Peaceplan: I just got this email from Jason Hommel - a place to auction PM's. It is not even open yet but will be soon - later today. It may be worth a look see for picking up some metal. I have no idea but I would assume you have the same type risk as ebay... The email is below!

New Auction Site: ONE OVER SPOT

Silver Stock Report
by Jason Hommel, November 4th, 2010
The Silver Market Manipulation on COMEX became so obvious two years ago, that it inspired the creation of a new silver & gold market platform, "One Over Spot", opening on November 5th at 6PM (EDT).
The new auction site for precious metals is called "One Over Spot" www.oneoverspot.com (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=lyiszpbab&et=1103877279408&s=5272&e=001abMoDbSzmqBr-qhgdaE_HlSc9R8oZ3YpERdFVxRH54FmXKMmc_BrmKjrBFbt-dSGafIBn9HPE1Jgx3obm3EBpcsTL48xk9xIU9wvy5D6S8Mw-F7Uwxzzag==) That's the name, because they charge listers only 1% over the final auction price for the listing.
Unlike any other auction site I've seen thus far (except for ebay), "One Over Spot" is open to all potential sellers.
But Ebay is becoming increasingly hostile to bullion transactions, given the trouble with chargebacks on credit cards, and the high transaction fees that range from 5 to 15%.
Who are the developers behind One Over Spot? I helped inspire it, and helped with consulting, and received shares. One Over Spot, Inc., was founded by Bob Davidson and Kurt Larson, two entrepreneurs with over 60 years of management and engineering experience between them. All of the Web site and trading platform code was written by their Senior Developer, Brian Poteat.
One Over Spot was developed in response to my article two years ago:
The World Needs a Free Market in Silver
http://silverstockreport.com/2008/freemarket.html (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=lyiszpbab&et=1103877279408&s=5272&e=001abMoDbSzmqCR6d4qNBo2hEvgbcSOYZ2VsnrS6hj5c-nm7uQLiPg0Ly1myw7acSDH4iRAHHp14BsuPwvkHAkQUTtfNfeU N_mwI8MtYn8x9fqy3D26pntvnRqs_hOshymci5l5ul2cwW2nJe rvg6aoLA==)
One Over Spot is offering readers of the Silver Stock Report a discount of 50% off your first transaction fee. Enter the promo code JASON at the bottom of the item information page when you create your listing and the fee will only be 0.5% when your listing closes with a winner.
Why Use One Over Spot?:
1) Lowest Auction Fees
There are no listing fees! Listers pay a Transaction Fee of just 1% on the winning bid or purchase.
2) Member Verification
Four separate verification systems and an Advanced Fraud Detection Suite together form a tough defense to keep out fraudsters.
3) Anti-Shill Technology
Auction Rewind (TM) prevents both shill and shield bids from affecting the free-market outcome of a fair auction.
Stealth Proxy (TM) makes it practically impossible to determine another bidder's proxy bid limit through experimental bidding.
4) Comprehensive Feedback
OOS feedback, imported eBay feedback, seller ratings, dispute statistics, account status, canceled listings, retracted bids, suspensions, policy violations, and other statistics.
5) Soft-Close Auctions
All OOS auctions have scheduled end times, but they cannot officially close until 10 minutes have passed without a bid. This ensures the most accurate final price.
6) Multiple Auction Types
English forward and reverse, Dutch forward and reverse, Buy Now and Sell Now.
7) Unlimited Trade Size
There are no account limits on the value or quantity of the items that can be traded. (Plus discounts for trades over $100,000)
8) Transaction Security
Extended Validation (EV) Certificate issued by an independently-audited Certification Authority.
Secure credit card transactions using Starfield Technologies 256-bit SSL encryption.
In addition to all of the above reasons, One Over Spot has several significant upgrades already in development for delivery by next year. Dealers will appreciate Variable Reserve (TM), which will allow a listing reserve to track spot price plus custom premium. A language translation service will be added to assist members from foreign countries. In a related service, members who choose to disclose their country of origin can have their username appear in search results for that country. Members who want to keep up with auctions while on-the-go will be able to access One Over Spot using a mobile web access solution. Other planned enhancements include: RSS feeds, remote image hosting, automatic alerts, bulk item uploads, an online store, API service, and more.
