    I was wondering if anyone could be so kind as to show me where i can purchase silver online with a credit card? I spent all my remaining fiat to buy when silver was at $47USD (yeah ouch) but I have a few grand limit on my card spare :D keen to buy on this dip soonish. There is a local store nearby but they don't sell rolls and i'm assuming they are selling at a premium.

    Cheers

    Just a thought ....

    Do you have paypal? Some stores (and some seller on this forum) will accept paypal as payment + the paypal fee. You need to have paypal linked to your credit card.

    All bullion stores accept credit cards. they'll just add 3% to the total for the creditcard fee...

    BZZZZZ wrong. Many don't. There's this thing called chargebacks.

    I noticed BB lowered their prices first thing this morning, then raised them slightly in the afternoon.

    Was a bit odd.

    I just found that ainslie bullion also accepts Credit card payments. I don't mind the 3% extra charge, i feel like i lost a lot more buying at the $47usd mark tbh!!!!

    If you're adventurous Gainesville in the US accept credit card - not sure if they do for orders from Australia though.

    Also if some one was really keen and they have a paypal account they could send you a invoice/request money by using paypal. I think you don't even need a pay pal account to pay but don't know if you could then use your credit card to pay that way if you don't have a p/p account. But the fees and the hassle of doing it through pay pal could be a pain.

    Gainsville only accept credit cards registered in the USA.
    I'm from UK and currently visiting Florida and contacted them - they will take cash payment in their store but will only accept bank transfers from International buyers for on-line purchases.

    Bit of a bummer really as I can buy a house on my credit card in the USA but not silver - doesn't make sense.

    ** By the way GE Money is launching a credit card called GEM VISA with a feature of

    ** whatever you buy ( & irrespective of when you buy it in the billing cycle) and the transaction size is $250aud or more, it will be 6 months interest free **

    ann fee $99aud
    interest rate if you let the promotion expire is 22.99%pa
    late fees for late monthly payments ( i believe $25 ) would probably be applicable

    It has been launched a few days ago.

    GE Money aren't that bad, their offers are great but rarely get a mention by the public :)

    Loving their card offers, finally bringing some decent competition to Australia.

    First 28 degrees and now this, they're fantastic :D

    [del]Speaking of which, does this GEM Visa card have 0 forex fees like the 28 degrees one? If yes then this is one crazy bargain![/del]

    Damn apparently they do have a 3% forex fee but still quite a nice card !

    +1 for the 28 degrees card - it's a great card for travelling or buying stuff internationally
