Buying Gold/Silver with a CC to get a Bonus

Hi,

Does anyone know any good, reputable dealer online dealer of gold or silver that will accept credit card.

I have two bonuses requiring $500 spend and if I can buy $1k of gold or silver it will save me 25 percent ($250).

Both charge fees for using credit cards and we need to be careful in discussing this topic as we are nearing the prohibited MS talk.

If you need help meeting a CC spend bonus try a service like Plastiq which lets you pay for things with a CC that you nornally can't use a credit card to pay for, like a mortgage payment or rent. Buying gold.silver will usually end up losing you $$$ on fees, CC surcharges & markups. I'm not sure what "MS talk" is, but when a Mod warns against something it's for a good reason.

"MS" Manufactured Spend" The act of spending on things that have cash value just to make your spend requirements for the sign-on bonus. Highly frowned upon by all CC companies and you run the risk of having your account close for such activity.
