To whom will you sell your stack/bullion?

mariner67mariner67 Posts: 2,746 ✭✭✭
Wondering what the plan is.....when you want or need to sell your gold or silver you have been stacking where will you go?
LCS? Online auction or dealers? Craig's list(just kidding), BST or where? Leave to heirs? FeeBay?
I did a forum search but nothing came up.
Seems quite a few of us here stack for various reasons but what is the exit strategy?

    eBay for Silver and small gold (less than 1 oz) , APMEX for 1 oz gold or larger.

    Generally, I'd prefer the BST or other free venues as a first try. One ounce or larger gold, I'd probably go APMEX. First we need a pop in the price.

    I am hoping to pass it all on, I will try to never put myself in a situation where I will "need" to sell, and thus will pass it all on to my daughter... Whom will probably sell it three days after she receives it...lol.

    If I did find myself in a situation where I would need to sell, I guess the timeline would determine where I would sell. The shorter the timeline, the closer to home I would sell.

    Smaller items:
    Shortest timeline: Local B&M
    More than a week: BST Board / the Bay.

    Larger Items:
    Shortest timeline: B&M (Offer depending)
    More than a week: Probably APMEX and friends on the BST board.

    I have sold PMs only once (To make a mortgage payment).

    Leave to heirs?

    This, because she has been educated in the process of it all. And when I die, I hope she pays off all bills with the life insurance money first, then invests at least 70% of what's left in the game, but that will be her decision.

    I wouldn't sell anything significant until I've made several phone calls.

    Where I buy it is where I sell it. At the shop.

    I sold to apmex in the past when gold hit $1900 and silver at $45.

    If spot would move to a price favorable with cost, it shouldn't be THAT hard to cut a fair deal somewhere. For the average folk, trying to get $50 - $70 over spot for a 1 ounce AGE like the bigger players do is a fool's errand at best.

    I have sold over $35,000 worth on Craigslist. There are always buyers.

    Small sales, meet at bank cash machine or Starbucks and exchange.

    Large amounts, meet at buyer's bank, he gets cashier check payable to me.

    I too have had success with CL, but on the buy side mostly at below spot.

    BST on the sale side.

    I see you are cautious when dealing on this venue. Congratulations... there are almost weekly cases of people meeting death or serious injury when dealing on Craigslist.... Cheers, RickO

    The title of this thread is profoundly impossible to answer, due to the words "exactly" and "where".
    When in doubt, don't.

    good place for a fed sting involving large amounts that require federal paperwork.
