Research framework
Dealer comparison resources
Use these criteria to compare dealers consistently, including pricing basis, delivery options, storage, buyback terms, and disclosure quality.
Comparison criteria
A useful dealer comparison should separate factual checks from opinion. Start with published pricing basis, delivery and collection options, storage availability, buyback policy, business identity, and clear fee disclosure.
What to check
- Whether prices are shown against live spot, fixed quotes, or indicative ranges.
- Whether VAT, delivery, insurance, and storage costs are clear before checkout.
- Whether buyback terms explain spreads, settlement times, and required documentation.
- Whether any commercial relationship is disclosed near the relevant link.
