I don't recall the details but he had health issues. It was about three years ago. When I spoke with Rick he said it didn't come out of the blue, at least that was my impression. One of the funny things about buying from him was you'd never know when you get a hold of him. There were no...

I haven't bought much in recent years and mostly used to buy from Peter Davis (RIP). Who are the reputable and/or low margin dealers in Melbourne these days? Mainly interested in nuggets/roos but don't mind sovereigns, krugers, etc. Not so much XAG. I haven't logged in for a while, I sense...

All silver bars sold.

Ok - have some time now to offload remaining bars. The remaining bars are 4x 1kg bars; 3 pamps and and ABC bar. I would prefer to sell the lot to one buyer. Will take best offer. For Melbourne buyers. Send a PM if you are interested. If you sent messages in July please resend as there were...

The 5kg and ABC 1kg bars (on the left above) are sold. I have prospective buyers for the other bars. If you are one of those please be patient as I may need to defer F2F sale until August (snowed under for the next fortnight).

Sorting through messages, have likely buyers but TBC. Will post updates if/when sold.

Sadly I am selling off some of my silver. No certificates but most or all were bought from the late great Peter Davis many moons ago. Bars available are as pictured except for a 1kg ABC Bullion silver bar I forgot to photo with these: 1x 5kg bar 7x 1kg bars Initially looking to sell 6kg but...

Yeah I just found out, still in shock. Apparently about three months ago. If anyone knows how I can get in touch with Rick who used to work with him drop a message in my inbox. Hands down my favourite bullion dealer in Melbourne - by a mile. Didn't give a shit about impressing customers...

Web site is suspended and phone not working. Is he still in business?

When considering 'exotic' metals be aware that they may have different storage/handling requirements and may not be as liquid when you want to sell. Gold is about as liquid as you'll get.

Even if GATA was right about this, has anything GATA ever said been reflected in movements in metal prices? I can't recall any... boy who cried wolf and all that.

The ATO has published info on how to test if you are a contractor (consultant) or employee. It should only be used as a guide but gives you an indication if this is a possibility. Things have changed from 10-15 years ago and there is a lot less flexibility. If you can operate as a business...

Novated leases apparently can be good if your circumstances suit. Doesn't really suit me at the moment though so I don't have first hand experience. When you are PAYG you really are limited. If you have a vocation is can be performed remotely (i.e., programming, administrative work) then the PT...

Would you take that attitude with a business partner as well? I wouldn't want to be in any relationship with you by the sounds of it.

No. That's not a great way to build trust.
