If you have funds in the fiat currency system, pull it out, as much as you can afford to, and buy silver with it. Silver is extremely low at this time. Gold and silver have been real money for millenia. If and when the fiat currency system collapses, silver and gold will retain their value. Silver, in particular, is cheap enough to be used on a day to day level. Gold is just too precious (expensive).
Pawn shops are not the best as far as I have seen, very big markups.
Try to find a local coin shop or bullion shop. Pay in cash (mine only takes cash), and it won't be traced by the gov. If you shop online, it will be traceable.
Online has a much better selection and is very convenient. I have always had great service with JM Bullion, but many of the big reputable sites are fine. I had a bad experience with Apmex, but many here seem to like them.
If you shop online, check the different sites for their "deals" or sales. You can probably find a better price if you shop around. Also, I would suggest not using a credit card, they charge you a higher price if you do. Bank wires and bank transfers are "free", but your bank might charge a fee to do it.
My local coin shop has the best prices, but he only has what he has. A few pieces of gold and a few tubes of silver eagles (last time I was in there). But, you buy it there and leave with it, without the gov or banks knowing that you bought it.
Should check out https://www.goldenstatemint.com/deals/, they don't charge sales tax which makes quite a difference at checkout. Especially on larger orders...
I've bought the majority of my silver at Golden State Mint. Great company, good service, and the number one thing I like about them? They don't charge sales tax which makes a HUGE difference at checkout, especially on larger orders!
Step 1. Search online for "Buy Bullion". Look for a place that sells, ideally in your city or locality. If not, you can get it shipped, but if it's in your city, you should be able to pick it up yourself, saving shipping expenses. Look at 3+ places that sell, compare prices. See how they vary.
Step 2. Search on Ytub for "buying silver and gold" and check out some of the videos that pop up. Lots of folks talking about this, sharing their knowhow and experience.
Step 3. Look for "silver stacking" on yutub, and learn on that. Key points you need to learn are: "Spot Price", "Premium", "Storage" etc.
Now is an amazing time to buy silver, as its way, way down (being suppressed by the powers that wanna be, including the bankers). I bought a bunch last year in Feb, when it was up at around USD 26. Now, its down at USD 19. I'm not worried. I bought for the long-term insurance against fiat collapse.
