Shipping gold

[wogsncash]

I need to ship a fair amount of bullion interstate and there is no way I want to use Aus Post. Does anyone know of a secure transport that they can trust for bullion deliveries?

If it's a $ value you can't stand to loose or don't want to pay the high courier cost...it may be best to DIY and drive.

Which couriers insure bullion?

Ask Bullion Now....

As far as I know they won’t recommend a courier. I know they ship using team ge to post but I assume they have private insurance rather than pay as you go. I was thinking of peer to peer postage.

or just hand-carry on D-8 REx…support the local company …. Delivery in style.

Fedex is the go
I've posted with them to the US

Sell here, buy there, the spread should match freight, insurance and stress. Plus you can rebalance your stack.
Any favourites. Carry on your person.
Worst case, you can pay to increase cabin luggage to 15 kg. Between you and your missus, that’s $40 mill.

I was just worried that as I go through security at the airport if they pull me up and ask me what I’m doing with a whole bunch of coins and bars it may raise their suspicions and call the federal police.

 

[sammysilver]

No way. They take you to a private security room to check that it’s above board, then you’re on your way.

 

[mmm....shiney!]

Yep, just request a private room when they query the goods.

Either you're sammysilver from the future where gold has truly gone to the moon, or your maths is off by a factor of ten

You didn’t take into account the 10 kids and everyone’s pockets full of kilo bars.

I remember my 6 foot father telling me not to worry about my shortness.
“Big man - big dick.
Small man - all dick!”

I wish that was true.
