germans flock to gold bars vending machine, page-9

BugGold, I don't see the risks of being robbed are any higher than for people withdrawing paper bugs money from an ATM.

It's not as if someone is purchasing a 10 oz bar of gold from the ATM, waving it to the watching crowd and then walking off alone into a dark alley.

Mind you if someone did get mugged for the 5g of gold they withdrew from the Gold ATM at least they can have the consolation thought that their mugger is an intelligent mugger who knows what real money is, especially if the mugger throws their euro notes back at them!!
