- Do you accept credit card payments?

Yes, we accept most credit cards, with the sole exception of American Express. But if you pay by card, we will have to charge the buyer the commission assessed by payment systems for each card transaction. However payment systems usually tack on a 2-3% premium to the total transaction amount, depending on the type of the card. The retail sales of clothing or products involve a trade margin of 40% or more. Under such circumstances, sellers are willing to accept Visa or MasterCard payments and pay an additional fee for this service, without buyers being involved. However, taking into account that an average retail margin for gold coins ranges from 0.8 to 1.4%, vendors cannot afford to payi an additional 2-3% fee per transaction, so they pass on these additional fees to the owner of the card. That's the way all coin stores operate in the US and in Europe. It's always 2-4% cheaper to purchase coins via cash or a bank transfer than by using a plastic card.
