Opening Day

 Well, it's finally here.  We opened our precious metals store today.  This has been one heck of a week!

I'm going to keep my "pimping" of the store to a minimum on this site, although I'll be talking about precious metals forever!  I'll be doing this introductory post, another when we are ready to start taking phone/Internet orders, and I'll make mention when I put an advertising icon on this page.  I'm sure there will be others, but that's all I have in my head right now.

I'll probably also do a post (or maybe a series of them) on what we went through to get this open.  It's been interesting as hell, and I think that some of what we learned might be helpful to others.  Opening a retail store was VERY different from my training/preparedness business, which is home-based.

We're called Solano Coin, Gold and Silver, in Vacaville, California.  We'll have two primary businesses - the buying and selling of primarily non-numismatic gold and silver coins, and the buying and selling of gold jewelry.

I need to do a post on buying scrap gold for your own stash (you can buy it on eBay).  There are some risks - which are very manageable - and great upside potential.

It's also one of the few regular ways you can buy gold for less than its melt value...
