Not true...
April 6, 2022

Somehow, spot prices were different, (their advantage), than any other spot price found online. Was told there would be "no slicks", not true. Have many that have no dates. I have only checked part of a bag. Look at the one in the center of the pic. The ones without any part of a date, will be hard to sell as junk silver. I do not think that DS Bullion would buy them.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review!

I’m sorry to hear that you’re unhappy with your 90% coins. Because these coins were all minted over 50 years ago, they are all generally in worn condition, unless marked otherwise. Most of the coins that we sell do have all features visible, but we do also verify everything before shipping it out. We would certainly buy these coins back from you if you choose to sell!

I apologize for the inconvenience and any confusion with this order. You are always welcome to contact us about any product concerns, and we can always review images of products that you email us. Our email is sales@sdbullion.com, and our phone number is 1-800-294-8732. We are available from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. est Monday through Thursday and from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. est on Friday.

Thank you for the feedback!

Best,

I have 2 orders and ******* is charging 4% if uses credit card. The market price is
$1982 and grand total becomes $2132. I thought I was paying $2050 something and the check out did not warn you or anything. The first order is not arrived yet and you can't do anything about it. You can't cancel because they charge you Cancellation fees are calculated as 5% of the order total or $35, whichever is greater, plus any applicable market loss. They make sure you pay.

Hello Cody,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

The credit, debit, and Paypal pricing is advertised on every product page in the pricing grid while browsing. This is also visible when you are selecting payment method on the order review page prior to placing the order.

This payment structure is identical to all bullion dealers in the precious metals industry, and is not specific to our company. We offer a cash discount price because the cost to process a credit transaction is often as much as the profit would be. This is due to the fees from credit card companies and the expense of fraud prevention systems that are unfortunately very necessary in this industry.

Thank you for your feedback!

Best,

Got my silver!
April 11, 2023

First time ordering from you and I picked your busiest month. Took a little longer than I expected but it is understandable with the volume increase. Wish I ordered more as prices have gone up quite a bit since then.

Clowns!
May 18, 2022

This company is a Joke. They do Not communicate, or Care when there is an issue. They just bury their head in the sand. Very unresponsive, or caring! I'm through doing business with SD Bullion, period!

They are far cheaper than my local shops and have a larger selection. I normally buy whatever they have the cheapest for silver. I will say I bought my majority of silver from SD with few exceptions. Wish there were other faster ways to send money that would not cost extra like sending a check by mail or need to go to the bank. All in all they work great for me. Very happy.

Bad Quality Product
February 14, 2023

8/15/2023
The coins I receive from this company are poor quality compared to its competition like Apmex and JM Bullion. A good knick right behind his neck that just draws your eyes right to it. Coin was also not in its flip and was freely moving around in the bubble wrap. Last shipment was a tube of brittanias missing the foam insert and you can guess the quality of those coins. I suppose that's why they undercut the others by a few dollars but I'm tired of spending money on poor quality. Won't do business with SD Bullion again. Will continue dealing with Apmex, JM Bullion and others.

Nice little gouge right behind his neck. Your eye is drawn right to it every time you look at it. Received it 8/15/2023 and will be selling it for a loss this week at my LCS. Quality from SD Bullion is unacceptable and will not do business with them.

Hello Sean,

Thank you for your feedback.

Our standard shipping policies are to fill tubes with foam inserts, that way the coins don't move around inside of the tubes when in transit.

A manager reached out to you in order to resolve this error and make this issue right.

If you have any additional questions or if there's anything else we can assist you with, please do not hesitate to call our bullion team at 1-800-294-8732. We are available from 8 a.m.-8 p.m. EST Monday through Thursday and from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. EST on Friday.

Thank you for supporting us by purchasing your gold, platinum, and silver from SDBullion.com!

Sincerely,

Though there was an issue with ordering on the web site, "The Doc" made good on a price I could not lock in because of technical difficulties. I have shopped the others, and keep coming back to SD Bullion. They have the best prices and are excellent when it comes to customer service.

As a first time buyer from South Africa, my experience left me frustrated. They debited my account more than the total locked price. No one even bothers to reply my email. This was my first and last order. Never again!

Rita,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review!

Regarding your recent credit card order, pricing is visible and locked in before you submit an order. The pricing may have increased during checkout for a couple reasons:
1. International shipping rates are calculated and added at checkout after you've added your shipping address. This pricing is added before an order is submitted.
2. Any card transaction incurs a 4% fee, which is also visible at checkout before submitting your order after you've selected your payment method.
3. Pricing at checkout is locked for five minutes. Outside of this time frame, it updates to the market again and may increase if the market has gone up.

We did not receive any emails from you, please email us at sales@sdbullion.com with any further questions. Let us know if there's anything further we can assist with!

Best,

NO worries, excellent updates, BEST price, great packaging... I always review and compare to, at least, three other merchants.
I have ordered from SD Bullion, only... because the other vendors are not as economical nor as clear regarding what to expect in the purchase, service and delivery processes..

I've spent several thousand dollars in the past couple of months with this company and they convey they are a good Christan company who "does business the old fashioned way" and they "deliver the highest quality products". These are their words. Their actions however, speak louder than their empty words. I wanted to trust they would ship me (BU) brilliant uncirculated coins and rounds without obvious glaring flaws. Instead, and on more than one instance, I receive flawed coins and rounds, (30) rounds all with the same exact flaw. Then Frank in their customer service tells me if I ship these ones back that they won't guarantee that the exchange ones I'll get will be any better and that they could even be worse. No guarantees! How's that for service the old fashioned way, and the highest quality products? These are their words

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback! Bullion coins tend to have minor imperfections from the manufacturing process. This has no impact on the value of the bullion. If you would like to exchange the products you received, we would be happy to do so.

However, in the interest of transparency and honesty, our representative was accurate by letting you know the exchange coins could have minor imperfections as well. We would like to bring to your attention that we do have graded and proof editions. If you are a collector looking for flawless coins, we would recommend purchasing graded MS70 or proof editions of the bullion coins. Graded and proof coins are inspected by the mint for quality of strike and for any flaws.

Please let us know if you would like to exchange the products by emailing in to sales@sdbullion.com.

Thank you for your feedback with us.

Sincerely,

SD Bullion Customer Service.

Flawless!
August 15, 2018

Best prices, easy to understand website and straightforward ordering. The check was handled in a timely manner and shipping same shortly thereafter. The $100 "junk" silver half dollar 'bag' had some Barbers worth extra! Some of the Franklins were in very good shape.

Latest Purchase
October 1, 2018

No problems. What I ordered was received in a timely processing event. Note: Used personal check, for the first time, without issue.

Note to others: My package was very securely wrapped, as with past orders. Having opened many packages in the past, both work and personal. I knew how to open with safety in mind. Always move sharp tools away from the body and keep your second hand and arm clear. Open with patience and care, order is very well wrapped.

No problems here
March 20, 2023

I have bought silver bars from many online retailers. A friend recommended SD and their prices were excellent. I paid by check so I wouldn't have to pay for credit card fees. Paid $1.89 over spot for a 100 OZ bar. With processing and check clearing, it arrived at my house this morning. So 10 days from purchase to free delivery. I'll be buying a lot from them from now on.

Pre 1933 Gold Double Eagle
March 18, 2023

First 1 oz. Gold coin I have purchased. I'm happy with the purchase. I wish processing could be quicker but I understand verification of pmt is part of doing business on the internet. I also understand at this point in time precious metals are in high demand due to bank failures and high inflation. However, SD bullion remains competitive and is my go to bullion dealer when I'm looking for silver and gold.

This was my first order from SD Bullion for 100 of the 2017 American Silver Eagle coins. Paid by check and it was shipped within two business days of my check being deposited. I was able to monitor the shipment with tracking information provided and it arrived as scheduled. Packaging was good, no issues. Overall, a great first experience.

From order to delivery - you don't disappoint! S D Bullion in over $35,000 in transaction just this year has never let me down. The order is always perfect and they are available from order to delivery for any question. I suggest for those that have waiting period issues that they use bank wire as my order is always processed either same day as wire or very next day. Keep up the stellar job!

Our First Time
April 25, 2023

This is the first time we purchased precious metals online or otherwise. We found SD Bullion to be very reputable and easy to work. SD Bullion came highly recommended by a number of individuals that we follow on YouTube, etc. We were kept informed every step of the way until we receive our metals.
Thanks for everything.
