I have purchased and sold metals many times at this business. They are extremely fair in their pricing and make buying and selling about as easy as it gets. Forget pawn shops and local coin stores. Go to the best. You can use the common mail couriers to conduct business or do like I do and go in person to meet them face to face. You won't be disappointed. read more

I have bullion stored at Strata Trust and the Texas Precious Metals Depository (TPMD), and I was told that I can visit those deposits at any time if I apply for a visit. Applications to visit are reviewed by the custodian, Strata Trust. The application requires the make, model, color and license plate of the vehicle you use to visit their facility. Using my personal vehicle would require driving 1500 miles over 3 days each way. Instead, I opted to fly to Texas, rent a vehicle, provide the necessary information, wait for 2 days in a Texas hotel for the application to be approved before visiting. I discussed this plan and schedule extensively with Strata Trust before buying airline tickets and lodging in Texas. I was in contact with both Strata and TPMD before traveling to Texas, and after I arrived in Texas on Tuesday, I gave Strata my vehicle details with the intent of visiting the depository on Friday, but, as of Friday, I had not received approval from Strata or TPMD as of 10 AM. I did talk with Strata at 11 AM, and they said they received my vehicle info and would get the approved application to TPMD immediately and that I could expect a call from them shortly. By 1 PM I had not received a call from TPMD, so I called them. They told me in no uncertain terms that I was not allowed to visit. They said that with a Strata application in hand they would then have to "schedule" a visit well beyond my scheduled Saturday departure. I have a brother who is a skeptic about bullion. He asks, "Do you really know you have it?" At this point, I am becoming suspicious. I would have made different decisions had I known I could not visit. Their vehicle policy alone creates a massive barrier for everyone visiting. They (or a local Uber) could simply pick people up at a rendezvous point (ex. a parking lot) and taxi them to the facility. I pose my brother's question to you, "At Strata Trust-TPMD, do you really know you have your bullion?" read more

Their customer service has been improving lately. I really feel you can trust Texas Precious Metals. They offer an online trading guide and a buyer's guide to help customers make informed decisions. I do recommend that you read it. They have some security steps that you have to go through. read more

Selection at Texas precious metals was excellent. I paid a reasonable price above spot for both gold and silver. The service was quick, and accurate. read more

Awesome company to work with!!! Reed has been my go to guy for all my purchases and would highly recommend! I will be a lifetime customer and look forward to the next purchase! read more

Made a request for a purchase on Friday. Got an email Monday saying they needed a copy of my license and check. Sent the info in and never heard back from them, so I called today and was told I need to furnish more info. The check was from my business account and they wanted me to go to my bank and get a letter to send them. per their web sight the order would not be sent until the payment was complete? Asked Kieth just to cancel the order, (Which he done it without charging me the deposit), because there are plenty of places that will take my money. Then I get an e-mail saying they had canceled the order and blocked me from buying from them in the future. And they sent it to my business e-mail. I guess they think they are the only ones with gold? I would not buy from them. read more

Great service. Entire process was clearly explained, easy to follow and went exactly according to plan. Will order from them again.

What is the Ebay store for TEXAS PRECIOUS METAL , got a gift card from kiddos that need to be used , please help ? Brook read more

TPM's eBay store occasionally offers some really hot deals just over spot price, but (in my experience) generally has bullion priced at too much over spot for my tastes. (I'm a close point buyer -- I pay as close to spot as I can, bull market or bear.) The TPM bullion itself has a very high purity, though, and the designs are sharp, crisp, and -- while not downright gorgeous -- attractive enough. Fast shipping, honest pricing, and all around terrific customer service. I understand that Texas Precious Metals has a healthy working relationship with another Texas-based firm (Goldstar Trust) for those who need precious metal IRAs and remote storage. Five stars all around. read more

"We ship orders no later than three (3) business days from receipt of payment". Except when they get busy and then they allow themselves another week (or so) to ship. read more

If you are seeking to store your precious metals in the U.S. Texas Precious Metals Depository is absolutely the "go to firm". Like many silver stackers; I follow Andy Shectman, Peter Schiff, and Mike Maloney. They are all great leaders in the precious metals industry; yet when you want your valuables stored; you want "the best". With Texas Precious Metals there is no middle man. You are dealing with the vault staff directly. In terms of customer service talk to Johanna or Kris in customer service or Tori in shipping. They could not be more helpful. Decades ago Dr. Ken Blanchard wrote a book called "Raving Fans'. The thesis is when service is just so above and beyond what you expect you become a "Raving Fan" of that business. I am a Raving Fan of Texas Precious Metals Depository; check them out and you will be a raving fan also. read more

Stay away from this company, they are NOT to be trusted ! They got a hold of my credit card and then made unauthorized charges and I didn't receive any product from them. The customer is not right at this place and I would not recommend them. Typical internet scam, preying on consumers who don't check their statements. They Have Been Reported ! read more

Texas Precious Metals is first class in my book. Like many, I am leery of on line sellers so I do my due diligence. TMP passed this test (which is important) but more importantly they passed the performance test as well. My first transaction was for me a large purchase of around $17,000. It could not have gone smoother or with less worries. The product was flawless and the shipping was fast (very unlike my first purchase from a larger, more nationally know seller) On my second purchase, I used their limit order option. It too worked flawlessly and I got my purchase for over 3% less due to a sharp overnight drop in prices which immediately corrected upon market open. Not bad... while I was sleeping....TPM was watching the market for me and executing my trade. In summary... highly recommended. Good prices and their performance with me and their record with others makes them top in my book for future use as well. Just my $.02 worth. read more

TPM wanted ($500.00) $20 below spot for each bar trade-in 25 ttl 1 oz Perth bars for 25 1oz Buffalos. I call that double dippin! TPM have higher prices than most PM dealers. Shop around there are plenty of PM dealers. REPLY: I purchased the Bars from you! All bars but one where in Perth Security plastic containers. I spent over $130K w/ TPM so go spin your disingenuous response on someone else! I never asked TPM to do anything for "Free" I wanted to be treated Fairly. You lost a sale because you where unreasonable about your margin. A sale you will never makeup and approximately a two thousand dollar commission (25 bars resold & premium on 34 MS62) that went to your competition. You then rationalize your behavior by claiming TPM is a high-end Swiss type Gold boutique in Shiner Texas. TPM is just a reseller you do not get bonus points NOT acting like a pawn shop, shipping on-time or being polite. You get kudos not fleecing customers. I saved about $2500. Not doing business with you. GREEDY & UNFAIR read more

Texas Precious Metals is the worst bullion dealer that I have ever bought silver from! I ordered 10 silver coins from them that came scratched, stained and dirty. Customer service ignored my original call and left me hanging for two months. Texas Precious Metals is also listed on the "Rip Off Report", dated 9/01/2015. read more

Texas Precious Metals is the best and most innovative metals dealer in the USA, as far as I am concerned. They provided the metal for my gold IRA, which is managed by Goldstar Trust Co., Canyon, TX. The metal is stored out-of-state. I have written an extensive review about Goldstar. It's a good working relationship, TPM and Goldstar. read more

Excellent precious metals broker. They offer a detailed website with a friendly user interface, straightforward and fair pricing, fast, secure shipping, prompt service and a flawless payment process. I have now ordered a few items through TPM and have not been disappointed. read more

I would not purchase metals from any other company! This is truly as good and honorable as it gets.

I just ordered American Silver Eagles from TPM and I'm very pleased. I always prefer Texas businesses but they have some of the fairest prices out there anyway, so it's a win-win. The selection might not be as expansive as the bigger sites but they have everything a true precious metals investor could want IMO. In fact I appreciate the straightforward selection without a bunch of odd bobbles. I will purchase from them again. read more

I have bought a bunch from these guys when things were rocking and rolling in the oil patch and I was not disappointed. My brother and three sisters bought as well when they saw how easy it was. It's as easy as ordering something from Amazon dot com. My first metals purchase was from a dealer in Austin that stiffed me with a commission after we had made the deal. It was only 60 oz of silver but it left a bad impression. Another major dealer just basically flat out told me that after placing an order with them I would get my silver when ever the market dictated because of supply and demand issues... Yeah Right. I then looked at Texas Precious Metals and have been doing business with them ever since. read more

I did my due diligence for weeks. I followed the market spot prices and Kitco before making my first 1 ounce gold purchase. I found another site with slightly lower prices and decent reviews. However, they had some issues via reviews on delivery time. Tex Metals had great reviews including UPS overnight delivery. So I decided to go with them as this was a gift and I wanted it sooner than later. My bank gives me free wires so I used that form of payment. I received an email at purchase, when they received the wire and when shipping took place. They shipped on Weds I got it Thursday morning. It was well packaged and required a signature. The Perth bar was vacuumed wrapped and looks good. I would do business with them again. Oh and the customer service was helpful every time I contacted them. Minimum orders are 1K and this includes free overnight insured shipping. Using a bank wire (fastest) or personal check by mail are the best way to save some dough (4%). read more

I wanted to try out these guys, since they offer free shipping on PM's with no limit on how much you purchase. You can buy a single round or coin for 20 bucks and it's still free shipping. Pretty cool I thought. I set up my account and tried buy a Silver Eagle with an E-check, since that's the cheapest method. The order seemed to go through. Later, I got an email and they asked me to send a picture of my drivers license and also a picture of me holding my drivers license. I wasn't comfortable doing that since every other dealer I go through (SD Bullion, JM Bullion, Apmex, etc.) has never asked for that info with an E-check. So I told them to cancel my order. A day later I attempted to log on to my account to buy with a credit card instead, and they had removed my account entirely. What a jerk move! I will never buy from these guys, ever. read more

I have always had excellent dealings with this company. They're honest, friendly, thorough and quick in their service. In some cases I place my order and got my merchandise the same day. For a small town we are fortunate to have this type of business and it's a great location being located in south central Texas. read more

Texas Precious Metals is great company to do business with. They have highly competitive prices and the service is highly responsive and professional. They deliver on time and care for their customers. read more

I don't know what happened with the person who is complaining, but my experience with this company was excellent. They only hold a credit card until payment is received, as they did with my transactions. They are friendly, professional, and sensitive to customer satisfaction. I like the fact you can pay through your bank's billpay if you order more than the personal check maximum they allow. This allows you to avoid costly wiring charges. The only thing that went wrong was that the UPS driver left my packaged coins on my doorstep without the necessary signature. This wasn't Texas Precious Metals fault, but they did contact their UPS account representative to voice a complaint. I will continue to order from them. read more

Being the first time I have ever bought silver, the folks at Texas Precious Metals made the experience easy and worry free. I called before I placed the order to ask some questions which they answered thoroughly. They were very polite and accommodating. Their prices are very reasonable and they shipped my order FAST; I received my silver just over a week later. I would highly recommend this company, so much so that I just placed another order. read more

My first transaction was handled exactly as represented. I wired a large 6 figure sum, and shortly thereafter my instructions for safeguarding and delivery were following to the letter by the experts at Texas Precious Metals. I received timely the precious metal I ordered. All one can ask for is accurate representation of the company's capabilities, adherence to the instructions the buyer gives, and accurate, timely execution (i.e. delivery of what is ordered on time in good condition). Texas Precious Metals qualifies on all counts. Based upon their record to date, I would be comfortable wiring them 7 figures for an order. read more

Tarek Saab lives up to the great articles highlighting his dedication to his customers and the values of his business. When investing in precious metals , Gold Investing , Silver investing, etc.. Look to Texas Precious Metals for trustworthy, reputable , and honest transactions. I had a simple problem with an order that was out of both mine and Texas Precious Metals hands but Tarek stepped in and took responsibility to go far beyond and make things right!! This is what Jim Collins describes as "Level 5" leadership in the best selling business leadership book Good To Great. I was pleased to see the COO step in, talk to me directly as a customer, take responsibility and get my minor problem handled smoothly and gracefully. I was impressed and read up on Tarek and saw articles highlighting the service and values he believes in and brings with him to Texas Precious Metals. When you look for great products with great prices you often think you have to sacrifice service but not with Texas Precious Metals! Thank you so much to Tarek and Trevor for taking care of me. read more

I ordered some silver eagles late Friday afternoon, paid by bank wire and had them in my hot little hand the following Wednesday. Couldn't ask for better. In a universe of dealers who overpromise and underdeliver, these guys do the opposite. Simply superb. read more

I purchased ~$150K in gold coins and bars on two separate occasions, wiring cash, and had excellent service and delivery within 2 days each time. Seamless and totally professional in my experience. read more

I have bought and sold with Texas Precious Metals. The web site is clear, the service is excellent, fair pricing with a clear and simple process. They have delivered as agreed with no hassle on ever occasion. The goals I have for my company, excellence. read more

I had a great experience with Texas Precious Metals. The buying and shipping process was exactly as advertised on their website. They require a wire transfer unless the order is below $2,000.00. They also put a 5% (of the order total) hold on your credit card until they receive payment. Once payment is received the hold is dropped immediately. My order shipped within three business days and took another three days to arrive. I would highly recommend TPM and will order from them again. read more

These guys are great. I placed an order for both gold and silver. Their communication was excellent throughout the process. They sent my order via next day delivery and it was well packed. I like the fact that they will only sell stuff that they have in stock--i.e., no waiting for weeks for your order to ship. Finally, their prices are competitive. They are an excellent dealer to do business with. read more

I read over the details from this company and others. Texas Precious Metals (TPM), after review, seemed to be the best for me. I made an order, and followed the directions provided. I received my order exactly as described by TPM. I was a little concerned before the first order but they came through exactly as advertised. Since then, I have made other orders. Each order was handled perfectly and professionally. I have spoken with TPM several times and each time they answered with respect and were very helpful. I have the highest respect for them and and this is a company that has earned my deserved trust. I am a big fan of theirs now and appreciate their consistent quality work. They deliver exactly as promised and it remind me when young how businesses were run. All I have to say is thank you, TPM rocks and this company is the best! I will continue to order from TPM. I don't write many reviews but TPM earned this and I hope they read it and share with their employees. read more

I placed an $8K order online this Thursday morning around 10:30 am EST - made it to the bank and had the wire transfer to them by their 1:00 pm CST cut off, hoping that it would ship Friday and arrive Monday. I called them about an hour later to ask if my item would ship out the next day (Friday.) The customer service person was very friendly and helpful. I told her I was hoping for a Monday delivery as I was currently on vacation and would be home / able to sign for the package. She asked if I would be home tomorrow.. I said Umm yes.. She said "well let's see if we can get this out today for you, I'll call down to the vault and see what we can do." An hour later I got the UPS email saying the package had shipped. She also called back to verify this about a half hour later. I received it today (Friday) around 11:30 am. THAT IS SERVICE! 25 HOUR SHIPPING! YMMV but I am VERY happy with this company. The product came packaged very professionally and everything is in order. I'm a customer for life. read more

Some people are just too dumb to know how lucky they are. I don't know why TPM gave John Confrancesco his deposit back, I would not have, a contract is a contract, giving your word should count for something, even in today's world of "I'm the center of the universe" PC idiots. I have ordered from TPM for years, and am very happy with the service. My only complaint is that word of mouth has spread about their prices and service until they are too busy on some days. In the old days I would call and the same guy would always answer within 2-3 rings and take the order. Now there is a receptionist and several sales people. On one super outstanding price crash morning the cost of my total order went up $100 while I waited 4-5 min to talk to a salesman (I guess I'm not the only one that likes a bargain), which was completely my fault, because they have made ordering straight from their web site so simple. Since that day I have only ordered straight from the site. I follow silver and gold prices and when they get down to a good buy price I get on the TPM site and lock in the price immediately. I could not be happier, although I do miss the old days and the personal interaction of the simple one man operation. read more
