Ordering

A $50 hold will be placed on your card to lock in your market price which will be returned to your card within 7 days once your payment is made in full within the given time period. If you do not make the payment on time, your order will be cancelled and your card will be subject to a $50 fee and any applicable market loss.

Precious metals are bars, ingots, coins or wafers of gold and platinum that are refined to a purity level of 99.5%+. Silver is also a precious metal if it is refined to a purity level of 99.9%+.  If a precious metal meets the definition of a financial instrument, there is no GST/HST charged. (Excise Tax Act, subsection 123).

For Canadian transactions that are subject to Provincial and Federal Sales Tax including shipping and insurance charges, HST rates will vary based on the province of the shipping address provided.
