Matthew does it not depend on price over spot ?? I have over the years bought 1oz kangaroos and nuggets for less than $15 premium over the 1oz certicards. Currently there is less than $10 difference between them at BB. http://bullionbourse.com/index.htm#!/~/category/id=2878116&offset=0&sort=normal For $10 I would rather get a coin?
For gold panda I prefer graded but not for other. 5 gr and 10 gr bar also my favorite...I bought almost Indonesian gold for bar cause the price cheaper when my income most in Aussie Dollar...
Personally I'm not a fan of 5g certicards in any real quantity. Once you've accumulated them in any real quantity the space that the certicard takes up starts to become an issue. For sure, they are good. I just don't like them in any real quantity.
LOL I just re-read that and it may appear that I get paid for every time I use the phrase "any real quantity"
If you are buying just the odd ounce, then I guess $10 is neither here nor there. But if you are buying 100oz or something, then that $10 premium adds up to $1k and you could buy another 1/2oz gold with that.
