New website to find coins and bullion at best price!

Hi All,
I found a really fantastic website https://performancecoin.com where you can search all the major online dealers at once to find the best price on what you are looking to buy. The site has a lowest price search page where you can either search by key words or by selected filters to find the coins or bullion you are interested in. The search result will show you all the items that match your search in the order of the lowest percentage above spot. As well, it will show you the calculated price above spot. You can then select the item and it will take you to that item on the dealer site.
This is so cool because you don't have to search through multiple sites to find the best deal, just use this one website.
I will be using this as my site to find my purchases.
Have fun!

    I checked silver. Found better deals on the bay of E because of free shipping.

    Alan H . Is that hager?

  • I am new to forum posting. Nice reception comments. This was a site I came across when searching for dealers to make a purchase. I thought I would start with a useful contribution where people could possibly save some money.

    Yeah, for a first poster to advertise a product or website doesn't always get a warm reception.

    We call it drive-by-spamming. Also one-hit wonders.

    If it was a genuine mistake, then welcome and better luck next time.

    It's hosted on a shared machine at a large web hosting company I've never heard off (but there are lots of them I've never heard of) (turns out they are owned by a holding company that owns a couple brands I have heard about: https://www.endurance.com/our-brands/) :

    Back to the web site... https://www.tcpiputils.com/browse/ip-address/50.87.249.117

    Shared hosting is not necessarily bad, it can be cost effective for low traffic sites. But it means that if any of the other sites on that host get flagged for spamming or whatever, performancecoin.com gets hit too. Given they are screen-scraping PM dealers to collect pricing, they might be the ones getting bounced (can't tell because their acceptable use policy doesn't seem to be posted).

    @AlanH63.... Welcome aboard.... your post has been met with skepticism for a few reasons (noted above). While your intentions may have been honorable, you can see why the resulting comments were posted.
    Cheers, RickO
