I would like GBI to explain how account valuation works. More specifically…….. every time I check account value, it is always lower than yesterday. Even if gold is up $100 today, my account is valued... Toon meer

I emailed twice with no response to…

I emailed twice with no response to ship my gold. I waited two weeks and decided to call. I was quoted shipment costs of $1,000. A week later I asked for an update and got another quote for $3,400. Big difference. I asked them cancel the shipment until I decide to sell and have not heard back.

Antwoord van GBI Direct (Formerly Hard Assets Alliance)

I sincerely apologize for the communication breakdowns you experienced - you should never have to wait weeks for responses or receive conflicting information.
The pricing discrepancy from $1,000 to $3,400 reflects different shipping methods (the higher cost is for armored transport required for high-value shipments). However, that should have been clearly explained upfront, not discovered through conflicting quotes.
I'd like to ensure this is properly resolved. Please reach out to our team directly so we can clarify and discuss options that work for you.
We will do better on response times and clarity. Thank you for the feedback.

Good experience with Hard Assets

I have been able to control my purchases and sales efficiently. The website is easy to maneuver. I like the storage relationship with Brinks and the ease and speed of closing transactions. I had some of my PM mailed to me and they arrived on time and I was pleased with the product delivered.

Minor storage funding irregularly.

Navigating the site is easy. Idid have a problem in that I had funds available that were not used to pay my storage fees. I was informed my fees were unpaid so I quickly had funds transferred to my account' That's when I realized I had funds in my account before I did the transfer.

very pleased

I am very pleased with all aspects of HAA. I would suggest only minor changes to the statements: adding in costs basis and value increase or decrease.

Straightforward

For non-IRA account: Prices and cost are clear, support is prompt and knowledgeable.
But, based on experience several years ago: their IRA partner is awful -- I would not have anything to do with that organization.

Our current IRA partner is Equity Trust, as we distanced ourselves from the one from years ago. Thank you for your feedback!

Simple purchase process

The purchase process is simple and problem free. Buy prices are above going rates, however, the mark-ups may be typical. Have not experienced the selling process yet.
