Yes, I agree the Fisch detectors are a great resource.

I'll be honest, I knew I was buying tungsten filled coins - I had less than honorable intentions at the time. Fortunately, my now wife instilled some morals in me, lol.

I appreciate you not taking offense about my suggestions though; it certainly makes me feel better about possible future purchases.

Lol ,good to hear youve found some morals . Takes guts & honesty to admit your misdeeds !! Smiley

I'm not posting this to cast doubt on the OP, but just a general warning for anyone buying bullion online.

Here are a few tips to make sure you're not getting scammed:

It's extremely easy to buy tungsten filled gold coins off of Ali Baba (I've done it myself).

They don't pass the 'ping' test, though (see above link).



Fisch detectors are very good, if you use both the size/weight check Fisch and the ping/ ring test Fisch.

I would never ever ever buy gold off Ali Baba.

Ok, great question. Welcome to Bitcoin and I think you're going about acquiring some in a productive way.

The one challenge with selling gold for BTC that no one has mentioned yet is that there's a lot of hype among the community about how bitcoin has grow to be a better investment than gold. Now for someone like you and others who are very familiar with commodity investing your thoughts on a hedge are spot on, but others don't think that way...they just want to get in on the next hot move. And when we have threads about "the flippening" and Bitcoin's market cap exceeding that of Gold it puts Gold in a negative light.

As for escrow...definitely use it and there are several reputable options available with long track records and relatively low fees. I believe Lauda's team charges 1%, you can probably find an equally good option with lower fees (OG Nasty and minerjones come to mind but there are others). When you select escrow read the trust ratings these people have. You don't want to get stuck with someone who is going to end a transaction or misinterpret the reality of events. Some people are a bit trigger happy when giving out negative trust.

I think for now is a good time to buy bitcoin because currently the bitcoin price is down, but investing here is a big risk but it also promises great results too, but the gold investment risk is smaller than bitcoin

I'm European and gold prices are quoted in USD, oil too, that's how it is.

I find the idea of shipping gold a bit risky, personally.

The shipping will only be tracked, signed for insured shipping. I have bought a lot of gold this way and not had an issue. Companies like bullionbypost operate like this.
In my country, without any service that works this way, I can not trust it, this is a very dangerous activity, I think I will never use it.

I will only ship to countries where tracked, signed for insured delivery is supported. You are right for countries where it is not, buying gold this way is a non-starter .

- The prices are on my website bitcoinbypost.co.uk   The prices change constantly, hence I'm directing you here.
It doesn't really inspire confidence if you mistype your own website...

How does customs work on shipping gold? Will there be charges or questions?

Sorry about that misquote. My mistake. The URL is of course    http://bitgoldbypost.co.uk

I don't take any responsibility for customs charges, and the packages will be marked with the true contents as this is an above board registered business.

In the UK where I live, there is no VAT on gold, but there is on silver so silver would attract import duties. 

Every country has different rules, and it is for the buyer to check this, and file any paper work as per local rules, and pay any import taxes which may be applicable.

Maybe you can post some pictures of the gold you are holding, together with a timestamped note to prove ownership.

I am going to get some pictures of my gold this weekend, along with a sign with my username. I have to plan access to this gold as its in a safe box in a third party vault.
