We pay: what we pay for one item at the spot bid shown, in person or by mail (an estimate: a sale is priced from spot when you sell, and the minimum sale is $1,000). % of spot bid: our buy price per ounce of metal divided by the spot bid, the market price we pay from. Our price: our check/wire price for one, as on the product page (card and PayPal prices are 5% higher). Spread: the gap between the two, as a share of our price. Break-even: how far spot would have to rise from today before our buy price for the item reaches today’s price.
How we price gold
Our gold buy prices are the gold in the item times a share of the spot bid: 97% of spot for popular items and items we sell, 95% for other items. On this list today that is 97.0% of spot bid for 186 items; 95.0% of spot bid for 11 items; 96.0% of spot bid for 1 items. Weight sets the total, not the rate: a 10 oz bar is worth ten times the per-ounce price.
A 1 oz Gold Eagle costs $4,164.62 from us today and we pay $3,812.10 for one, a spread of 8.5%: Gold 9.2% would have to rise about that much before one bought today could be sold back at no loss. Larger bars and coins usually have smaller spreads than fractional and specialty pieces.
