    Hey guys,

    Just seeing if anyone has any experience out there with using this serive that the guys at goldstackers offer, How exactley do you 'sell' back your unallocated metals, I havn't seen any options via the website, or do you basically have to contact them via email to sell unallocated metals back? Has anyone used this service to their advantage?

    Also if I've used the mini allocated option to combine shipping at a later date how does that work? How do I use my current order when and combine it with another? is there an option of the website or again do you have to contact the guys at goldstackers via email or something?


    Thanks guys :D!

    Honestly you could use the search feature, there is already a treasure trove of information on this

    Be nice to the nre guy :)

    I have used both services and it was as easy as picking up the phone and talking to them, sold some unallocated silver (and some in my mini allocated) directly back and then repurchased some more silver which they are still holding in my mini allocated, along with some other stuff which I bought here and there

    Real smooth transactions.

    +1 same as above pick up phone ring and tell Goldstackers what you want to do. i needed a quick 250.00 sold back equivelent at spot converted rest of unallocated to gold pm bars and into allocated. Money in the bank within 24 hrs. No problem. Email would work just as well but phone would be more explicit.

    I've used the unallocated at GoldStackers for a while now. Phone, or simply placing an order and replying to the e-mailed invoice with a request to redeem unallocated works a treat.

    I find it an excellent way of buying silver and gold on a regular basis, without having to decide on exactly what to buy... this allows accumulation of silver ounces and gold grams toward larger items with less premium, or, potentially saving up ounces/grams toward new releases (e.g. Lunar Horse). Works especially well if you have a smaller but regular budget for PM's, and don't want to hold fiat which is tempting to spend at times, the unallocated can serve as a precious-metal backed "savings account", and it does so like a treat :)

    Placed unallocated orders through their simple online ordering systems. Emailed the owner to redeem. Have been 2 years storing my unallocated with GS, not a single problem.

    Just so understand. Say if I buy 100 oz at the unallocated price of say $30 a ounce. If I want to get some coins I trade back the unallocated at the GS sell price and use that credit towards that purchase( so full price of unallocated is preserved). If I wanted cash I sell the unallocated at spot.

    If you want cash you sell the unallocated for spot.

    If you want coins you just tell GP what you want.

    So you don't lose the $2 per ounce per premium like you would if you sold it back for spot.
