Best place to buy silver bullion?

demand seems greater than supply for some time now, many places require you to go on a waiting list to buy silver bullion

i know I could buy a paper or digital promise but I don’t trust it

if the silver short squeeze happens I want somewhere reliable to buy silver bullion regularly?

  • You pay VAT on physical silver in the UK so straight away you are losing 20% plus the premium for physical. ETFs should be fine, no vat and no tax if you buy within an ISA. Alternatively try BullionVault who buy and store it for you outside the 'financial/banking' system.
  • Wasn’t last week the time for buying?

    I don't know. I can reliably tell you next week whether this week was a good time for buying ;)

    The current game inspired by the Redditista flash mob with GameStop, is being attempted with the silverbugs as allies.

    In both cases it involves taking an investment 'from being a little risky, to d'ogshit' as quickly as possible. This calls for a lot of useful idiots being recruited for 'Operation Pump and Dump'. 
    The early 20th  century phenomenon  of the shoeshine boy has been replaced by the advice of flash mob activists in lockdown, suffering from boredom, with too much cash and access to social media.

    The stupidity of an alliance twixt Redditistas and silver bugs is clear as day, because the silver bug army has existed for a long time and the flash mob dogwhistle of stuffing it to the establishment has rejuvenated this dads army of silver warriors.

    This is not the time, nor will it ever be, to invest in silver. If any of you are nursing losses with silver holdings, then now is a golden opportunity to bail out..._
    Silver has significantly outperformed gold for the past year. In addition to a monetary store like gold silver has industrial demand set to benefit greatly from the green energy push as it is used in solar panels and electric cars as well as tech products.
    Now could be a good time to get into silver however there may be a better opportunity later this year after the coming market crash imho.

    A lovely dip in paper price now but the price of real silver keeps going up away from the paper promise price

    I have a 1 Kilo physical Silver coin. Had it about 5 years. 
    If anyone wants to buy it, tell me the best place to sell it and it's value. Scrap would be fine, although only a few hundred made, Alderney £50 with a gold plated edge? Have the details somewhere.
