Well I finally got around to dropping in on the Perth Mint.

after looking over the various bars and coins I ended up buying a gramms
of 99.99% gold (0.03 oz) in three little lumps.

I then found a slightly unpleasent surprise, precious metals in Australia
are now only GST exempt in they are coins or have the '9999' stamped on
them, so instead of paying 1% over spot I got lumped with a 10% tax on
top.

Still, pretty yellow lumps.  Got to save up for one of the bars now.

Just thought I'd share the experience with everyone.


     cya,     Andrew...

PS:metalsavings keeps saying they have no gold to do withdrawals with
lately, am I just logging on at bad times?
