This is a really great thread and I love following it, but it took me a bit of time to figure out that this is only APMEX inventory (I think I have that right?). You might consider putting an explanation on the top of each posting so newbies like me (and casual surfers) understand where the data is coming from?

Correct, the data I'm reporting is only from Apmex. This is explained in the first post of the original thread (which is linked in the first post of this thread).

Of course, anyone is welcome to post news/reports about other vendors if they can find the info. Tulving doesn't list live inventory, but sometimes you can glean info from products that are sold out or changes to their premiums (for example).

The following report details changes from 5/24 @ ~9am to 5/28 @ ~8am:

Apmex restocked a bit and sales volume was low as might be expected over a holiday weekend.

  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 213 to 214. Perth (+5), JM "poured" (-5), Credit Suisse (+1)

  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 214 to 221. Perth (-3), Apmex (+15), JM "poured" (-3), Pamp (-2)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 5689 to 5613. Apmex (-3), Pamp (-17), Pamp YoTD (-2), Credit Suisse (-9), Perth (-14), RCM (-30), Sunshine V2 (-1)

It's been 3 days since the last report.

The following report details changes from 5/31 @ ~8am to 6/3 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 221 to 210. Perth (-1), JM "poured" (-2), Pamp (-7), Credit Suisse (-1)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 5613 to 5433. Apmex (-6), Pamp (-46), Pamp YoTD (-9), Credit Suisse (-43), Perth (-22), generic with assay (-1), generic no assay (+12), RCM (-50), Sunshine V2 (-15)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 266 to 265. Apmex (-7), RCM (+45), JM "new" (-34), Englehard secondary market (-3), JM "Canada" (-1), Englehard "poured" (-1)
Apmex changed the styling on their website. It's horrible now. Side to side scrolling is a big no-no in web design.
 
The following report details changes from 6/3 @ ~9am to 6/4 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 210 to 203. Perth (-6), JM "poured" (+5), Pamp (-6)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 5433 to 5346. Apmex (-4), Pamp (-11), Pamp YoTD (-3), Credit Suisse (-10), Perth (-8), generic with assay (+100), RCM (-151)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 265 to 271. RCM (+21), JM "new" (-12), Englehard secondary market (-2), CMI (-1 sold out)
Apmex lowered the premiums on 10 ozt gold. They are now less than or equal to the premiums on 1ozt gold. Perhaps that explains why sales volume on the 10 ozt gold has picked up recently. Sales volume on 1 ozt gold looks pretty anemic lately.
 
The following report details changes from 6/4 @ ~9am to 6/5 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 203 to 203.
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 5346 to 5182. Pamp (-20), Pamp YoTD (-6), Credit Suisse (-5), Perth (-3), generic with assay (-2), generic no assay (+5), RCM (-123)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 271 to 397. RCM (-18), Apmex (-2), JM "new" (+146)
Apmex lowered the premiums on 1 ozt gold across the board and RCM / JM 100 ozt silver. Seems like retail physical may be cheaper now than it has been over the last month or so. Even so, sales volume is muted.
 
The following report details changes from 6/5 @ ~9am to 6/6 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 203 to 200. JM "poured" (-3)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 5182 to 5496. Apmex (-10), Pamp (+371), Pamp YoTD (-5), Credit Suisse (-9), Perth (-3), RCM (-25), Sunshine V2 (-3)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 397 to 385. RCM (-7), Apmex "struck" (-2), Apmex "IRA" (+2), JM "new" (-6), Englehard "struck" (+1)
Sales volume continues to be weak. I wonder if Apmex's new website design is turning away buyers.
 
Sales volume continues to be weak. I wonder if Apmex's new website design is turning away buyers.

It might well be seasonal. Forward rates have jumped higher since the beginning of June. That's a sign of weak(er) demand, too.
 
Could be sa. Maybe all the retail buyers "shot their wad" already on the April smash down.

The following report details changes from 6/6 @ ~9am to 6/7 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 200 to 192. Pamp (-8)

  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 385 to 355. RCM (-15), Apmex "struck" (+5), generic secondary market (+20), Apmex "IRA" (-1), JM "new" (-38), RCM "old" (-1)
Sales volume appeared to pick up a bit in 10 ozt gold and 100 ozt silver.

Apmex lowered the premium on Pamp 10 ozt gold - lowest I've ever seen on 10 ozt gold bars. They also raised the premium on RCM 100 ozt silver.
 
It's been 3 days since the last report.

It's been 6 days since the last report. I took some time off for the extended holiday weekend.

The following report details changes from 7/3 @ ~10am to 7/9 @ ~8am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 90 to 106. Apmex (-3), Pamp (+13), generic no assay (+2), Credit Suisse (+4)

  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 745 to 1067.

There is no basis for determining sales volume since the last report, but it's clear that Apmex has added inventory across the board. The inventory for 100ozt silver bars is now the highest it's ever been since I've been tracking (since December 2011).
 
The following report details changes from 7/9 @ ~8am to 7/10 @ ~9am:
  • 10 ozt gold bars - from 106 to 103. Apmex (-1), JM "poured" (+8), Pamp (-7), generic no assay (-3)
  • 1 ozt gold bars - from 2439 to 2411. Pamp (-47), Pamp YoTD (+94), Credit Suisse (-34), Perth (-1), Heraeus (-1), generic no assay (-6), RCM (-27), Sunshine V2 (-6)
  • 100 ozt silver bars - from 1067 to 1166. Sunshine V2 (new bars) (+165), Sunshine V2 (first 100 serial #) (-11), RCM (-5), Apmex (-6), generic secondary market (-1 sold out), JM "new" (-49), Englehard "struck" (+3), Englehard secondary market (-1 sold out), Englehard "bull logo" (+2), EPM (+2)
Looks like strong sales volume in 10 ozt gold and 100 ozt silver and normal sales volume in 1 ozt gold.

Apmex added more inventory for the new Sunshine V2 100 ozt silver bars, but now distinguishes the bars with the first 100 serial numbers. First 100 serial numbers = numismatic premium. Others = better premium than the JM, Apmex or RCM bars.
