The Hidden Cost of Buying Bullion Online

The big online bullion retailers, Money Metals, SD Bullion, JM Bullion, Hero Bullion, Pinehurst Coins, APMEX, Modern Coin Mart, Provident Metals, GovMint, Monex, US Money Reserve, and the rest, all advertise prices that look competitive at first glance. But before you finalize that order, add up what you are actually paying:

  • Shipping: typically $8–$30 depending on order size
  • Insurance: required on most orders; adds to the cost
  • Credit card surcharges: most online dealers charge 3–4% extra if you pay by card
  • Waiting: 3–10 business days for delivery after payment clears
  • Risk: packages get lost, delayed, or damaged; disputes take time to resolve

By the time you add all of that up, the "low price" you saw online is often way higher than what we charge, and you still have to wait a week or more to hold your coins. Clemson Coins, Currency and Bullion is the smarter choice.
