Gold/Silver Merchants Accepting BTC -- Recommendations?

[nightengale]

I'm new to the forum and mining -- hence the post here in the Newbies section  : )  ...  but learning as I go.

I have a few GPUs running and after a few weeks have mined a little over 1 BTC. I'm looking at a few of the precious metals sites and am wondering if anyone has any recommendations or has had any bad experiences?

Coinabul and AmagiMetals seem to stand out, but the former's prices appear inflated.

Thanks in advance for any perspective anyone can offer.

Doing some searching, I haven't seen that great of reviews about coinabul. I'm not sure about agrimetals.

I recommend people petition apmex to look into accepting btc. But that doesn't help you right now.

I would also like to hear some other members talk from experience about this topic, at some point I want to invest some BTC into metals.

I bought from Amagi Metals before I or they got into bitcoins, and they seem to be doing a good job. http://www.amagimetals.com/

I think Roberts & Roberts might accept bitcoins. http://rrbi.co/

http://donttreadonmeme.com/ does, and I know these guys personally as good folks. They get their silver dimes from Roberts & Roberts.

Lastly, I sell gold and silver intended not for investment but for trade and in small amounts. https://shiresilver.com
