Silver Buyers

Gold and Silver have traditionally been used as one of the vehicles for asset protection. Historically, gold, silver and other precious metals have held their buying power since the invention of wealth itself.

But finding it at good prices, without having to order huge quantities has always been a challenge. What can people from the average guy to the wealthy do to get gold and silver in their hands at the best prices? The average guy is now looking at precious metals as a means to protect their assets in these uneasy economic times, just like the rich do.

However, trying to find a Precious Metals Dealer that will give you a decent discount on smaller purchases can be a challenge. Actually, it can be a challenge even for those who have larger sums of money to put into precious metals. The profit margins for Precious Metals Dealers are not huge, therefore the need to keep mark-ups in place is necessary for them to stay in business.

But there is a way around this. A wholesale buyers club. Being in a Precious Metals Wholesale Buyers Club gives you the same prices that a Precious Metal Dealer pays.

Google wholesale gold and silver coins and you will find that you probably need to purchase for example, ,000 worth of silver bullion coins to get a meager discount. Remember, your Precious Metal Dealer needs to stay profitable or he or she would be out of business very fast.

July 1st, 2009, the first wholesale buyers club for precious metals (gold, silver, platinum & palladium in coin or bar form) was born. The idea behind a wholesale buyers club is to pool the buying power of many members to get the best discounts available, while giving individual purchasers the ability to buy smaller or larger quantities at deep discount by not marking up from the Broker price. Great idea! Preservation of Wealth Inc. was born.

I have had a membership at Preservation of Wealth Inc. since August 2009 and cant be happier with the service. I purchased a once year membership and have access to deep discounts on all my precious metals purchases. I can order what I want, when I want. Plus there is a chance to earn some extra cash by referring other members.

Preservation of Wealth Inc. is the only Precious Metals Buyers Club operating in America. There are plans for expansion into other countries in the very near future.

The more members, the more collective buying power and the larger the discounts Preservation of Wealth Inc. can offer its' membership.

I have searched the internet many times and have not been able to find anyone who can match their prices. Typically savings are 15% - 60%.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. QUESTION:
    where do I find silver coin buyers looking to buy 1922 silver dollars?

    • ANSWER:
      You can find them pretty much anywhere. Silver, being a precious metal, is highly sought after because of economic situations we find ourselves in. It would be a great idea to keep because precious metals retain their value as opposed to paper money's value being eroded by inflation (bailouts). However if you are hard up for money, you can post them on ebay as other have mentioned, but it may take a while because of the time it takes for the auctions to end. Craigslist or even going to your local coin shop can be a quicker solution. Pawn shops id be weary because they are out to make money. If you choose a pawnshop, call ahead to see how much they offer and save yourself a trip. If you do decide to sell, you should get between - each. The absolute minimum, being its silver melt value right now is .96. Anyone offering you less is out to rip you off. I hope this helps and good luck.

  5. QUESTION:
    #Where can I find buyers of pre 1965 US silver coins for the highest prices?

    • ANSWER:
      Probably E-bay. Coin dealers will pay you less then they are worth because they need to make a profit.

      If the coins are nice and uncirculated, they should sell pretty well on E-bay.

  6. QUESTION:
    What's the street price for individual (1 oz) troy .999 fine silver coins?
    Also what is the street value for a 100oz bar of troy .999 fine silver?
    Where would buyers be found for this?

    • ANSWER:
      you ask what the "street" value is
      well as a coin dealer I know that people have sold them in pubs and clubs for as little as 0 for an ounce coin (probably very hot) or they are desperate.
      But a dealer would pay say 5% below spot price.
      I do not know of too many 100 oz bars selling "on the Street", and again you can contact your local dealer or even Kitco, they will buy from you.
      Do your homework on the prices you will get

  9. QUESTION:
    How can I find a reputable buyer of silver? I live in the Greater Los Angeles area.?

    likepepsi, I apologize for omitting details. I have sterling silver, service for 8 plus serving pieces, and I'd like to get the best price I can.

    • ANSWER:
      Sterling silver is 92.5% pure but will sell for a large discount to the value of silver. The easiest thing is to call around and ask jewelers and coin shops what they are paying for sterling flatware. Some will give you a price per gram, some will give you a price per pennyweight, some may give you a price per troy ounce so you might need to convert them to make a comparison.

      There are 20 pennyweight per troy ounce. If you are given a price per pennyweight, multiply that by 20 to see what the price is per troy ounce.

      There are 31.1 grams per troy ounce, so if you are given a price in grams, multiply that by 31.1 to get the price per troy ounce.

      Here are a couple of larger places in your area to call. Remember the prices change daily so to get a true comparison you should call different places all on the same day.

      Joe's Gold and Silver
      Los Angeles Gold and Silver

      Also look in the yellow pages for gold and silver dealers, but avoid pawnshops.

      Calling around first will save you a lot of driving. What you will receive will depend on the actual weight of the pieces. Note that knives will be reviewed separately because the blades won't be silver, plus they have a filler in the handle to hold the blade.

      Also consider selling it as a set on ebay (use a ebay consignment shop, check their fees first) as it might be worth more intact than as scrap silver.

  10. QUESTION:
    How much would a 8 oz. .999 fine silver sell for? And where can you sell it?
    this is a 8 oz .999 fine silver proof baseball card of Honus Wagner. how much would it sell just for the silver and where could i sell it? would gold buyers buy, or r they strictly gold buyers?

    • ANSWER:
      These commemorative items are from the 1990s, when the economy was strong. Silver was relatively cheap - the average daily price in January 1995 was .75 - so the actual silver value of the piece () was substantially below the value as a collectible. This particular item would have been marketed for a minimum of .95, and the economy, as well as the sports collectibles market in general, was more than strong enough to support that pricing.

      Today, the market has fallen way off for sports collectibles in general (though rare items and vintage pre-WWII sports cards have continued to appreciate) and the value of the silver has far outstripped the value of the collectible. There is no added collector value for this piece. Due to the volatility of the precious metals market (silver has risen 100% from where it was one year ago, and while no one expects it to be back down there any time soon, it can drop dollars per ounce in a matter of days). Therefore, anyone looking to buy this that is not going to hold it will be looking to flip it fast to avoid being burned by one of those sharp drops. So they'll be looking to buy at 85%-90% of the current value. - per ounce. Maybe 0. A local coin dealer that advertises to 'pay top dollar for your gold and silver' is the best bet for this. It's fast and easy.

      But there are a few who do think that silver is going still higher and are buying anything they can get their hands on. .999 silver is the best you can buy, as 90% junk silver and sterling .925 both require refining to turn into pure silver, and the scrap buyers will discount. So a bullion buyer knows this and will pay more than any dealer, maybe even a small premium over 'melt'.

      The best place to find these bullion buyers is eBay. But that comes at a cost. By the time you get done with fees, (about 12%) it might be easier to just sell it to the dealer.

      Let's say the dealer would pay 0. You could get per ounce on eBay, about .50 per ounce premium over market as of now, as long as shipping was fairly cheap, under .. The more shipping is, the less someone will pay for the per-ounce price. So that's 8. After fees, you'd see about 4. Now, if you had 20 or more ounces, eBay is definitely the place to sell, because at about 0, the selling commission tops out at a flat . A 00 sale is going to cost you about 8% and a 00 sale, 5.5%.

      For just 8 ounces, the local dealer is probably your best bet.

  11. QUESTION:
    Deduction of shipping costs in gold and silver buys?
    Can I deduct the cost of shipping and insurance on the purchase of bullion?
    I'm a small buyer of gold and silver bullion and coins. Of course the trick is to purchase at or below market spot (no interest in the numismatic value) however by the time shipping and insurance are added to the bullion it is sometimes well above spot. Can this be deducted as an "investment" expense?

    • ANSWER:
      No, it is not an investment expense. It is part of your basis when you sell it.

      Even if you could use it as an investment expense, it may not give you any benefit. Investment expenses are "miscellaneous deductions," and are reduced by 2% of your AGI. IOW, you don't get any benefit from miscl. deductions unless you itemize your deductions, and only if those deductions exceed 2% of your adjusted gross income.

  12. QUESTION:
    how to tell if its real silver?
    can anyone tell me if sterling silver is stamped. i know real silver has a hallmark. i have an old locket of about forty years and inside it has three numbers. i think they say 926 or 921.
    not so sure what metal it is. it's tarnished in the inside a wee bit but polished up very well.
    i'm selling it but dont want to con the buyer if its not silver.

    • ANSWER:
      I used to work in silver retail and if the #'s 925 or 725 are stamped on your piece then it is real (925) is Italian and (725) is Mexican also to clean up tarnish boil water, place aluminum foil in bottom of dish large enough to accomodate piece, place piece on top of foil add about 2 tablespoons of baking soda on top of foil and piece and carefully add boiling water .

  19. QUESTION:
    i need to sell a 1000 oz bar of silver in the New York City area. Any idea who would be a buyer?
    I would also like to know what a good price would be relative to the spot silver price.
    Am also willing to trade the bar for silver coins, like Vienna Phils or Maple Leafs, and pay a premium of course.

    • ANSWER:
      There are probably 500 coin dealer in NYC. Look them up in the yellow pages, then call them and ask what they will give for it. You can probably find 10 or so near where you live. That should be a sufficient number. Or you could post it on ebay. Should be able to get maybe 11,000 or 12,000 for it, maybe.

  22. QUESTION:
    How much for a troy ounce of silver?
    I have a little bit of silver I want to sell, how much should the buyer be paying me? The exact amount on the spot silver chart for the day? i.e. If silver is at .87 per ounce is that how much I should receive from the buyer? Thank you.

    • ANSWER:
      Some considerations:
      What you have in ounces, have to multiply for the concentration of silver (0.925, 0.959, 0.999, etc) that will give you the exact amount of silver.
      Then convert to Troy ounces (the international price is measured in Troy ounces), One weight regular ounce is around 0.9123 Ounces Troy
      Then if you are selling silver pieces (tea sets, candelabra, etc) as scalp silver, usually the buyer will pay only around 90% of the total weight

      You can make your calculations !

      Conversion Chart
      1pound Troy=12oz Troy
      1oz Troy=480grains
      1oz Troy=31.1035grams
      1grain =0.000142857pound
      1gram =15.43grains
      1pound=16oz
      1pound=454grams
      1oz =28.375grams
      1oz Troy=0.912276753ounces
      1pound=14.5833oz Troy

  23. QUESTION:
    Question about selling old silver?
    I was cleaning out my jewelry box this past weekend. Besides my mother giving me a TON of old jewelry she didn't want from her ex husband (my dad) that never gets worn, she found an old silver heavy heavy chain necklace of mine. Its sterling silver.

    Is sterling silver what those jewelry places usually buy? I'm not big on silver (I can't wear it) The jewelry store down the street buys diamonds, coins, silver, gold, etc. I have the sterling silver jewelry, and the gold.

    Also my boyfriend as given one of those dumb collector coins. Its one of those one ounce of silver collector ones. We have no use for it, and figured we'd see what we could do with it. Can you sell those coins to silver buyers? Is that legal? The coin isn't legal tender. Its just a collector item.

    thanks..and please no rude answers...

    • ANSWER:
      The second item you have is probably called a silver round, and the value is based upon the spot price of one troy ounce of silver -- currently about .40US -- though you might not get that much from a coin dealer, jeweler, pawn broker, bullion buyer, etc. Yes, it is legal to sell a silver round. By the way, authentic Sterling silver is 92.5% pure silver. I hope that helps.

  24. QUESTION:
    Do silver coins have more options for selling versus bars?
    I am interested in investing in silver. My question is, in the future, when it comes time to sell, which will be easier to unload, coins or bars. Bars would be more convenient to store and sell in one lump but you could sell the coins at a coin shop right, instead or strictly to a precious metal buyer? Any experienced advice is appreciated.

    • ANSWER:
      Certain Silver coins have more collection value Silver Eagles, Morgan Dollars 90% silver, Peace Dollars 90% silver, Australian Kookaburra and so on will carry a Premium over spot, many junk silver(common non key date coins) however will not increase more than the spot price. Many people collect silver art bars and many have a 2 to 3 dollar over spot collector value some bars even higher, like coins they too have a rarity factor. The bottom line is when collecting silver for a investment any purchases you can get under spot price is a good deal. You will can always sell Silver for its melt value.

    Please checkout my listings under seller name deejay1209 and let me know what changes I should make to attract more buyers and how to gain their trust. Thank yu in advance.

    • ANSWER:
      The other girls suggestions will give you positive BUYER's feedback (and it helps to have that too), but it does not give you sellers feedback. Here is what I would reccommend to get sellers feedback: Make sure you are a verified merchant on paypal.com remind them that their purchase is covered by the ebay and paypal insurances. I would explain that you are new and how important it is that they offer you feedback. Maybe even offer a free gift for feedback trade. Or you can offer to help a buyer who has negative or no feedback.
      Also, you may want to include your local D/B/A and or some contact info like a business phone or address so they feel they can contact you if they have any questions. I bought a diamond ring online from someone who had -0- feedback but I was comforted that she listed her contact information and I spoke with her before bidding. It turned out to be a great deal. Also, just at first, sell things cheap or offer free shipping just to get some transactions behind your belt - even if you have to take a loss (its a start-up cost).... Good luck.

  29. QUESTION:
    how much pure silver in sterling silver flatware & best way & place 2 sell it & expected % of value?
    I've got maybe 15 pieces of sterling silver flatware and want to sell it.
    What can I expect to get based on the true amount of silver in these pieces, and where is the best place to sell it. I've tried selling other things to jewelry stores and they are not good buyers, pawn shops are not a good choice from what people tell me, I do have a Craigslist near me, any other ways to sell? How much silver in sterling silver?

    • ANSWER:
      Sterling flatware is .925 pure silver... meaning it is 92 1/2% pure. The knives usually have stainless steel blades and hollow handles, so they have much less actual silver content. You need to be sure your pieces are definitely sterling, meaning they are marked with the word "Sterling" otherwise they are most likely silver plated, which is absolutely worthless. As far as selling, there is no better place I know of than the Silver and Gold Exchange at http://SilverAndGoldExchange.com I have dealt with them for years and they always pay well and fast. Craigslist is a bit dangerous and more of a hassle than it's worth. Forget Ebay too... the Ebay and Paypal fees will eat up the profits. Good Luck!

  31. QUESTION:
    How do I find serious buyers of old coins and currency?
    I have many old coins and some old silver certificates and old united states notes to sell. I might have the remaining coin for someone's collection if I knew what was in demand. I also have a signed original Norman Rockwell still in the original frame for sale. It is titled "The Famous Model 'T' was Boss of the Road".

    • ANSWER:
      There are several avenues open to you. First, I would go to Barnes & Noble or similar store and check the following book out: "The Official Guidebook to United States Coins" by R.S. Yeoman. It is commonly referred to as "The Red Book". Matching the pictures in the book to your coins will give you an idea of what you have. Next while you're there check the periodicals for coin magazines and papers. These will give you an idea of what your coins are being sold for based on the grade of the coin. You now know what you have and approximately what it is worth so you at least should not get to badly ripped off. If you choose to sell them on EBAY or Yahoo, these are prices you may be able to reach but DO NOT expect these prices from a dealer!! They buy at much much lower prices. Do not be alarmed at the difference between the two sources - it is normal. If you received the coins from family for free, what the dealer offers will be pure profit, albeit lower than what you MAY have been able to get but all profit none-the-less!! If you can find a copy of Coin World magazine, they have a classified type section in the back where companies buy coins that you ship to them. These prices are more typical of what a dealer would pay you for them. Call them - maybe they will send you a free issue in the hopes of you subscribing!! You could also go to the local coin shop but I would definitely go to multiple shops to get as much data as I could before deciding where to sell them. Judge the dealer as well - your gut instinct about the dealer may make you more money!! Some dealers are good and others unfortunately will rip you off. That is why you found out what you have and a "ballpark" figure of what it is worth!!! Unless you need the money quickly take your time to go to local coin shows and research the selling and buying prices of your specific coins. Do not jump at the first dealers offer unless you need to!!

    The metals market has silver at .90 an ounce. Is this what the buyer will pay if I have bullion such as ;?
    I have silver eagle dollars? How about other silver coins? Where is the best place to take these and cash them in? I live in southern Wisconsin and am wondering if it is normal business for a bank to buy these?

    • ANSWER:
      .90 is the spot price that silver is traded on the commodities market. The price offered by dealers could be 5%-80% below that price and could charge a premium of 5%-80% over that price when selling depending on what the market will bare.

      Banks won't buy them and you will need to find a dealer that will purchase them at a reasonable discount.

  38. QUESTION:
    can someone explain to me how to invest in silver?
    Someone told me if i were to buy silver bullion and wanted to sell it back i would have to mark up the price and the buyer would buy at a discount but i dont quite understand this. can someone explain it to me?
    im basically trying to find out how much money i would lose if i were selling silver back
    and would i also get taxed if i ever sold my silver for a profit?

    • ANSWER:
      It depends upon where and with who you buy and sell from. Standard precious metal dealers will typically charge a bit of a premium on their bullion (a price above market rate), plus shipping and handling fees. If there is a metals auction in your area, you can buy at auction, though sales tax could apply there. You can also buy and sell silver bullion on eBay - but you will need to watch your bids as they can easily get well above market price, and shipping charges may apply.

      If you sell your silver back to a dealer, they will want to buy it back from you at a discount to the market price - they are after all in the business to make money. You can attempt to sell it directly to investors at a local auction (though commission charges will apply) or through eBay (again, commission will apply). It really depends who you sell it to. Dealers and scrappers will want a discount from the spot rate, investors will pay closer to the actual spot rate.

      Profit or loss will depend upon the spot rate at the time of purchase and sell. If silver has gone up enough to more than cover the premium, initial sales tax paid, shipping costs, then you will make a profit. If the spot rate has declined or not increased enough to cover your other costs, then you will have a loss.

      Just like buying and selling any other product, you will have to pay taxes on your gains. Speak to your tax professional for the correct tax treatment of your gains from silver.

  47. QUESTION:
    Any stock suggestions for a novice buyer? I started with silver (SLV), and I deposit between - a week...?

    • ANSWER:
      Not gunna work. What you're doing is dollar cost averaging, which is good; in fact very effective when done sucessfully. However, depositing - a week is probably one of the worst applications of dca.

      1. The comissions will eat up 20% of your investment
      2. You will not be able to buy large lots of stocks For instance, let's say you deposit (after comissions) one week. If slv is at , then you buy 2 shares. If slv is at .01, then you only buy 1 share, not utilising your capital fully.

      These are only 2 of the major flaws.

      My suggesting is to space out your deposits to once every 2 or 4 months ish, so you end up depositing ~0 or ~0 every month. This way, you can reduce the amount that comissions eat into your investment, and you can buy round lots of shares. Once you can investment more money on a regular basis, you can then either continue to add on your contributions, or to shrink the spacing inbetween them. Only when you can deposit ~0 a transaction, will you be able to do it weekly.

  49. QUESTION:
    What is the relationship between Capitalism and Racism?
    Race and Racism Were Created by Capitalism
    When slavery developed in the "New World" in the sixteen and seventeen hundreds, it was a new type of slavery. It was slavery within the capitalist economy. But slave labor is not the usual form of labor under capitalism: wage labor is. So why did slavery develop in the Americas? And why is it that the slaves were Africans?

    When the British began to develop profitable plantations in their American colonies they faced a serious shortage of workers. They also faced the problem of labor discipline because it was easy for workers to leave the plantations or escape to the Indians.

    The British tried several ways of dealing with the labor shortage. The main one, at first, was indentured servitude . Under this system, unemployed people from England were convinced to come to America or were kidnapped. They were forced to work without wages to pay off their passage to America from England, usually for seven years. People were packed like sardines into the holds of ships for two to three months. Sometimes, fewer than half of them survived the trip. When people died, they were tossed overboard. Once they arrived in America, they were auctioned off to buyers. Husbands, wives and children were separated. These were white, English people: racism had nothing to do with it. It was just plain capitalist greed.

    Indentured servants were brutally exploited. The plantation owners and the colonial government violently disciplined these workers. Runaways were punished by hanging, burning, being staked in the sun or shot. It was also legal to increase their seven-year contract as punishment for various misdeeds. At this stage, most indentured servants did not even live until the end of their seven year contract.

    The shipmasters and merchants who brought white laborers to the colonies also went to Africa to get laborers. Slavery of the early, pre-capitalist type existed in west Africa at that time. When different groups went to war, people who were captured became slaves -- not for life, and not without rights, but still slaves. British and other European merchants offered money to purchase captured slaves, and they found the African slave owning rulers willing to sell.

    "Africans joined whites as indentured servants and went through the same hell..."

    For several decades, the Africans brought to North America joined whites as indentured servants. They went through the same hell, from the boat passage to the auction block to the beatings and harsh conditions. In the colonies, they worked and lived alongside the whites. There was no barrier between white and black servants: their common enemy created an intense solidarity, which overcame the superficial differences in language and cultural habits. They lived, worked, and married together. They often ran away together, and on several occasions they rebelled together.

    In the 1660s all this began to change -- drastically. England cut back on white emigration. The industrial revolution was beginning so more workers were needed in the factories at home. British capitalists also gave massive support to the African slave trade. They had made a decision to base the American economic system on human slavery, and the supply of labor from Africa was cheap and plentiful.

    "British capitalists made a conscious decision to base the American economic system on human slavery."

    The slave trade was immensely profitable. The profits from buying and selling African workers, combined with the rape of gold and silver from South and Central America, provided the capital to drive the engine of the industrial revolution. Europe became the top dog in the world based on the enslavement of American Indians and Africans.

    At this time, the colonial ruling class (plantation owning families like the Washingtons, Jeffersons, Mathers and Byrds: the "fathers of our country") began to legalize slavery. At first, some plantation owners began to hold certain Africans for life, rather than for seven years. Then lifetime servitude for black servants became law. In 1662 came the "principal of heredity," which declared that, legally, if the mother was a black slave, the child would also be a slave from birth.

    But in a society which until then had paid almost no attention to skin color, a number of questions had to be answered: what was a black person? What was a white person? What was a child whose parents were different colors? At this stage, the concept of race needed to be made up. To do this, more laws were passed. The Virginia legislature, in 1672, defined a black person: anyone with one black grandparent. (Hitler used a parallel law to define a "Jew".) This was very significant: if it was necessary to pass a law to define a "race," it is obvious that at that time, people did not think of each other as belonging to separate "races."

    These laws represent the beginning of the idea of racism. The idea was that whites were superior to blacks. This

  50. QUESTION:
    Which nintendo ds lite should i buy from amazon (silver) from?
    i wanna buy a silver ds lite.

    one buyer is offering the ds lite (like new) with a gamestop carrying case with stylus and charger

    another buyer is offering ds lite (like new) with guitar hero with stylus and charger

    they are both .00. i want a case for me ds lite cause my last ds lite got a cracked hinge

    i hate guitar hero for ds but i could probably make a trade or sell it for .00.

    what should i buy. the first or second?

    • ANSWER:
      First of all, check to make sure that is a reliable seller, because Target is selling DS lites for 6 for the starter bundle. I have a DS lite, and mine has also been cracked. I would go with the first option, because it will protect the DS while carrying it. If you don't like guitar hero, there is really no point in buying it, other than trading or selling it. Hope this helps!
