Flash sale at First Majestic. Ends Sep 22 23:59 pst. $0.50/oz usd off on 5 oz, 1 oz and 30 oz (grains). Current list price is $27. Spot is $23.20 usd... Neutral Face It's still the best deal around, I guess, even before the shareholder discount.

Edit: List price down to $26.50 usd/oz.

Im looking to sell 12 1 ounce gold maple leafs in Calgary. Any recommendations on how to get best value? At least say middle ground between dealers buy/sell prices?

They're in Calgary and seem to guarantee the best price.

Are the premiums for 1oz GMLs back to pre-covid levels now or are they still higher?

I’ve noticed more private sellers unloading locally since the price drops of silver and gold in the past month. Or at least paring their stacks to rebalance their portfolio.

In any case, there seems to be deals to be had privately as long as you can verify properly. Bought myself a tube of maple leafs and a couple of Montreal 1976 Olympic $10 coins for spot.

What are the best places to buy/sell gold bars rate wise? Is there a central link where the rates offered by the various gold dealers in Canada are posted or pretty much have to call each one individually?

there is spot then the spread between buy & sell.

from dealer to dealer it will be a few pennies or dollars either side, most go with that..

for quick reference start here, make sure you select CDN/USD for pricing, look at the *product* drop down tab or side panel to select type such as bullion or coins

Hi all,
I am new to this hobby of collecting coins. A friend of mine mentioned that Costco sells these coins in Calgary. Is it a good place to purchase gold/silver coins/bars? Or I should look for bullion dealers? Thanks

Costco is the cheapest option IF you have the Premium membership which gives you 2% back. I have heard they are out of stock all the time.

Costco now sells silver.
25x1oz maples = $37.60/oz
https://www.costco.ca/25-x-1-oz-2023-ca ... 36461.html

10oz RCM bar = $38.0/oz
https://www.costco.ca/10-oz-royal-canad ... 36373.html

10oz coin = $38.0/oz
https://www.costco.ca/10-oz-2021-magnif ... 36426.html

Meanwhile, First Majestic is charging $26.50 usd = $35.79. Factoring in credit card rebate and executive rebate, Costco seems like a good deal.
