I believe there's a threshold that if they sell less than £70,000 a year to the UK then they do not have to charge VAT at 20%. Now obviously for coininvestdirect they would use that limit up within a month but these companies may not hit that in a year.

I'm talking £26.70 for Phillys, £27 for Maples, ASE's and really cheap shipping - for small time stackers like me who can only dream of Monster Boxes I don't think there are better prices.

I'm not going to post the link here, as they hold a REALLY small inventory but all I'll say is look at some of the overseas Ebayers with good reputation selling to the UK that are verified businesses. They all sell outside of Ebay a good £3-4 cheaper than they can on Ebay.

I do have concerns about buying from overseas on ebay as you can get stung with import tax and a handling fee from the firm that delivers your bullion. But its nice to know that you've managed to discover an alternative avenue for stacking.
