    I'll have a bunch of Lighthouse etc accessories there on the day - 2x2 coin holders, mini albums, etc. Great for sovereign stackers or if you've got loose bullion coins you need to protect and store.

    Also some more of those awesome little digital scales ($15ea).

    Will also have a bunch of Perth Mint, Southern Cross and Silver Stackers 10oz bars for sale from Gold Stackers, and maybe some gold - so bring your cash!

    Just got back from the meetup.

    A nice laid back Sunday meetup. (The last one for this year)

    Good to catch up with everyone again.

    Alot more items up for sale this time round and alot of bargains too.

    Auctioned items were selling under retail price and even under spot at times.

    CK had a $100 bag of currently legal tender 5 cent pieces that no-one surprizingly picked up even at the bargain price of $90!

    Sold my 1oz Treasure of Australia coin for $130. RRP is $155.

    Sold my 2oz Silver Lunar Dragon for $85.

    Whereas a 1oz Silver Lunar Dragon went for $100 in the auction.

    I also won a 1oz Series 1 Proof Silver Pig for $115.

    Gold Krugerands went for few dollars over spot.

    With many more bargains to mention.


    Anyways hope everyone had fun, have a great Christmas break and seeyou next year at the next meetup in 2012.

    I think the steals of the day were the 30x 50c sold for under spot, and the $180 1/10oz Krugerrands - where else could you buy 1/10oz gold for 4.5% over spot.

    Either people are keeping their hands in their pockets, or I'm a crap auctioneer! :lol:

    No, you're not a crap auctioneer!

    Most stuff still got sold today.

    Still one of the cheapest places to buy silver/gold at these events.

    No postage/paypal fees/etc needed too!
