The options for gold dealers include:
a. coin & small bar dealers not offering storage
b. coin & small bar dealers offering storage
c. big bar exchanges offering storage
a. Coin & Small Bar dealers Not offering Storage
With this option you have to take delivery of the gold and arrange storage yourself, which means that it might not be very easy to store the gold abroad if required.
b. Coin & Small Bar dealers Offering Storage
With this option you do not have to take delivery of the gold and storage can be arranged for you. Some dealers will offer storage abroad and buy the gold back from you if required.
c. Big Bar Exchanges Offering Storage
With this option it is not possible to take delivery of the gold because you have partial ownership of a big bar with other people. However dealing & storage costs are relatively low, small amounts can be bought & sold easily and it is possible to store gold abroad easily.
