of a single coin up by $9.50. :D

    The actual postage charge would be close to $3.50. So $6 over spot + their profit margin.

    But I am sure it would still be a lot of mucking around for 1 coin :)
