Quote from 377OHMS:
re Tulving, I have never encountered any issues on the retail sales side of the house and they have a great local reputation for one thing, getting your silver shipment to you rapidly and reliably and their premium has always been competitive. They seem to receive wire transfers very quickly. I once had a case of silver maples damaged on one corner, it looked like the shipper tried to open it but couldn't. The contents were fine but I did let Tulving know about it. They covered shipping to get me another case just so I would have a perfect plastic container.
I have never sold to them so I don't know what issues exist on that side of the business. I mean, who sells their physical? Its only a very small percentage of net worth and is intended to be held/accumulated so far as I am concerned.
There was some silly language on their site about buying back your purchase blah blah. I guess they ran into some trouble over it. The family is in business there as always. I didn't realize the old boy had trouble back then. I'll keep buying from his sons I suppose, as long as they have a fair premium over spot. (shrug)
you cannot eat your silver in a crisis
" blah blah" is a sophisticated approach to investing.
