Priority Mail International Medium Flat Rate Box $76.26

International Priority $94.14

What is the difference?

International Priority is FedEx and Flat Rate Box is USPS.

How are the bank account issues going?

Thank you for asking! Bank of America and Wells Fargo will not open any business accounts of businesses that accept or even hold bitcoins. We submitted applications to IAFCU and Silicon Valley and look forward to hearing from them!




Hoping for good news on the banking front in future; though I ethically am very pleased at the refusal of BoA and WF to come to the table ( [though not as much yet] Barter, Bitcoin and Bullion; the triple B component to a bankers worst nightmare).

Tips? Reply/PM or send coins to:

Just got an email update:

Thank you for contacting us. Our apologies for the error and any inconvenience it may have caused. We will ship the missing 1 OZ Silver Golden State Mint bar and you will receive tracking from USPS.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Awesome, Thanks!

Guess I'll go ahead with the rest of my order.

This is my 3rd order with Amagi. The first two weren't of any trouble whatsoever but the actions taken in reference to my third order is simply unacceptable.

My order was placed on July 2nd (specifically chose products in stock). Its is now the 31st and I have yet to receive my order or any explanation even after SEVERAL emails. On the 24th I was sent an email that my ordered had been shipped. That would of been great but the USPS tracking number Amagi directly sent me indicates nothing at all has even been sent. I was essentially sent tracking info from an electronic shipping label for a package that has never been received by USPS to be shipped.

Like I said in the beginning, the first two orders weren't bad but the stringing along and utter customer disregard is not acceptable for any order, let alone a larger sized one. I didn't want to post this experience but obviously it is probably the only way anything will get done about this situation.

Thank you for the post. The 5 gram gold bars were shipping a little slower than expected. However your order has shipped. I believe an email response was sent to you within 4 business hours as our policy is to respond to all email inquiries within 4 hours. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

just got my maple leafs today. you guys are my favorite metals dealer so far (fast shipping, tracking number, pay with BTC Smiley

i do have a question though. i understand buying a monster box (value over $10,000) requires an 8300 form to be filled because its legal tender. does this also apply to the generic rounds when the purchase is above $10,000 when paying with BTC?

At this time Form 8300 only applies if you purchase $10,000 worth of gold and silver in cash/money order or if you purchase legal tender coins with BTC. If you are purchasing bars/rounds, then we do not need you to fill out form 8300. Of course government regulations could change at any time in the future. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

I believe an email response was sent to you within 4 business hours as our policy is to respond to all email inquiries within 4 hours. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

A little slower than expected would of been fine if the product I order did not specifically say that it was currently in stock. Over a month waiting is hardly "slower than expected". An email was not sent to me 4 hours after my initial inquiry either. I was sent an email after I posted here in the forums about the situation, as I expected. At the end of the day I just honestly do not appreciate being strung along. I fully understand you are running a busy service so im just confused as to why you arent upfront and honest. Sending a customer a tracking number for an item that you currently do not have in your possession is not a honest business practice as im sure you know. Nor is specifically advertising an item as in stock when you know that is in fact not true. Nor is it a honest business practice to post in this forum that my order has been shipped when I have a email from you later that day saying it indeed has not been shipped at all.

I have a similar situation.  I am still waiting on an order placed on June 3.  It was finally shipped out to me, but it was not the correct order.  I sent back what I did not order and was told my correct order was shipping out.  I got a tracking number and it shows no delivery made.  Now my order is on hold again.  I wonder what they did with my order.  On the phone I was told it was sitting there ready to go, now its waiting on the mint.  The only explanations are that they took apart my order and sent it to other people, or it was never ready to begin with.

I think things will work out, I hope they will.  I am patiently waiting.

Good business practice is also admitting to a f*** up and saying hey we're sorry we screwed up. I'm assuming that didn't really happen either.

Ya nothing but LONG delays with amagi, I usually have to call or email after 2 weeks to remind them it hasnt shipped yet and these are "in stock" items.  Then suddenly my order is ready for shipment.  I have had a couple orders that took over 2 weeks to send then they sent it UPS ground which took another damn week, not sure why it was sent ground when I payed for PRIORITY, this happened with 2 different orders.  Not another order from me until you guys can get your act together.  Maybe try hiring an assistant.

Let's hope 2017 is better than 2016.

Not even close. I just honestly dont understand why games are even necessary. Essentially a business is an extension of a persons character. With that being said, I highly doubt ill be doing business with an unnecessarily deceptive company/ person now that I am fully aware of it, especially when we're dealing with BTC.

Alot of people may ignore this warning but

DO NOT ORDER FROM AMAGI METALS. 

The lies coming from these people are ridiculous, unacceptable and simply mind blowing to say the least.

I'll see with my current wave of orders.  I haven't had any issues other than generally slow delivery, but I know that going in as most of the stuff I order is backordered.

The shipping info just means the label has been created - it doesn't mean it's actually been dropped into the postage system.

So far, everything I've ordered has shown up eventually.
