UK bullion dealers, ranked on what they charge
Scores are worked out every day from published prices, buyback prices, delivery terms and public company records. No dealer pays us, so none can pay to move up.

What isn't in the score
We have not bought from any dealer to rate them, so we don't rate packaging or customer service. Reviews on other sites aren't counted. Nobody types a score in: it changes only when the data does.
