Costco needs to bring it down to $2039 - This is the longest it's been available and hasn't sold out !!!

Apologies for what I'm sure are stupid questions but appreciate in advance your thoughts:

1. Are these easy to dispose of? And if so, who buys this?
2. Today, if this costs me $2080 what would it typically sell for if I need to convert it (assuming that the price of gold holds steady)?

I'm trying to figure out how liquid this asset truly is and how much of a premium am I paying to diversify from stocks/cash into physical metals.

Also, any restrictions on using the Costco Visa? Assuming this would be eligible for 4% back between the card and the Executive Membership.

Your local coin shop can answer both of your questions.

IMO there's only two reasons to buy these:
1. You are trying to hit credit card spending bonuses.
2. You plan to hold this long term.

It's not worth the hassle if you are just trying to flip them for minimal, if any, profit, even after the 4% cash back.

Doesn't really look like it outperforms stock but I guess some people like having physical objects

IMO buying gold is more of a hedge - if you think 1) long term appreciate/diversification or 2) world is ending and paper money will be useless. These listings typically sell out very quickly, gold seems to be more sought after right now with everything going on.

Having said that, keep in mind that you'll be charged your state's sales tax on this purchase

I am in the positive on all of my gold purchases, as it is at an all time high.

That said, I haven't sold any. But gold was $1650 not even 3 years ago.

Thats not huge but it's not nothing if you like the idea of some of your net worth in a phsyical rare metal commodity.

Gold is made during the explosion of stars.

If you want a hedge, GLD is much easier to buy and sell. If you think the world will end, buy essentials like food and medicine, maybe a farm to live on.
