- Why invest in small Gold Bars?
Buying small Gold bars like the 1 gram, 2.5 gram Pamp etc the you need to be aware of a few things like potential fakes on eBay and such like.
The reason is simple - in relative terms to buy 1 gram of Gold in 10 years will require more than it does now - much more than 5 grams will be a real barrier to entry into the Gold bullion market for many people.

Remember folks gold and silver is real currency not built on faith “ I’m just saying “
I like metals but it’s actually the same, also built on faith. The metal itself is quite useless. You can’t use it to start fire, you can’t consume it, you can’t build a house with it.
@@robertb6926 whatever you watched this video on wouldnt work if you removed the gold from inside of it.....
@@joefromnorwich That is not what gives gold it’s value at all. Gold has been valued for thousands of years, but is only being used in computers and phones the last 50 or so years.
@@robertb6926 you said "the metal itself is quite useless"...
Golds use has expanded from its age old use as an ornamental material to its additional use in electronics.... which is exponentially increasing in demand year on year.
Faith? The Bible says this life is temporary & that one day people will throw their gold & silver in the street, bc it was worthless. Money in any form is a tool, so put many tools in your box😁

Nah. I brought the 1g bar
Just got 4 one oz. gold coins... wouldn’t mind getting some bars as well though...
Where do you guys buy them
@@techtime999-9 sdbullion.com for me...
Purchased a 2.5..weeeee we weeeeeeee wee
I really like your videos. I also like buying the small 1g to 5g gold bars. When people say it isn't worth it due to higher premiums, they don't realize that you DO get those premiums back when you sell! (Like you mentioned). For those of us who are not wealthy and appreciate real money, this is the way to go. And yes, I think PAMP is best, followed by Valcambi. Thanks for your videos! ;-)
Thank you, much appreciated.
And metalor
What a wonderful observation which helps me to feel better about buying the fractional gold. I never thought about about how much easier it will be to liquidate those vs full oz and bigger as well as the market demanding a high premium once the spot price reaches future highs. It's really not a bad choice although so many stacker channels always say the smartest is to go larger for lower premium which is true but for the purpose of high prices,the fractional will be more than easy to convert. Thanks for sharing your insight
Thank you. I think personally 1/10 and 1/4 ounce is probably optimum.. their enough but not to much
@@TangibleLife and I see the 1/10 are actually a favorite size of stackers somewhere I read; the number 2 choice of consumers. So that alone makes them optimal! Ppl should harp on these points more because it's just not discussed often like this.
Simply, just purchase whatever size you can afford at that period of time. More importantly buy whatever brand / country coins you like, high chances the coins / bar you like most will kept with you for long of period of time.
I’ve got 40x 1g gold bars, bought for £33.50 each a few years ago. Bargain! Really good for when we go to a digital currency and we want to buy/sell outside of the matrix.
Wow what a great great price! Its funny, we just need a temporary "mini crash" so we can get in again before $2000+ is the new norm.
THIS!
That's a great price, everywhere i look now 1g bars are €75 minimum
@@stanpines9011nuggets and grains are much lower so you can buy that and stack
Exactly. Certified. Small. In time of swift action. Nobody will change a kilo bar or phantasy coins. Just 2.5 or 5 grams certified are like an internal preloaded debit card of universal liquidity. Smart.
Yes I think it could work like that in the future for 1g, 2.5, 5g bars definitely.
Another very viable reason to hold small bars instead of big ones, and I'm saying this very seriously, in case of some emergency scenario where you need to buy food/pay for transport/whatever and economy is in tatters, it's much easier to have lets say 10 bars of 1 gram than one 10 gram bar. Not to say you shouldn't get any of the bigger ones, but you should have a fair portion of small ones as well.
Yes very good point. 1g bar will be easier to pay for smaller items like food or fuel.
@@TangibleLife Yep
I agree with this. Also like to add that silver would be a good option to barter with as well
I appreciate this outlook.
Nice collection of fractional gold bars, thanks for sharing :) the PAMP Lady Fortuna bars are really beautiful
Thanks for sharing a video showing the different sizes!
You are so welcome!
Where do you suggest we should purchase it?
Liked and subscribed! Thanks for the video
Great video! I’m in total agreement. If I had a large sum of money I wouldn’t bother with sovereigns at all. I’d just buy as many 1gm gold bars as I could afford. Plus the more you buy in bulk the premium goes down. But you can also still sell them ‘with’ the premium you didn’t have to stump up for. The great thing about these 1 gram gold bars is that they are closer to real money. They are not too dissimilar from a £50 note in value. It’s cash/currency but it’s also investment/bullion. It’s also a unit that is used throughout the world. Imagine being up shit creek in the middle of nowhere but you remembered to bring your 1 gram gold bar with you. That £50 - £100’s worth will get you out of the shit. Try selling a gold sovereign to a random when you’re desperate. In a poorer country it’d be even worse. 1 grams bars all the way!
I make nice mens leather belts with a couple of inside pocket slips to carry several thousand dollars of gold at any time or anywhere you go, nobody can tell you have them, the coin slips inside a tight slip and won't slide out even if you pull your belt off your jeans, one man wanted me to make his capable of carrying 1-1toz gold plus 1-1oz platinum and 1-1toz silver coin at all times
How can I purchase one of those belts I will pay you with a money order
Yea I agree somewhat but then again so many ppl are skeptical these days and you'd have to go get it checked or they'd want a deal because they will say they are taking a risk. I have some myself but hope not to get into a situation like that anytime soon lol
you do realise sovs are £1 coins, fiat didn't keep up, that's all, feel a sov and you instinctively can tell it's real money.
Are the Pamp bars usually smaller in size versus the RCM bars? I got two oz of each and was shocked when comparing the size of both 1 oz bars that appear to be the same thickness, why is the Pamp 1 oz looking half the size of the RCM 1 oz bar? Ordered them all from Costco , could Costco sell fakes in this case or it it normal for them to look much smaller then other 1 oz bar brands?
On jm bullion. Im seeing the same weight pamps. Diff names. Diff prices. Dose it matter? Or is the weight worth the wait. Forget about the name?
hi what app are you using to check the gold mate ?
One thing to note, 10 gram gold bars and up, you really save a ton on Premium. So if you can, try to save up till you can buy a 10 g bar or larger.
Why are they better then buying 1g!
@@AB-eg3nq because there is more labor connected to the smaller "bars", so you get charged more per gram, for example it would cost 20% more to buy 100x 1g ingot vs 1x 100g ingot. The 100g ingot is however much less liquid meaning it would be easier to find 100 people with each of them buying 1g vs finding 1 person that would buy the whole 100g ingot.
@@marcelkubicek8829 It also depends on to who you want to sell it. If you're selling it do dealers, yeah you will get the spot price or less. But if you sell it to someone else, there are plenty of people who want to buy a 1 gram bar with premium.
@@AB-eg3nq cheaper premium but liquidity is harder

Good luck with your channel and stacking
My 1 grams are worth more now then when I bought them in November.
Good to hear!
Would reselling it in the future be hard if you removed it from the packaging?
I think it would be s bad idea.. your average person will be suspicious, dealers won't care so much.
I’m torn between buying 5g or 1g. The 5g is currently at USD356 from where I’m buying it from. Should I consider getting that instead?
Doesn't the premium kind of not matter since you can sell it with the premium included? ie. Let's say you bought a fractional with 5% premium, can't I sell it with market price at 5%? I am new which is why I am curious
Excellent video and even more relevant now. New sub.
Awesome, thank you!
Great video with very good points. I just bought 25 of the 1 gram pamp bars.
awesome! great explanation, thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Do you recommend money metal I just bought my first 1/2 gram an will continue to purchase n the near future what’s your though on that company?
Ratings to you for the 1g's. I have a few myself. Another great video.
Cool, thanks
Got three grams of Suisse Pamp. I know the premium is high. But I am in over the long, and my goal is to buy 10 grams, then a gram and a half. My ultimate goal is to get to 2,000 dollars, then invest a portion into a Gold I.R.A. This is fun and fascinating to me.
Nice idea. Good luck, I'm sure you will do it.
Is there a point to keeping in the packaging? I personally would want to remove… just curious
You could open one one time to get it out your system but I would strongly advise not to remove or tamper with the packaging due to future resale issues.
What are your thoughts on Heraeus, Umicore and Metalor gold bars? I like Pamp too but my bullion dealer has never sent me a Pamp bar. Like you I buy the small units as well, it's all I can afford and indeed easy to liquidate in an emergency.
All the Heraeus and Umicore bars I have are great, have had no issues when selling on they are as far as I know very reputable. As I'm from the UK my personal favorite Gold (or Silver) bars are Royal Mint but I do mainly buy Pamp. At the end of the day if its 999.9 pure I'm happy with it, I'm not going to turn down a good deal on Gold bar just because I don't like the mint.
Hell yeah, looks awesome 👌
just bought my first 3 bars, hoping to keep doing this, but I advice only to do this if you can actually spare the money. Gold is not that easy to liquidate, so keep a max of 20-25% of your savings in gold
Good advice
Gold is probably due another sharp retraction in the coming weeks (like the drop of 7% this week) after that I think that the $1800/$1900's range will be the norm... no more Gold at $1200. Some analysts are even saying $15,000 Gold by 2025 but there will of course be sharp retrations along the way - stay frosty!
Yep I am actually waiting for a drop to buy.. I am gettibg silver too..

I’m thinking of investing with the royal mint. Would you recommend them?
I ordered 10 1g gold bars
@@skrtlxrd1283 Absolutely. There is a slightly higher premium but you get the best quality. And many years down the line you will have more more ease selling a Royal Mint bar then say a privately forged one. I recommend.

I have just started this myself I have started small. A gram of gold is cheaper than a gram of coke easy deal in my eyes.
Hi, HELP! Is there a PAMP Lady fortuna 1oz. In an eliptic shape?
Only ones I've ever seen come in 1g 5g and 10g. I Might be wrong though
There is a2.5 also in smalls
Where would you sell these if you wanted to sell them in uk? What shop would buy them from you or would you sell them online? Ty
eBay, online, bullion/coin shops
HI! I need advice, what's the best amount of gold to keep for starters?
Tough call, depends on your personal finances. 1/10 ounce is one of my favourite. A decent amount of gold but affordable
Are they assays same size ?
With the ongoing war, gold has risen drastically. Just purchased a couple bullions recently and was glad I did before the price of gold skyrocketed
@Werner von frankfurt hey how much do you think i should get for my first purchase gold bar ? ranging from .5g to 5g and possibly 10g
Bot
The mark up when you buy 1g comes to around 68 pounds when the actual price of a gram is around 43 pounds is this not a problem when it comes to re selling as you could only sell 1g for the market price..
When to buy it online you have paid the mark up? I do not really get it. Any one can help me to understand? Thanks
A 2.5 gram bar is around 137 pounds at the moment so slightly better I guess but I do not understand how paying such a mark up on 1 grams is a good idea.
Hi Boku.. because someone else will be picking up that premium when you sell it on in 5 to 10 years time. Show me 1 gram of Gold for sale anywhere on the Internet at spot price? IF you have to fire-sale your 1g to a coin dealer a week after purchasing it then sure you will get burned.
Exactly that’s why you hold it for years to come when spot price for a gram is way above 68, I bought a gram for 62 the other week I will not sell that bar till spot is 62 or more or someone willing to pay me a mad offer
Long story short, if you got big stack of cash in your hands then you go for it and get the largest gold bar as possible to save some premium, but if you are saving regulary like 200-500 dollars a month then you go for the fractional bars and coins. But important to remember, you never ever go for fractional if you got a huge cash at one moment, cuz i know many people who love to spend their 10K with many fractional bars rather than getting one bar for the same amount. They always ended up paying 20g worth of premium for their behaviors!
Its easier to sell smaller amounts for smaller purchases in a financial apocalypse is my thought
Also thats why im buying silver as well
Oh yeah paying the premium for this tradable stuff is worth it! And soon it'll be worth way more than what you payed for that premium
Yes good point. People forget that 1g, 2.5g, 5g bars are a lot of money for many people and they will pay a premium but will nearly always get that premium back when selling on (premium in, premium out). The proof is on eBay at any point you can see small bars will go for 25% + over spot all day long.
That’s why I just got into buying some silver I also bought an ounce of gold
What do you think of 1/2 gram bars
I just started collecting I’m from Canada, prices are through the roof. I just watched a Jacoje video where he got a 10g fortuna for 430 USD and that was 4 years ago. I basically pay the same for 6g
Hi Brian, Yes I know it can be a bit crushing but it will be the same for people starting in 10 years from now. Look at it like this: you could be paying August 2020 $2100 oz prices (I think $1900 will be the new base soon), so what your buying now is not that bad in the grand scheme!
@@TangibleLife just wanted to point out that 1 year later you were spot on about the base price.
Nice, I'm not the only one who is willing to buy small weights of gold bars.
Small bars are liquid and affordable.

Hey please could I ask for your opinion? Would you buy 1g gold now or save up for a 2.5g but by that time, the price may have gone up? Or would you buy silver instead right now? Thanks in advance ☺️
Hi Amy, Good question. Firstly I would make sure that whatever you buy now you can afford to keep for at least 1-3 years. If it was me there is a dip in Gold price at the moment, so if you can get a 2.5g quite soon I would say it would be a little better. But 1g Gold bar is also just fine. Silver is good, so you could get a 1g Gold and a couple ounces of Silver for around the same price as a 2.5g Gold bar.
@@TangibleLife is there a dip as of now? Is it a good time to purchase 10g of gold my friend?
@@KakashiH318 If it was me I would jump in now. At the time of writing 10g Gold is about $600 USD so even if the market had a sudden pull back of 15% (which would be highly unlikely) you would only be saving $90, but the way things are heading (dollar weak at moment (91.2) I would say one has more chance of begin more gutted that it moves up 25% in the next few weeks and your looking at $750+ for the same bar.
Make sure you can afford to hold this investment for at least 6-12 months. I think sub $1800 is a good buy - I'm buying!
For starting in gold I'd do fractional gold coins, 1/4 oz preferred but you can also do 1/10 oz. They'll retain their premiums and can resell them to trade up to 1/2 oz or 1 oz coins.
@@shabushabu1453 Hi, yes 1/4 and 1/10 are great sizes, liquid, compact, high demand, affordable

My one oz Pamp ounce came from Apmex and they have a very good reputation. That might be one of the most important factors as Apmex cannot afford to damage their reputation with fake bars or coins.

I'm 29 almost 30, been thinking if I should start a private pension scheme or spend that same amount of money each month on gold bar's? Thinking £60-120 a month on bars. Think this is a good idea? Also which websites do you recommend? Also is silver bars also good investment?
Hi, I would try and do both. I think given current climate I would like to have at least 10% of my wealth in physical Gold. If you can afford around £150 pm on Metals then that would be a great start. I think 10% of your allocation could go on Silver. For example one might buy a single 2.5g Gold bar (or 2 x 1g bars) and a 1oz 999 Silver coin for around that price. I think if you go much less it's going to take a long time to accumulate anything worth having in the timeframe you have. You must make sure you can afford to keep your investments for the long term and not overextend and have to sell the what you've built up a few years later to pay a bill or something, that would be gutting.

@@TangibleLife May I ask, do these numbers come from Pamp Suisse or are they your own measurements? Thanks.
The problem with small bars like these is the premiums are really high as a percentage of the total cost to purchase. A one ounce bar or coin would have a smaller premium. I believe I read that in the UK silver is assessed sales tax on purchases but gold is not. Are British issued silver coins tax exempt? If so, I would recommend buying one ounce silver coins if you have limited funds instead of these high premium gold bars. Oh, and don't buy any bars off of Ebay. You're just asking to be scammed. Stick with known coin dealers.
I think the premium is only an issue if you are trying to flip Gold in the short term based on performance. If you are holding for 5 years its not an issue. I try to have a split of Gold in my portfolio that is for quick gains when prices rise to liquidate quickly with profit, and the other buys are long term investments.
i did not know how to spot a fake gold before i do now thank you.🤔🤗
New sub. I absolutely agree with fractionals and bars at that. Its what i can afford. It will increase in value and my stacking is for my sons. Premium and cost will not matter to them, since they will have no cost involved! Thanks for the great information.

Ive bought 200 gs of silver and have about 25.5g of gold. Still wanting 8oz of gold by winter of 2024. Industry needs gold now more than ever
Hi there! I just wanna ask if the 2.5 gram and 5 gram are the same size?
Hi, The 5g bar is bigger and thicker than 2.5g.
...thats not....how physics works
1oz of platinum and one oz of gold.... which is larger. Gold, because it weighs less than platinum. Which weighs more...... they are both 1oz. 5 grams is going to be larger than 2.5. You’re comparing gold with gold of the same weight. Just like a 1 carat Ruby is smaller than a 1 carat diamond because the ruby is heavier . Hope I helped with your question.❤️
By weigh I mean the same carat 24 and 24kt
Is it possible to open the package and throw it in the garbage or should I save it when I sell it?
You could, but why would you want to do that? The package is validation of your purchase is what it is.
you collect up to 28(?)g of gold then it'll equal 1oz, that's the first goal which is to get that 1oz.
1 ounce in the international market is 31.125g troy ounce.

Hi there - dam right I'm gonna throw them on eBay, as eBay is probably the largest coin market place on the web. I'm selling 1g gold bars that I paid £45 for 3 months ago for £70/£80 today on eBay when spot is only £47. People could actually but from a bullion dealer for less than eBay, and that is because demand is so high at the moment - and dealers have supply issues. In 10 years the same £45 should be at least £65 if not doubled judging by the way things are going with Covid, endless money printing, Gold backed cryptos, Mining supply issues and on eBay than means near £100.. better return than sticking it in the bank and hoping for 15% interest rates which will never happen in our lifetime... although the downside is that there is always risk attached to buying Gold...

@@VisualizerTopic There you go good for him!
I know this video is last year, but i cannot get my head round the fact that if you buy the physical gold from these bullion companies in the small quantities mentioned, you are paying a premium on the actual price of the gold of about 20-25%, if you need to liquidate them they will only buy it back at roughly the spot price. Tell me if i am wrong but unless you are thinking of a very very long investment game or buying 1KG bars, you are just lining these bullion co's coffers
Buying small Gold Bars is a long game. 1g Gold Bars allows low barrier to entry. If you can go 1 ounce and afford to hold it do so.
Also god forbid something happens and money is worthless you could always use these 1 gram gold bars to trade for food or whatever.
this makes sense
Just received my first 1g Fortuna. Nice small piece. PAMP is hard to buy now. IMHO 10g is good size/price ratio, why not 10g?
10g is good, just many cannot afford it.

It’s like buying a black leather bag from Chanel or a random store Same product, but each product has built trust around its name that guarantees authenticity. Same with gold. Hope it makes sense
Thank you, so just say in 5,10,20 years time I want to sell will it still be the same value as other brands etc. Does Brands affect sale price or is 999.9 gold just the same as other brands and will be the same price at selling point?
Casey Mashiter the price of the gold will always have its value and sale price. It depends who you are selling to that you may get a little extra for the premium/branding especially if it is a rare bar that had limited supply, if the gold is still in mint condition eg still in packaging, you may get a little extra. Essentially, depends who you sell to, if it’s a big company, they probably will pay more for branding,
should i buy coins or bar and which are the best ??
Depends on your budget and time scale to hold.
Most people can’t afford to purchase more than 1g or 2.5g of gold at one time. Plus it’s a lot easier to use them or if you need to sell a few in emergencies. You won’t be forced to sell a larger bar. The value will go up over time, but the inflation of Fiat currencies around the world are destroying your savings everyday. These are a solid insurance for hard times. Brass and copper jacketed lead are quickly becoming rare and precise metals in 🇺🇸.
Hi Don, Thanks for that, good points, interesting - I heard there was some kind of AMMO shortage crisis in US.
A serial number is a nice identification feature in the event of theft.
1/10 coins are another good bet. Nice low premiums. For me fractional is king
Yes 1/10 coins are very good, probably my fav size Gold coin, plenty of variety in designs too.
Buying small isn't a waste of time.
You will pay more in the long haul though. 5g is the smallest I buy unless I want to make a pendant.
Like the Argor Haraeus Linear. It comes in 1 and 2 gram sizes. Its beautiful. Beauty only makes it harder to part with. I may start buying Valcambi only in the future
Hi, I really wanted to buy 10g pamp suisse gold bar buy my husband said it will not earn much. I live in Malaysia so I only know that I can sell them back to the gold shop here. Is this really good investment? Is it worth it?
You have to wait for prices and demand to rise then you sell them so you can get the most out of it.then you can see if it is a good investment comparing how much you brought it for and how much you sold it
You could buy a little less to start?
im starting out and wanna start a channel like yours!
How can you know that they are real
I look at it like this if a nations currency tanks at least you know gold retains its value, prime example of this is Venezuela, their money is worthless but those that may have gold have something to barter with.
Just stay long term.
I'll still get some cause I love the feel of gold. But I'll probably get it once my crypto gold goes higher
Good idea - covert some crypto profits into physical Gold - they you are protected on both sides.
Got me some gold and decent amount of silver - the silver im willing to sell easier than the gold
Ancient time people believed the more gold you had the more wealth you attracted in your life
Gold would have to be at 3-4,000 a oz for me to sell mind or unless got in tough times
I think there's probably something in that as generally success begets success
Hi,
Yup I am Gold stacker 24k bars only. I buy fractional Gold bars 11 month then 12 month I buy 2 big bars. According to my budget. Planning to stack fractional Gold bars atleast 50 grams to 100 grams. And big bars 10 TOLAS bars
Hi, yes I am tending towards 24k for larger bars and coins now. a 10 tolas bar is a awesome weight.
@@TangibleLife
Yes sir. Very expensive but worthy 😌
Why gold when you hawe so much potential with other metals like silver, palladium or platinum
They are good investments but Gold is the most well known to the retail sector and practical to stack and sell on in the future - have you ever tried selling Platinum on the secondhand retail market about 5% of the market size compared to Gold and Silver.
@@TangibleLife true.. and no i have not.I did start stacking silver with the current price drop from the 2 year old sideways range. I plan to increase my stacking as/if tha price drops below $16/oz.
I simply can't afford to buy an ounce of gold every month so that's why I buy fractionals gold every month. Btw my first ever gold purchase was 5 gram Kinebar from UBS I don't think they make them anymore? But yeah I paid 300€ for it and it was breaking well beyond my budget but I was willing to do so because it was my birthday at the time. Now on I only get 1 gram bars 😃
Listen not many people in the world can afford an ounce of Gold every month, your doing well!
@@TangibleLife What would be best buy a 5 gram bars every 3 month's or a 10 gram bar every 5,6 month, (with a fixed budget for saving every month.)
So........... why ?
Is it good to open the PAMP or keep it sealed?
I think it is better not to open it. It will be very tempting to open it but you need to resist!
Open your money when u sell in a danger situation which is why we buy gold that is what the buyer would do open it feel your money in your hands not the plastic cases
@@shadowr1552 yes it's nice to feel the GOLD! But if you are planning a resale it may prove to be a bit trickier as the buyer may need you to verify it's worth. I always open one to play, then I'm over it!
I bought 3 1 ounce metalor 1 ounce bars, and couldn't resist opening 1 of them. They're so nice and satisfying to hold.

But yet easy to lose 😂🤦♂️
what about royal mint bars mate?
Nothing wrong with Royal Mint bars, - I do find they are quite hard to find though on the secondary market.
@@TangibleLife
Does that make them easier or harder to sell? Also where would I sell to once I was ready? eBay? Back to the royal mint?
Pamp looks good too. Was thinking about buying a few 1g a month and selling after 10years
@@Immortal__ that sounds like a reasonable plan, maybe push to 2.5g bar or 1/10 coin every other month if you can't do every. Only buy what you can afford to keep if you are in it for the long term you don't want to have to fire sale a year later to pay the bills. You can sell your Gold back to bullion dealers, on eBay, gumtree, precious metals forums, jewellery shops, Facebook groups, you won't be short of buyers in 10 year's time.
I just started buying gold. I get anything under 5g that's only because of the premiums.
Can I purchase PAMP on eBay the seller has 50k good reviews?
Hi, if the research shows like you say they look reputable and they've been trading for years I can't see a problem. Perhaps order small amount first and see if that arrives ok.
Stick with bullion dealers. One bad deal on eBay will erase any savings you thought you were getting. Jm bullion is my favorite but I also use apmex
Only thing bad about 1 gram -5 gram bars are the spot price and some are ridiculous ! Any gold is better than no gold at all.
Yes, I agree it does hurt sometimes especially the 1g
1g of gold cost twice more than an ounce of silver.
I believe 1g of gold is equal to about $57.
1kilo is $57k... in 2 to 3 years if the gold price doubles then your gold is worth $100k+.
Start investing now.
why does every stacker keep that awful plastic film on the package?? I take mine off.. am I still going to be able to sell it without it??
Hi Richard. I prefer to leave the protective film (and all original packaging) in tact as it adds another level of confidence to buyers that the item is not counterfeit and (the Gold) has not been tampered with in any way. It's not the end of the world if you have removed the film but I would leave it - I appreciate it looks a bit naff, but you have to think of the endgame and buyer confidence in your item.
@@TangibleLife True.. I'll have to keep my plastic on from now on I think.. thanks.
@@sydcorp_innovation_asf9338 For just one bar (I think it was only a 1g Pamp) I opened the Packaging and had a good old fondle. Once I had done this I was over it and never felt the need to open any again. I also have a Gold and Silver coin to fondle this gets me over touching coin purchases too!
I bought 10 1gram bars and I’ve kept the film on 9 of them. I just HAD to take the film of one. Too tempting. As the man says if we want to resell them the buyer wants them to be as a good as new.
