I was looking at JM Bullion's site and they want a 30+% mark up over spot silver price for bullion coins. In your experience, is it likely that mark up is going to be higher or lower at reputable local dealers compared to reputable online dealers?Online can be problematic unless you deal with one of the biggest firms. Like Ampex, JM Bullion, or similar. Completely and utterly no way would I buy on ebay unless it was a larger firm with six digits of feedback. Lots of fake coins in circulation. Many made in, you guessed it, China.
Buying online always involves a waiting period. Two weeks is common. Sometimes, you are buying a "type" not a particular coin so you can't see what you're getting. Not that it's all that important when buying bullion coins. But as a general principle, I like to see what I'm getting.
There is a reputable dealer in Corvallis, MJPM. I use his prices for reference sometimes.
