This question seems to be asked quite a bit. I first heard of it, and Bullion Brother's name, through the Wall Street Silver and Silverbugs subreddits. I looked at the main Bullion Brother website and it appeared to be legitimate. Next, I decided to check out the "Inflation Mitigation Lounge," Bullion Brother's buyer's group on Telegram, to see what it was all about. The deals in the Inflation Mitigation Lounge were good, but not "too good to be true," which was a good sign, as that's Red Flag #1 when looking out for scams.
The Inflation Mitigation Lounge
The biggest appeal of this buyer's group is you can build a box of purchases in a 30 day period and then ship all at once for a flat shipping fee. You can also put purchases on layaway for 25% down (plus a small processing fee), so long as you pay it off within 30 days.
I hung out in the background for a couple weeks, just observing how things ran and were handled. A group of Admins helps with keeping the chat from getting off-topic, and keeps the language G-PG for any kids who may be watching with their parents. People posted pictures of the orders they received, along with the Bullion Brother stickers that were included for free. Usually with scammers, you won't see very much interaction between the seller and buyers, but the interactions were regular, and there was a rapport within this community of buyers in their conversations.
My First Order
I decided to place an order and use a credit card, just so I had buyer's protection on the slim chance I was wrong. When my order arrived, I was pleased to find everything in order and everything was legitimate. Here's a picture of my very first invoice from them.
I continued making purchases through the Inflation Mitigation Lounge, and all the while Bullion Brother continued to improve his processes and upgrade the website.
While Bullion Brother tests all incoming products with a Sigma Metalytics, I decided to buy a Sigma from him. It's a great tool to help avoid silver and gold fakes, as some are very convcining to the naked eye. And of course he had the Sigma priced cheaper than anywhere else online.
Best of Both Worlds
With the latest round of upgrades made to the website, you can now combine your IML and website purchases into the same box, and all invoicing is handled through the website. Special deals and promotions still post first in the IML and sometimes sell out before they make it to the website, so it's best to be registered on the website and also join the Inflation Mitigation Lounge on Telegram. This lets you buy online like any other online bullion dealer, but also have the option to build a box and put purchases on layaway.
Final Thoughts
Bullionbrother.com and the Inflation Mitigation Lounge are absolutely legitimate. The pricing is transparent and usually better than you'll find online and in a local coin store. Building a box over 30 days and being able to put items on layaway is a feature yet to be offered anyone else. Lastly, the community of stackers you'll meet in the Inflation Mitigation Lounge are some of the nicest, most helpful people you could hope to meet. It's a one-of-a-kind experience you don't want to miss.You can check out their website, Instagram and join the Inflation Mitigation Lounge by clicking here: https://linktr.ee/BullionBrother
