    Hi Everyone

    The time has come at last! I've registered to give The Perth Mint (coins and bars) a voice on Silver Stackers.

    I've been thinking about this for some time, particularly during the recent discussions about Dragon coins when, let's face it, we copped a few broadsides!

    I'm not here in any overt marketing capacity. Rather, I want to comment and perhaps debate with you when there's a misunderstanding or confusion about what we're doing.

    I enjoyed meeting several of you recently at the two Silver Stackers events in Perth so some of you already know where I'm coming from!

    Anyway, as per the forum etiquette, I'm declaring that I will be contributing on behalf of The Perth Mint and have informed the Administrator to that effect.

    I sincerely hope that you will find that what I have to say to be of value.

    Thanks for reading my first post and I look forward to contributing to future discussions.

    Regards

    Ron Currie

    Greetings Ron and welcome

    Always enjoy the antics of the brave and foolhardy. Your august presence does indicate one thing, however. SilverStackers is a forum of importance in the PM world, worthy of recognition by the official presence of a premier PM provider (as represented by yourself).

    Look forward to the debates!!!!!!

    Hey, you can't have two welcome threads!

    Anyway, it would be good to hear your side of things though it will make the perth mint conspiracy threads a lot shorter but them's the breaks I guess

    The other thread was created by a member here, not by Ron himself.

    Hi Ron & welcome to the forum :)
    I had a few questions for you at the dragon launch (no broadsides) & I remember you saying (with a bit of a smile) that you will let the public decide the secondary market price.
    I was wondering if you knew the delay the US distributors would have & the headstart us Aussies had at establishing that market?

    Thanks for the welcome all.

    STC, we expect all US dealers to have received stock by the week after next. The vagaries of shipping, customs and depending on where dealers are actually located in North America means it hard to say precisely. I'd say you'd have a minimum two-weeks head-start.

    G'day cobber! There is one sure way to appease people here without unnecessary wordsmithing...cheap deals and reasonable delivery options.

    For instance, how about a aae option from the depository?

    And some forum auctions?

    ...and of course the warmest of silver stacker welcomes.
