I've seen BTC vending machines around the coffee shops, a liquor store, a convenience store and a Chinese grocery store. I'd love to see at least ONE gold vending machine but so far no luck. I expect a much higher premium for the added convenience. But what I am seeing a regular appearance of a gold buying company disguised as a "Collectables show". I can almost hear that sucking sound as more and more people around here are selling their gold and silver just to pay the bills.
