As with any investment, you can lose money and past performance is not a guarantee of future performance results.

I made a phone call to Oxford Gold and talked to a woman named Lila, and she was very informative. This was the first time I was rolling some of my cash into a gold IRA, and she educated me on the different types of gold out there. I had her on speaker phone, and my wife was listening, and we both agreed that Lila seemed to know what she was talking about and wasn't trying to upsell us.

I also called around to a couple of places that I was not impressed with because their sales technique was to downplay my decision. I've been in sales most of my adult life, and you don't promote your product by making someone else's product look bad. You sell your stuff on the strength of your product, not the weakness of another, especially when it's not supported. My wife and I had a discussion after I hung up the phone, and we went with the Oxford Gold route. The girl that helped me deal with the bullion company, JM Bullion, was very helpful, informative, and pleasant to deal with. Right now though, everything's pending. The bullion is still on order and it has not made it to the depository yet.

    The representative of Oxford was someone I wanted to do business with. I made an initial call to explain what I was looking for. He offered to send out some information and I agreed. Once I got the information, I called him back and told him I wanted to proceed further. We talked about the different types of silver and different investments in silver. I had done my homework on it but I was glad to see he was up on it. I already had all the answers but wanted to see if he had them and he did. He was so calm and worked at my speed. It made it a real pleasure.

    The price wasn't outstanding, but it wasn't bad so I went ahead. Oxford followed through with the sale like they said they would. I'm diversifying into metal, and knowing that I've got someone who is reputable that can help me continue with that is strong for my portfolio. It was my first time getting into precious metals. I needed to go with somebody that is a big player in the market, is well-known and has good reviews. I wanna get what I'm paying for that's why I went with Oxford. I'm a customer for life.

    I went to Oxford Gold and they were very professional, swift and efficient. They were very thorough about how things worked. I was looking at situations, like do I want a depository that is segregated or non-segregated, and they did a good job of explaining what that was. I've been told other things by other companies. “Hey, if it's non-segregated, your gold and silver is just kind of thrown about in one big room.” I said, “What?” Oxford Gold said, “No, it's not thrown about. You'll have one big room, and then every specific client has a drawer or a metal box.”

    I had a great experience with the girl I talked to, and we got everything done in short order, methodical and professional. I'm not looking for people to give me a sales pitch when it comes to precious metals. I want them to speak like a banker. Some of the people I talked to said, “Oh, okay. I'll try to reach you end of the week. We've only got so many people.” “Okay. Whatever.” She wasn't like that. She was very good with following up, and to my understanding, she'd been doing this for some time, which was verified by her level of efficiency in fact sharing and follow through. I particularly liked her. She went into the pertinent details that I needed, but not a bunch of other stuff. She shared information with me that saves me money.

    Given the nature of what is going on in this country, which now, I trust no bank and nobody in the financial system altogether. I asked the girl I talked to, “What if there is a time that comes I just wanna go get my own precious metals and put them in a safe in my house?” She said, “You can do that any time you want to. But unlike other companies, we don't charge you for that.” The first company that I used to put my money in was gonna charge me to take physical possession of my precious metals, whereas Oxford Gold doesn't. I can just come and get my precious metals or have them shipped to me any time I want to, and there's no penalty for that. That was very appealing to me. I would like to have an option.

    I give Oxford Gold 5 stars, and I don't toss those stars around lightly. I just finished writing a book on business culture, and I have completely slammed a lot of businesses. A lot of people just went south during COVID, but those people who are still standing and have great cultures, service and communication, I weigh heavily. I have friends that use other companies, and I told them they should use Oxford Gold because this space, particularly in the last few years, has gotten a little crazy. No one trusts the banks and everybody's thinking, “Okay, I need to buy precious metals.” A lot of people have sprung up, representatives who just don't know what they're talking about, and I think, “Okay. I don't feel like handing over a bunch of money to somebody who sounds like they're a trainee.” I've been doing this for a long time.

    Jared was very informative. He told me exactly what it was, what we needed to do, where I wanted to go with this, and the best pricing to get. The funny part about it was he gave me the pricing and he told me, "Go ahead, look it up, you know, the other places," and I did. They were very, very competitive, and they did an excellent job. I got the packet FedExed the next day. So it was pretty quick. I opened it and then I called him and he went on the phone and we went through the whole packet. He showed me how to do everything and what the value of it was, and the historical value of gold, whether we were gonna buy eagles or half eagles. He said, "Well, you know, Joe, that's your decision. But my suggestion to you is to buy, you know, the half eagles. They're at a good price," which they were at the time when I started, and I got them at a really good price. Now, they're skyrocketing.

    Jared also calls me and says, "Hey, you know, have you looked at the price? See how gold is moving." He explains to me what's happening, the spot gold, and this is unsolicited. I highly value that. He keeps me in the loop. He has thousands of accounts but it's amazing that he knows and calls me by name. Also, he's gonna help me set up a direct deposit into a monthly thing. I'm really, really, really pleased with him.

    Oxford Gold Group was probably the first company that I talked to that made me feel like they knew what they were doing and I wasn't getting so much of a sales pitch other than just some basic information, which is what I was looking for. I got a self-directed IRA and the rep provided some information in an email upfront, and then we went through the email and discussed the items that were listed in it. I went back to them another day and got some more questions answered that I had questions about. Then we arranged to make an appointment and do their application for the IRA.

    The process was easy. It was just a phone call that took 20 minutes and we followed up with another phone call a few days later to my current 401(k) provider. Then we initiated a rollover into the IRA and it all seemed to go smoothly. Everything is what I was looking for. The information was forthcoming and there wasn't any pressure being applied. I was able to take my time so, I appreciated that.

    I would recommend Oxford Gold Group. They were very receptive. I got calls back immediately. They assisted with getting the funds transferred. It was a good experience. The fact that I have some gold makes me feel more secure. Our rep, Pierre, put our minds at ease. But although he was knowledgeable, I'm not sure that I understand the cost of each coin in relation to the cost of a bar.

    Oxford Gold Group was responsive. They called me back. I got what I wanted which were gold and silver. I've bought from them three times and no complaints. The second time I called, I talked to the president and he happened to have some gold in his office. He sent me those. That was quick. Then I bought some silver and that took two weeks. They managed my expectations saying it could be that long, but I ended up getting them quicker than that. However, the first person I worked with quit. When I wanted to buy my second round of metals, I sent her a text. I never heard back from her. It'd be nice if somebody got back to me. Other than that, I'm pleased.

    Everything went beautiful with Oxford Gold Group. Communications were mostly done on the phone and they have different departments that are experts in their field -- the sales, the transfer shipping. I talked to three different departments and every one of them were equally outstanding.

    They were very, very helpful. Larry called me numerous times and when I called him, he was always available. So I felt pretty confident with the deal. I made a small order just to feel them out. Right now, I'm 90% happy and I'll be 100% happy when I get the bullion. They're in California and I'm in Virginia. The correspondence was through FedEx. I really, really like the way that worked.
