It's very safe to buy online, and they can't confiscate what they don't know you have. Keep sales/purchases under 10k at a time is what I heard.
Edit: local coin shops exist and often have good deals but in some states like NJ there is sales tax. There are some websites that don't add it, but in most states there is no sales tax.
Jmbullion, moneymetals, apex (often a little pricier) and many more sites are legit.
Scottsdale mint has beautiful pieces, golden state mint usually has very good prices but you have to mail an actual check to get the best prices with them.
