because they weren't there last christmas.

Actually I bought them when gold was around $300 and got them out today to sell them.

It's a pretty good investment especially when inflation is on the rise.

I don't recommend buying any right now for $950 each but many are doing just that I'm sure. I also wouldn't invest anything you can't afford to lose because it can and does fall a lot faster than it rises.

I have a place in houston that sells them at market price and then buys them back at only like a $10 discount.

    Maybe you could take all that money and buy yourself a new cabinet. That one looks a tad worn.

    then I might not have any money left for audio :)

    I forgot to mention that krugerrands are bought and sold as bullion so they're only worth their weight in gold (1 ounce) and should be available at any reputable coin shop.

    The american gold eagle costs about $10 more for the same weight for some reason. Probably because they are collected more.
