Bullion Direct Files for Bankruptcy No Metal
Bad News: Stored Metal Nonexistent

Two documents were filed today (Declaration of Dan Bensimon and Joint Stipulation Regarding Contents of Vault). There is a lot of information in these documents.

Most importantly, they show an inventory of the IDS vault that I calculate as having a value of roughly $633,000, compared to the estimated $20M+ of metal that Bullion Direct stored for customers

So true. They were taking people's money and making accounting entries for the metal without purchasing any of it.

Regulators are asleep at the wheel. They will probably jump on this one though and spin it like all dealers are fraudsters. It looks like some of them are, but not all of them. The ones that need to be investigated are the big bullion banks like COMEX

I never bought any bitcoins although I first heard about them when they were trading around $15/btc

I also got some free litecoins from a vendor but never opened them up, got them somewhere on my hard drive in a zipped file I think.

If people decide to start taking delivery of their silver it could bring to light the fraud in the markets and send the price of silver as well as gold up.

Well gosh fellers...

20,000,000 minus 660,000 is only 19,334,000 that's like about 2 percent reserves?

Compared to the Jew-Stream Frauderal Reserve they are flush?

They don't have enough metal, or they were practicing fractional reserve selling (if that is the correct term).

As I said in the OP

I calculate as having a value of roughly $633,000, compared to the estimated $20M+ of metal that Bullion Direct stored for customers

That is about 3% of their declared metal in warehousing for customers. That could be the same for big warehouses like COMEX.

bullion/bouillon
[link to public.wsu.edu (secure)]
Gold bricks are bullion. Boil down meat stock to get bouillon. It's an expensive mistake to confuse bouillon with bullion in a recipe.

Bought the wrong thing - and many have this paper in their IRA's-banksters say "too bad so sad"

Yah exactly. I think Paul Craig Roberts had an article out last week that claimed the ratio of paper silver traded to physical in warehousing was around 1%.

It IS illegal but they do it any way. Fractional Reserve. They have not had the physical to backup paper gold and silver for years. If you own paper gold or silver,you own just that, a piece of paper, and someone else holds the gold and silver. FOOLS!
