1

Can I buy over the counter from Barcelona Gold?

Barcelona Gold keeps a large quantity of stock on site, which is available for immediate collection. Please contact a member of our trading team to inquire about any particular items.

2

Can you store my precious metals for me?

Yes, you can avail of the option of renting a safe deposit box in Barcelona Vaults. The box will be in your name and only you will have access to it. The rental is a set annual fee, which means that you can store as much in your box as it will allow without being subject to precious metal price fluctuations experienced when charged a % fee of the value of your metal with other storage providers. You can also store many other items in your box, not just precious metals.

3

What forms of payment do you accept?

Barcelona Gold accepts payment by bank transfer, cheque or cash. It is also possible to pay for smaller transactions using debit card.

4

Should I buy coins or bars?

The coins and bars that Barcelona Gold supply are all investment grade, solid gold products. Each bar and coin carries a premium above the spot price of the metal. The premium is determined by the availability, desirability, mining, minting and refining costs. Typically, coins command higher premiums than bars. Unless you have a preference for a particular item, it is usually cheaper to purchase bullion bars.

5

Which type of coins should I buy?

This is really a personal preference. The gold content in coins vary from 90% to 917/1000 to 999.9/1000 – this does not necessarily mean that a coin with 90% gold content is worth any less than the coin with 999.9/1000 purity – in the world of coins supply and demand is also a factor. Talk to any of our team for more details on the different types of coins available to you and what will suit you best.

6

Do you base your buying / selling prices on the live bullion price?

Yes, we take the live price and add/subtract the premium applicable to the particular coin or bar.
