APMEX

Great, nothing bad to say about apmex, have placed dozens of orders and never had a issue

A very good experience with my first order from APMEX. First off, it came very quickly. It was sent out faster then any other company I have purchased silver or gold from. The order was for 4 silver coins and one silver bar. The packaged it very well. I am used to USPS destroying things that are sent to me, so this was nice to see it so well packaged. the silver was first wrapped in a little bubble envelope, then taped to the inside of a small but thick cardboard sleeve box. this double packaging method ensures that the silver doesn't slide around even if it takes a hit, and its away from the corners where hits most often can damage them. 2 of the coins came just in little plastic bags instead of flip. I didn't like that, but at least they where sealed in the plastic which does protect them. The bags are harder to inspect the coins because of the writing on them, but easier to keep them clean the two other coins came in plastic flips, that where then sealed in the little plastic bags. the Bar was in its own sealed plastic that was thick and lets me inspect the silver. 3 of the coins where absolutely perfect when I examined them. the South African Krugerrand has very slight tiny bumps on the outer rim of the front side. it is so slight however that I'm not concerned, and the dots seem to be from the manufacturing at the mint, not from any mishandling by APMEX. The bar was the APMEX brand 1 ounce silver bar. The symbol and writing on the bar seems very nice and clean, however along the outside edge when looking face on to the bar, there was a noticable ridge that went along most but not all of the outside edge. looking edge on it didn't seem that it was a bent edge, so I can only assume its a tiny bit of extra silver. its not too bad, and the writing on the bar is very nice so overall I'm pleased. I will most likely be buying more of there brand bar because I like the look of it, so I will report back if the error is on all the bars or just the first one I bought. Since I had no major issues with the order, I cant really comment on the customer service except that when I asked questions before purchasing, they did respond back to me. I received info from them on a frequent buyers program of some sort, and I will be using that in the future. In all, I am very pleased with my first purchase from this company, and will be making more purchases in the near future of silver, and perhaps some platinum. I hope this review helps anyone interested in this company for buying there silver.

Knowing APMEX is the Do-Right coin source for me, I purchased a birth-year coin as a gift for my sister. The price-point was 48% less than the next higher-priced coin. My sister was Very Happy..!

So far all good and happy with purchasers

APMEX slips reject coins into rolls advertised as BU. Milk spots, blemishes and gouges. They even dropped a 600 dollar coin and damaged it badly. No more business from me.

I bought gold coins some years ago. With gold trading at a relatively high price I began looking for a place to sell. What I wanted was a known price and a reasonably quick transaction over a few days. I contacted a local gold buyer with an internet listing and was quoted spot price with a 10 percent transaction cost. I then looked at several online dealers and decided on the limited reviews I could find from sellers of gold coins to go with APMEX. I was quoted a fair price which was a few percent below the gold coin price and very close to the current spot price. When I accepted the offer they sent a purchase order quoting the price and a fee of $28 for shipping through an insured UPS arrangement. I sent the coins which took two days to arrive and on that date I received a message that My coins were received. The next business day I was notified that payment would be made by ACH. The next day the deposit was in the bank. I had some reluctance because of the distance involved but the transaction proceeded as described above which I considered just what was promised. Now my coins were uncirculated American Eagles so there was no isuu s with grading or weight which is why I buy the US Minted coins. A good experience that brought a fair price in several days. I would use APMEX again for gold or silver Eagles for either a purchase or a sale.

I have always had excellent customer service here. My orders have always been correct and I've always have received everything I ordered. I enjoy their selections, variety, and fair pricing. My only complaint or wish is it they would cease to use the US Postal Service. Any delay in receiving my order has been a result of the postal services poor service. I feel that they are a less than secure method of delivery given the amount of theft or indifference toward the mail the postal carriers have. I would much rather see this turned over to UPS or FedEx.

So many negatives reviews, just wanted to point out they are the vocal minority. Most purchases are probably like mine. You go through the purchase process (I did wire transfer early on a Wednesday), coins were in the mail the SAME DAY and in hand on Friday. I bought PCGS rated coins to avoid the whole "tarnished" and "scratched" dance that can occur with loose coins (at less than 1% total cost difference). Honestly coun't be happier with the whole purchase. If you're cruising reviews, remember that most people who are Happy with their buys don't ever leave a review. Most who are Unhappy do leave reviews, because misery loves company.

I have been purchasing from APMEX for over 10 years now. I have never had a single problem with any order. I have also referred numerous people to them and they too have never had any problems. Every order comes when they say and it is what they say.

At first I did have a negative experience related to my payment method. I had made a mistake and selected the wrong payment method. Getting that payment method changed and corrected took a little bit of effort, in this case, but to be clear the mistake was mine. After a short delay and after following up with APMEX on the telephone (I spoke with Nick), the problem has been corrected. APMEX also has an active social media presence and they reached out from there to provide additional assistance. I have bumped my review up to 5 stars. APMEX has really reached out and taken care of my problem. They have demonstrated that they value me as a customer. I will continue to purchase precious metals from them. Precious metals are a big part of my retirement plan and also a part of my children's college fund. As such I plan to make purchases periodically into the future. Thank you APMEX- you corrected my problem, took care of me and, and have earned my continued business and loyalty.
