Our latest Gold investment site for review is for GoldForSimpletons.com - errrmm.. I meant GoldMadeSimple.com
Gold Made Simple is a relatively new player to the online Gold Investment market and offers the usual means to acquire physical Gold.
You can invest as much as a £1 Million + or make a smaller investment of under £30,000 in Gold Bullion and Coins. They currently offer a 1kg Gold Bar for £30,502 – a bargain!
If you prefer to start with something a little smaller then how about a 1 oz Australian Kangaroo Gold coin? Initially introduced in 1987 they were originally called Gold Nuggets because eon the reverse side of the coin they showed the biggest Gold Nugget ever found which was 2,284 oz (known as the ‘Welcome Stranger Nugget’).
The site offers translation into many languages, gold price charts, market analysis and the good old Gold spot price indicator. It also offers to buy back your gold and free storage.
This UK based companies site has VeriSign Trusted SSL Certificates for secure ordering and the credibility of LBMA supplied by members of the London Bullion Market Association.
Again like with BullionVault the site design and usability is pretty ugly, dreadful and uninspiring but this is mostly irrelevant to the end goal of the user.
Nevertheless Gold Made Simple seems a good solid choice and definitely worth considering when making your purchase of physical Gold.

looking a number of sites - I can’t see any cheaper than http://www.goldforsimpletons.com for 1 kilo gold bars - do you know if anyone is cheaper? Also does anyone else offer free storage, with the option of delivery on demand?
I’ve been using these guys for about a year now… From actually using them I can confirm the price has always been the best and that they’ve shipped the gold out quickly and like their website says the whole process was pretty simple…
Glad you picked up on the 1kg price they offer - that appears to be the best price out there from looking around the other sites… now if only I could find £30k!
I love the design… its like those swiss style posters you see in arty magazines. The live gold price indicator top right is inspired!
It’s just a shame the seo company that work for goldmadesimple are so clueless constantly trying every dirty little seo trick with spammy comments and links etc - it will be wonderous to see the look on their faces when they get a call telling them their services are no longer required because they’re so forking useless!
