If you are new to investing in precious metals, then here are a couple of things that I wish I had known about Goldco:
2. You must purchase premium metals in order to get the promotional free silver,
3. The process can take over a month,
4. When the money arrives, the call with the rep is to purchase the metals right then. Be ready to make decisions because it will be verified within 10 minutes after that call.
5. Do your research as the Goldco rep may say that no advice can be given, but that rep will offer you a package of metals to accept, adjust, or reject.

My initial contact from Goldco was Mr. Robin Hubbard. I was looking to rollover my IRA. He walked me through the process answering any questions I might have. He emailed me information I could review (along with some articles) while waiting for the Goldco information packet in the mail. We had a followup phone call after I had reviewed all info and he made sure all my questions again had been answered. Then we did the application process. Everyone I came in contact with to get my IRA paperwork processed was very professional and nice! Robin was most helpful getting everything to the finish line. It was a great experience.

The economy seems to be quite shaky. We decided that it was important to diversify and try to be ready for anything that could happen. We contacted Goldco and Chris and Marcus became our contact points. These two were extremely helpful. Chris was the main contact and over the number of calls, he was very friendly, courteous and was concerned even about our health (I had a knee replacement). Chris explained everything very clearly and presented options along the line we described as our goals. Chris was patient with us as we made the final decision. Chris outlined all that was going to happen, the agreement, the document we had to sign and the people that would be in contact with us to make the final purchase. We were extremely satisfied and intend to work with Goldco in the future. Thank you very much. Shirrel and Janet

I had a very smooth transition to Goldco. I lost a lot of value in my individual IRA that was invested in stocks. The last 2 years were a big blow. :( I now feel very safe that my savings will never go down and my future is very bright. Sal, David and Diana were excellent!

This transaction went extremely smoothly. The only lag was waiting for funds to transfer from my previous IRA account holder. Your staff is extremely pleasant, easy to talk with, knowledgeable, and they keep you informed every step of the way. I enjoyed my experience immensely! I will definitely refer others to your operation with pleasure!

Overall my experience was good with Goldco. As an alternative to being 100% in the stock market with my IRA I turned to Goldco to diversify and place some in precious metals. During the process I was presented information I had no idea about the metals market, but ended up making a decision I was comfortable with and understood. Time will tell if I made the right decision.

For the bulk of my purchase, American Gold Eagles, I am satisfied. But in regards to the silver portion of my purchase, I had hoped to have been shown products that didn't have such a high premium as that on American Silver Eagles.. And even with those premiums, I think that it should have qualified for the 10% silver bonus which it seemed to not be. A lot of advertising money pushes that 10% bonus but it appears that very little if any of their products qualify.

I was able to quickly and easily able to purchase gold and silver coins. Lou explained everything to me. I was able to decide what coins would work for my investment. He explained in terms I could understand of the different qualities of coins and from there explained each coin so I could easily pick out the ones I wanted.

Just completed my third purchase with John Vadset at Goldco. Like many people, I was a little intimidated by what I thought would be a complicated and confusing process of setting up a self-directed IRA and transferring money from existing retirement accounts into it to purchase physical gold and silver. Goldco walked me through every step, and every person I've spoken with has been friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. My eyes are now opened to a whole new way of investing and the numerous monetary and tax advantages of self-directed IRAs that include physical gold and silver. Wish I'd done this a decade ago!

Very pleased with the smooth transition from paper assets to physical assets, very professional and recommended. In this age of uncertainty and run away inflation it's comforting to know that physical metals will not lose value. Mike Hall directed me in the position best suited for growth, he answered all my questions perfectly.

Overall I am happy with the service provided, but I am disappointed in the allowable selections of metals, Only coins were suggested, no bars or other forms and I was uninformed about the added cost over the spot price per item. So when I did the math after the buying was done I was astonished at the instant and sizable loss I incurred in commissions and metal format costs over the spot price for 1oz of gold and silver that day.

I just rolled over my 401K to a IRA and then bought Gold with it. It took a few days for funding but it went very smooth. I am still in the process of setting everything up but the people at Goldco help me through everything and their follow-up was very fast. Also the 5 % silver for over $50,000 order was very nice also.
