I know you can not buy bullion strike ASE from the mint. From what I read, the mint charges $2.00 over spot premium. How can one charge less than Spot plus 2 for a NEW ASE?...

again on my mobil so excuse the grammer.

Do you have an ad or a web link?
Its probably a loss leader. They try to sell you something for a lose in hopes that you will buy something else for a much higher profit margin. Or they hope to get your information such as your name, phone number email or snail mail addresses etc. and the sell those.

I think that price is what they charge when you buy 5000 ounces at a time.
Remember, 5000 ounces counts as 1 unit when the majors are buying from the mint.
This seems in line with what the several major dealers would be paying to buy from the mint.
Not saying this is fact, but what I have heard in discussions with some of my BIG local guys.

Simple, buy when spot price is low and sell when spot price is high.

I have a correction to the minimum order from the mint on ASE
25000 ounces is the minimum order.
You also must arrange and supply an armored truck pickup and delivery to your place of business.

I believe this is due to the massive order amounts that one has to order to receieve a break in the price. I'm not sure what that number is but its very large.
