I don't want to bust things up here but I was wondering if we could get back to the protocall of this thread for a minute. Tan Range? what is going on and why has the price dropped so low at this time? there hasn't been any news since June. Could there be a buying op. here? Regards Scott

Of COURSE, it is possible on a large scale! You're kidding yourself if you think it isn't. $35K in one toilet paper cardboard tube roll. 3 t.p. rolls=$105,000 30 rolls=$1 million. max 72# per attache case = 9 rolls 3 attache cases to a $1,000,000 How tough is this, Claude. How big is this hypothetical apartment building? Real Estate is a snap transaction for physical gold exchange in your example. R/E is ALWAYS so much down and payment on close. 2 deliveries? No big deal. Besides, hardly anyone really pays cash for real estate transactions, especially large ones. The tax shelter of interest income write off is just too juicy to pass up. BUT YOU ASKED, and I answered<g> Where do you store that kind/amoutn of gold. Well, Claude you MADE my precise point. If you can't find a place to store a cardboard toilet paper tube's worth of gold or 2 or EVEN a couple dozen of gold "tubes", then you aren't getting outdoors enough and getting enough sun. Where do you and the Mrs. keep the toilet paper????<g> Okay, your next "debate" point as loantech sees it. The assay is NO problem with my physical gold. What the heck do you think the notary has notarized anyhow? A recipe scribbled on a napkin? Assaying is NO problem. And I don't even assay raw gold anymore. That is a point of easy negotiation. Those sellers willing to accept gold have had to---at some point in their adult life--learned to test gold for purity. The 24K bottle is about the size of an eyedropper. No problemo. Fits in a shirt pocket with room to spare! Assay, smasssay. I used to believe argument too....that is...UNTIL I actually started using gold in the real world. Raw or refined. Make no dif. Au contraire, this "on a grand scale." Your contention otherwise is just so much Western Civ. ignorance you are exploiting to make a commission buck, Claude. Admit it. People all over the world use physical "assayed" OR RAW gold for large and small transactions. Just ask a local "terrorist," drug dealer, car dealer, bulk fuel dealer, irrigation dealer, doctor, dentist, heck even the priest knows what to do with physical gold donations!!! (However, I haven't tried to buy a DQ ice cream cone with raw gold...at least not yet<g>) It's just a skill, Claude, like riding a bicycle, or mowing grass. It's just that the latter two activities are "politically correct/acceptable" in the brainwashed-about-the-practicality-of-physical gold's-purchasing-power, in Western Civ's. [internet]Temporary threats that are unlikely to happen? C'mon, Claude, get real! What utopia do you live in up there in Canada that you don't have these "temporary internet threats" in your real life? Never gotten a server disconnect? Never had your security breached at virtual e-gold by an all too real hacker? Only takes one event hitting the news and there goes your ponzi/gold storage scheme of fractional virtual gold. Second picture coming up: okay, okay, I can't resist...here's 2 of 'em<g> YES, guarandamnteed .9999 pure, from just one truck transaction, not necessarily the most recent. And yes, that guarantee is in writing! (The form this .9999 gold is in was the SELLER's idea/choice, I just accomodated him.) eoni.com eoni.com dimensions mostly 1" deep, 2" wide, 4" long pile if arranged that way. I just poured it out onto a velvet cloth, shot the picture, poured it back into the bottle, and handed it over. (Nope, ain't telling which car dealership neither<vbg> your turn...
