I bought $100 Face Wash quarters. They mixed 200 fair/good coins with 200 EF/AU coins. When placed in plastic coin tubes there 15 coins short. I called Frank at Cus Service, no help. I will be buying local from here forward.
Good fair prices honest service sent on a timely manner. There are a lot of companies out there that I don't trust but this is not one of them.

I went online to purchase from this company. In checking out, I accidentally hit the pay by check instead of the credit card option. Once this happened, I could no longer move forward or backwards in the system. I could not uncheck the option to change it to credit. I backed out of the page and re-ordered the product. Weeks later I got a bill for a cancelled order. I never hit the place order button. Not only that, but the bill that came was for the 35.00 cancellation fee, plus a 47.46 market loss ( silver price barely moved) and a cancellation fee of 47.46. When I tried to contact them about this, they had no interest in being reasonable. This is their policy. Fraud. Do not do business with this company.
Hello Greg,
We apologize for any cancellation fee confusion. We have cancellation fees because this is a live market business. Cancellation fees are calculated as 5% of the order total or $35, whichever is greater, plus any applicable market loss. Every customer must agree to these terms prior to submitting their order, whether they place the order online or over the phone with an agent.
When an order is placed, we email you the order confirmation. In addition, we email you letting you know we are still awaiting payment for an order if we have not received it after 7 days of placing the order. We then call you for payment. Finally, the order is cancelled if we do not hear back.
We'd be happy to help you and look into your cancellation fees. You can email us at [email protected] or 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.

Canceled an order within 10 minutes of mistakenly placing it and was charged a cancelation fee even though silver was trading higher. SCAMMERS... Better to use Bullion Exchange.

DO NOT buy from. They will make you wait 30 days for refund if your package gets lost and no one to talk to. Sends you generic message back
Hello Victor,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
I am sorry to hear that you did not receive the package, however, please know that every order we ship is fully insured. Our team is currently working on your lost package investigation. For a general timeframe, our insurance requires an investigation to be open for 30 days after the customer initially files a claim. If the package cannot be recovered within that time, a new package will be issued.
We appreciate your patience and understanding throughout this investigation. If you have any additional questions about your investigation, please email us at [email protected] or 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.

So, my wife ordered silver for the kids and when we went to pay, their site would not take my payment. At the time, we were just starting chemo treatments and I didn't have time to follow up on the phone for an hour. About a month later, I get a cancellation bill for $400 and threatening to send it to collections if I didn't pay it. I called and explained the situation. These heartless bastards didn't care. They said pay or it is going to collections. They were not out silver and offered to go through with the order even though the silver is about the same or a bit lower in price. However, they didn't care. Since Biden is rewarding people with low credit scores, told them that they can refer it to a collections agency. They will not get one dime from me as it was their system that would not accept the payment! Don't use these heartless SOBs for your investments! Sad that they are willing to lose customers over a BS $400 fee!

I mirror Matt's experience in (trust pilot) 6/6/23
This experience proves to me that "SD Bullion" is not an "above board" company. You as well?
Basically the same experience on June 7th.
1st time buyer, responded to a flash sale.
The order was put through as I was attempting to find area access to filling out bank routing number etc. prior to the customary payment confirmation. I called and also got cut off.(pattern?) I send an email to cancel. I get a return call and then, after the fact, I am told of the inflated cancellation fee's.(extortion). These facts should be prominently displayed during the process, not be surreptitiously discussed after the fact. Deceitful! They use an outside source for wire transfers. "Plaid" They required my user name and password to access my bank account. Absurd! Who is stupid enough to give personal banking information, on line no less? The inflated extortion fee's are also ridiculous. The trading of silver at the time was 10 cents less than I was charged, and they inflated considerably, the market movement upward to feloniously overcharge said cancellation fee. ( I can provide a snapshot for proof). This is the first time I have ever seen an order process prior to payment confirmation. Determine for yourself. Would you trust doing business with such a greedy and disingenuous company where you are not given the opportunity to back out with all these obstructions?
These obstructions came after the fact. It is a trap. (In my mind by design) Do not let yourself get trapped in this money grabbing ploy! This experience proves to me that "SD Bullion" is not an "above board" company. You as well?
Hello Denis,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
Plaid enables us to utilize e-checks without our servers storing your bank account information. Instead the information is encrypted and tokenized.
It is much more secure than a customer typing their bank information into a website. Previously, if someone had a personal check account you had written them, they would be able to use the routing number and account number off the bottom of the check.
By using this service, it enables us to offer e-checks to more customers. Previously we were unable to offer a first time customer the ability to pay via e-check. Furthermore, we are able to ship orders faster as personal checks take time to arrive to us in the mail and bounced check time varies based on the bank.
Individuals who have established a history and reached threshold order amounts are still eligible to use the previous system we had in place.
If the system is not for you, we completely understand. We invite you to use one of the other seven payment methods we have available on SD Bullion.

Found what I was looking for very easy. Placed order and arrived very quickly.
New to SD Bullion and love it, low decent competitive premiums and quality products. Love the electronic check discount. Time between payment and shipment could be a little faster but all in all 5 stars

Once we fully verify payment the order moves into our shipping queue and will ship out in 1-3 business days due to high order volume but could take slightly longer. After the order ships, you will receive an email that includes the tracking information.

I received my order from 5/4 and 5/8 but I found them down in mailbox.
Prior orders from FedEx were just left with house members...
I am waiting for my 5/15 order of 30 Austrians Phils but it is being held up waiting for 10 cowboys and aliens.
Please make it so it is signed for: Thank you.

Received delivery of of Archangel Michael 1 oz gold bar yesterday. I think alot of people are buying gold over concerns about inflation, national debt and future of our dollar. It took about 4 weeks to receive the gold which was fine by me. Price was locked in at purchase. It came encapsulated with Cert-Lock which was one of the reasons I bought through SD Bullion. However, I could not down load the app for my phone because the app was an older version and not compatible for my Samsung S20+phone. Other than that, the bar was pristine and I was very satisfied with purchase. I will be buying from this company again in the future.

Ordered prior to Memorial Day weekend and got them early. No problems as usual thanks guys!
I got my order! It came before I went on vacation. Great service as always.
Business transactions were smooth and shipping swift. Very recommended. Get your metal from a credible company, my choice is SDBULLION.COM
I was getting a little worried about the order because the tracking showed that my order was in Detroit longer than it should have been. I paid for a faster delivery service but did not get it. I was satisfied that I received the order finally.

Answer: Company charged me $50 fee because I filed credit card chargeback on the order that didn't arrive. Below is customer service message to me. Since when did company charge consumers $50 fee for filing a chargeback? I filed claim on BBB to resolve the issue. We received a charge back for this 07/09/2019. Since you were unwilling to follow our process for a lost packagewhich would have been much faster than filing a charge back a month lateryour account has been suspended indefinitely and a balance of $50 to cover fees imposed on us because of this unnecessary charge back is due.

Answer: We ship fully insured via USPS, UPS, or FedEx. The default shipping option would be selected by the shipping team in accordance with our insurance policies and efficiency. Most, but not all, of our orders ship with a signature required. However, you can rest assured all of our orders are fully insured. If you want to be guaranteed a signature, we do offer the ability to add it on, it would be $4.95 for the signature plus $14.95 for our expedited shipping. We offer FedEx or USPS.
Answer: When will Gold price go back to $300/oz - seems as reasonable a question as many others (:}
