To shop on Blanchard's web site you need to click on either "Gold Bullion" or "Silver Bullion" on the left side of the page. For gold, Blanchard sells American Eagles (available in 1 oz), American Buffalo (available in 1 oz), South African Kruggerands (available in 1 oz), Canadian Maple Leafs (available in 1 oz), and British Sovereigns (available in 1/4 oz).
At the time of our review, prices for all of Blanchard’s gold coins were higher than Gainesville Coins. Blanchard’s prices were $31.10 higher for a 1 oz American Eagle, $42.30 higher for a 1 oz Canadian Maple Leaf, and $39.11 higher for a 1 oz South African Kruggerand. Blanchard’s prices for gold decline slightly when ordering in quantity, but were still higher than Gainesville Coins.
Blanchard recently added gold bullion bars for sale on their web site, which at the time of our review update cost $25.14 more than Gainesville Coins.
For silver, Blanchard only offers 1 oz American Eagles. At the time of our review update, they were selling for $0.40 above what Lear Capital was selling them for.
Blanchard does not accept credit cards as payment for bullion orders. After you place an order online, a Blanchard Account Executive will contact you to confirm and complete your bullion order and arrange a payment method.
We experienced a web site outage with Blanchard on December 8th. We also experienced prices for their products rising once you reach the shopping cart to complete an order.
Our order from Blanchard arrived in 24 days (15 business days).
After our original review of Blanchard we received several major complaints from NIA members about the company, reporting terrible customer service and shipping experiences.
