New to buying gold (and silver) for the last 2 months. I have been going to a local shop that has a couple
Locations around where I live. They seem to have fair prices above spot, haven’t really sold but I did trade in a 2.5 gram for a 5 gram plus cash and I feel like they could’ve given me closer to spot and just took the margin they made in the premium. Would it be worth building a relationship there for everything or should I shop around? Thanks for any advice!

I have been investing in other assets for a long time so I did do some significant research. Just curious if place like this will tend to give you better deals if you’re loyal or if I should shop around more (they usually are cheaper than some online prices).
