“Outstanding rounds!”

Outstanding rounds! We left the choice up to SDB to choose our rounds. They sent our entire order, 40 rounds, in Buffalo's! Second time buying from SDB and certainly will not be the last.

Phantom C.
4/27/24

Ordered 2 royal mint una silver bars ( 10 oz) limited edition, paid $622 3 weeks ago, items in stock at the time order, never updated status. Called and placed on hold forever! Items now out of stock and will only allow exchange for lowered value bars and will not refund the difference in value ( silver is down form time of order in addition bars ordered now are not premium limited edition bars! Very rude an unethical company!

Prices and service great, simple, reliable. Just be aware you have to sign for delivery, which can make it difficult if you work lots! Thank you.

It took almost a month to receive my first purchase. Also, I purchased the introductory offer of five ounces of silver at spot price your choice but the advertising makes look look like it will be coins or rounds and I received a five ounce blob, I was also charged more than spot price supposedly because you don't consider my debit check card as a check so you increased the amount I paid. I think the premiums are ridiculously high and nearly impossible to recover unless the spot price skyrockets…
I'm grateful that you didn't just rip me off completely so thank you
A while back, I bought 28 Morgan silver dollars that turned out to be brass, thankfully, my bank helped me and gave me my money back
But I didn't know what to do with the counter fit coins. I tried to turn them into the police and they didn't want them. I tried to call the FBI and they referred me to a website where I filled out a very long form and never heard back from them so I have counterfeit US currency in my safe.
So again,
Thank you I'm grateful for a company I can trust,
If you have any more deals with reasonable or no premiums I will buy more. Otherwise I will not buy anything else because of the premiums…
Sincerely
gratefully yours,
Tracy Lee Rosellini….

Hello Tracy,

We understand your frustration with our shipping times. We are working around the clock 24-7 to ship out all open orders that are eligible to ship.

We appreciate your business with us, and know these are longer than our usual shipping times. Our website does have a discloser during the checkout screen of our temporary extended shipping times, and our Executive Team also sent out a message to all of our customers explaining our current situation here at SD Bullion. We appreciate your business with us and your understanding as we work to fulfill all our open orders.

The credit, debit, and Paypal pricing is advertised on every product page in the pricing grid while browsing. This is also visible when you are selecting payment method on the order review page prior to placing the order.

This payment structure is identical to all bullion dealers in the precious metals industry, and is not specific to our company. We offer a cash discount price because the cost to process a credit transaction is often as much as the profit would be. This is due to the fees from credit card companies and the expense of fraud prevention systems that are unfortunately very necessary in this industry.

Please feel free to contact us with any additional feedback or questions that you have.

Sincerely,

SD Bullion Customer Service

I wish I could give ZERO stars, because they don't even deserve one star. Sadly, I had the misfortune to curiously check the SDBullion.com site because I wanted to see what the final price of what an order would cost. It struck me that they had no credit card option and wanted a "Wire Transfer" for payment - just like other scammers on the internet ask for when they are trying to rip people off. As soon as I left this site, I received an email from them that an order had went through. Within seconds, I emailed them back to let them know that this was an error and to cancel it, I also questioned the fact that they didn't even take credit cards. In addition to emailing them, I tried to call them too - but no one answered the phone so I sent them another email. They admit to receiving my messages and NOT answering the phone, but they still didn't cancel my order until the following day, when I called them again and finally got someone on the phone. I also sent a few more emails the following day as well. Instead of correcting this error right away (like any decent company would after being asked to in writing) they start to harass and threaten me with collections - trying to extort their ridiculous cancellation fee of $1400+ for an order that they could have cancelled within minutes. When I tell them I won't pay this absurd amount for something I never received, they immediately try to get me to send them at least $300+ for their market loss. Saying they if i don't pay it, they are sending me to collection. After I hang up, they email me a cancellation invoice but their invented fee is on there and they have reverted back to demanding $1400! It really seems like they are trying to squeeze what ever amount they can out of people. Be warned, once they have your information, they will try to take advantage of you. Honestly, I can't believe this site is allowed to operate, and that they have the nerve to call themselves a business. They are professional con artists, and internet bullies. Don't even check this site and stay away!

Stay Away!

Hello Yvonne,

Thank you for your feedback.

According to our records we did have two missed calls from you on September 12th, it looks like one call you attempted was 11 seconds long, and the second call was already after we were closed for the day.

The email you sent to us shortly after you placed your order with us was to change your payment method from bank wire, to a credit card. You then sent a second email asking us to cancel the order. We responded to your emails the same day and prior to us closing. We asked you to call one of our representatives to help you change the payment method or cancel the order.

Cancelling an order must be done over the phone with a representative, per our terms of use which you agreed to when placing the order. "Any cancellation requests must be filed via telephone during normal business hours. SD Bullion will evaluate any request to cancel an order on a case-by-case basis and only under extraordinary circumstances will a cancellation be approved."

On September 13th, you called and spoke to a representative about your order. We attempted to work with you and get you to keep your order that you made with us. You however refused to pay for your order. You stated you wished to cancel your order because our company was not located in California. Our representative informed you if you choose to cancel the order that you would incur a cancellation fee. We offered you a discount to pay for only the market loss we incurred on your order, but again you refused to work with us.

All bullion dealers have the same type of cancellation policies and fees in place as we all have to hedge every order that is placed. Meaning when an order is locked in we must purchase a hedge of the same oz at that market price. When an order is canceled the bullion dealer takes a loss on those hedged ounces.

You refused to pay for your order that you purchased and refused to work with us to resolve the cancellation fees. If you wish to work with us to resolve this issue you can call us at 1-800-294-8732. We are available from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. EST Monday through Thursday and from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. EST on Friday.

Thank you again for your feedback!

Sincerely,

SD Bullion Customer Service
