cool 

how much you bought ?

Nice snag prophetjul 

Quoting my post in the gold investment about purchasing collectible coins... 

The winning bid for 5oz of 2009 Silver Panda's sold for USD1,388.00

Predicted it would end up high, but the winning bid is way out there I'm stunned speechless 

Price paid for 5oz of silver is almost at 1oz gold spot 

in the early days, the mint will not be able to earn $ if the mintage is high as demand is not there. Thus, purposely mint very little to jack up the premium so that sufficient profit can be made. That how item become rare.

rare + slabbed (proven original) + long holding time (5-10yrs)   = enormous price.
price will be 50% off if it is not slabbed.
Thus, there is incentive to get your coin slabbed especially if U have tons of panda 1 oz in 2007 and below.

Already got the stock from Nubex? I also book but not been called by Nubex.

Pre-Order

All items in 'Pre-Order' category have already been purchased and waiting to be delivered to Nubex office. Usually the items will arrive in 1 to 2 weeks depending on the production cycle and schedule of the refinery.

Because gold and silver prices are always on the bullish position, 'Pre-Order' is specially designed for you to take advantage on the current market price. You will be able to "Lock-the-Price-Now" even when the items have not yet arrived at Nubex office.

For this type of order, FULL PAYMENT must be made within 24 hours from the time of ordering via bank transfer. "Payment upon collection" is NOT ALLOWED  and will result in cancellation of the order.

Hi Prophet,

I buy silver and gold only for collection. So looking for limited edition coins. I only invest in property as I only familiar in that area.

Yeah, when the custom lady realise her mistake, i have to convince her to shut one eye.. haha...

I have the 2009, 2010, 2011 Discover Australia five coin gold set and some gold bars from Pamp Suisse.

The transformers silver coins are my first silver investment. Too tempted to buy when i am a transformer big fan.

Property is booming now compared to 2 years ago.. the prices are so    at the moment.
