Im not sure if this is where to post it but I found this website and I order my silver and recived it in a weeks time. The only catch is that they try to make you buy other coins at outrages prices. But you just say no and you get your coin and all you have to do is pay shipping which is 9.95. The website is: You must be logged in to see this link. check it out and let me know

I agree with the overpriced thing... On this page there's a one once platinum bar for only $11,000.00 You must be logged in to see this link.
The ASE is a good deal, but you can throw the monthly newsletter (a $1495.00 value??!!) in the trash. |

I would not send any credit card information through that page. It's not encrypted. They don't even have a security certificate for the website.
Not to mention the "required fields" aren't actually required. I submitted a completely blank form and it said "Your request is being processed. A USGB Advisor will contact you within 72 hours to confirm information and the method of payment on the shipping for your free Silver American Eagle." |

| Do you have to order online or can you place the order over the phone to avoid the internet security issues mentioned by Nate? |

| $11,000 for an ounce of platinum! LOL! I have to say that their price on a roll of 20 American Eagle gold coins is not terrible by any means($996 per coin), but give me a break, you cant respect any dealer that would charge 11,000 for a platinum ounce. |

| Thanks for posting this offer, byro007. I placed my order Sunday and got a call from the salesman on Tuesday. Instead of an ASE, they are sending me a 1 oz silver buffalo round and the shipping charge is still 9.95. |

Dont do it these are the boys from Austin, TX who go by sooooo many names. If you search on GIM forums you will come across the different names they have and the many aliases that they go by. Just check this thread for more info and thats only the tip of the iceberg You must be logged in to see this link.

I called them on my way to work this morning before reading your post. I only got the Ag round for $9.95 and my card expires 7/09. I guess I'll watch that statement real close. |

| Are they the same as Universal Coins? They also have a introductory deal, I received a SAE for $12 and 1/10 GAE for $80 both slabbed by NGC as gem uncirculated. Free shipping also. So far I've received two sales pitch phone calls and one brochure with Mike Fugazi's resume. I still don't understand why that guy sent me his resume. |

.999 Ag rounds are NOT SAE's!!! They ARE worth more than $9.95. I'm happy with my purchase. He sent you his resume to impress you and try to get you to buy stuff that is over priced. Caveat Emptor! |

Hi -
Yes, thanks for the tip! I got mine in todays mail! I didn't think that they would ship to me in Canada. A lot of stuff like that they tend to limit the deals to just the continental US. Its got a couple of scratches on the buffalo side but the Indian side is mint. Thanks again!! The other 2 of these that I had cost me almost twice the $9.95 US plus shipping cost on top of that. |
Nice. Yes. Very nice. |

Do you know of a good holder for the 1 ounce silver buffalo round? Talked to a dealer yesterday who said the 2 X 2 holder is the best one to use because it will not put stress on the round the way an airtight holder will. I'm not too crazy about the 2 X 2 holders. |

When did I say .999 rounds are SAE's? And of course rounds are worth more than $9.95. The cheapest I've seen new rounds are $1.29 over spot so you got a good deal. |
