Bullion Standard out of all the companies I researched offer the best spots and prices. My only complaint is I wish I had found this company a long time ago as it would have saved me a lot of money. They offer a wide selection for all your bullion needs. Items are packed with great care and shipping is fast. I highly recommend Bullion Standard for all your bullion needs and quit getting ripped offer by the " big guys" . I also recommend enrollment in Pro for the awesome extra savings on your purchases.

I am a great fan of Bullion Standard and have highly recommend this company for the spots and prices of all items. All items were well packed and shipping was quick. I had one issue with processing a purchase online and have been helped by customer service. Another time I paid the higher price since purchase was after hours...my lack of patience sometimes. All items I have purchased had the best prices out of dozens of companies I researched. I could not be more pleased even with a couple of bumps along the road. The quality, quantity and selection is great though if I had one request is that you offered 5 oz silver bars!!
