          They're selling 12.5 kg bars. At least 1/4 million pounds a piece at today's prices.

          I'll take four.

            4 bricks is about the sum of your BTL empire. Not gold ones though

              Hmm, I'll hand the gold over to my associate, then load the big sports bag with a heavy substitute and then claim the theft on my insurance. That way I get the payout and the gold.

              The only puzzle is what would be a suitable substitute. I know - plutonium. ...erm can you give me the contact details of your Russian friends.

                Harrods won't sell to a company.

                If I buy it myself, then sell to the company are there any special rules I have to apply (as an individual not a trader)?

                Does anybody know where to look as google isn't immediately helpful (anybody suggesting majestic can go to the back of the class)?

                  Christ, do you think you will be getting a good deal buying gold bars from Harrod's?



                  If you really want to hold physical gold (and risk someone breaking in and killing you to rob it from you).

                    I expect it to be competitive. I doubt the premiums are significantly different from either of the retailers I know about (ATS Bullion & City Forex).
