    I just looked at that site and did a price check on one, one ounce American Eagle.
    They list APMEX at $54.62 but on the APMEX site here they show a price of $34.61.

    Hmmmm, huge disparity there, don't ya think?

    that includes shipping.
    1. What does the display price include?
    The display price listed on the results page includes premiums, shipping, insurance, and brokerage fees. The price also accounts for dealer minimums, which is why some dealers appear for larger searches but not smaller ones. Additionally, the price accounts for volume price breaks, which vary considerably by dealer.

    Okay, I was not being fair and accurate. So, lets order 5 Silver Eagles from APMEX for a total of $172.92 less 3% for cash,
    plus $12.95 S/H/I for a grand total of $180.71. On Gold Shark it shows 5 Silver Eagles from APMEX for $193.30 cash.
    Still a discrepancy of some $13. I'm not a buyer from either Gold Shark sites or APMEX. No interest in buying my silver this
    way. I was just doing an independent comparison as my eyes are always open for a new venue to purchase from should the
    occasion arise. I don't buy rolls or large quantities at any one time. 5 ounces seemed reasonable to me.

    Where did I go wrong this time?

    Looks like you deducted 3% from the cash price. They have a cash price or a CC price when you go thru the ckout. The posted price is the cash price.

    So $34.39 x 5 = $171.95 + 12.95 = $184.90

    Need the following OBW rolls to complete my 46-64 Roosevelt roll set:
    1947-P & D; 1948-D; 1949-P & S; 1950-D & S; and 1952-S.
    Any help locating any of these OBW rolls would be gratefully appreciated!

    I checked it, too.

    their listing now shows 185.90 and I went to APMEX and put them into the cart and had them there for 185.95 (1 cent fluctuation, likely)


    Although I won't criticize since it is 1 new and 2 beta. it needs checking and rechecking.

    Yes, check and recheck seems to be something that has to be done as a matter of fact.
