Wholesale Silver in Canada — Bulk Bars and Coins for the Trade
Silver is the volume metal of the Canadian trade: heavy, fast-moving and premium-sensitive. Gold Stock Corp's wholesale silver desk supplies dealers, jewellers and stacker-focused retailers from our Mississauga head-office store (1323 Matheson Blvd E), our Malton store (7086 Airport Rd #3) and our Vancouver store (736 Granville St #510) and by insured delivery across Canada, priced from the live Canadian-dollar spot price in the weights that actually turn over — kilo bars, 100 ounce bars, 10 ounce bars and Maple Leaf tubes and boxes.
The weights the trade moves
Retail silver demand concentrates in a few formats: one-ounce Maple Leafs by the tube and monster box for walk-in buyers, 10 ounce bars for stackers who want a lower premium per ounce, and kilo and 100 ounce bars for buyers converting lump sums. The wholesale desk stocks that working set deliberately, rather than a long tail of novelty product that sits. Availability is confirmed at order time against live inventory, and recurring trade buyers can reserve against incoming stock.
Premiums are where wholesale silver is won or lost. Our trade pricing is built from live spot plus a volume-tiered premium, quoted in full before you commit, so your retail margin maths is done on a real number rather than an estimate that moves at invoice time.
Tax, freight and the real landed cost
Two costs surprise new silver dealers. First, tax: Silver is generally subject to GST/HST in Canada, unlike qualifying investment gold, and the applicable tax is shown on your invoice before you pay. Second, freight: silver is heavy for its value, so insured shipping on bulk silver is a real line item. Our desk quotes delivery into the total wherever possible and packs larger orders in split, fully insured parcels, so the landed cost per ounce you plan on is the one you get.
For GTA trade buyers, pickup at Mississauga or Malton removes the freight line entirely; Vancouver serves the west. Out-of-province dealers get the same desk and the same pricing discipline, with freight quoted up front.
Trade buyback and scrap flow
Dealers take in silver constantly over their own counters — coins, bars, sterling and scrap. The wholesale relationship includes a standing buyback route for that flow: weighed, tested and reported item by item, priced from live spot on the day, so the metal you buy in does not become dead capital on your shelf. That two-way flow is what makes a wholesale desk useful through a full price cycle, not just on the way up.
Frequently asked questions
Can jewellers buy silver grain and working stock through the desk?
The desk's core is investment silver — bars, coins and rounds. For working material, contact the store with what you need and the desk will confirm what it can supply.
How is bulk silver shipped?
In split, discreet, fully insured and tracked parcels sized for the weight, with the freight cost quoted before you commit.
Is GST/HST charged on wholesale silver?
Generally yes — silver does not qualify for the precious-metals GST/HST exemption, and the tax is shown on your trade invoice.
Do you buy back trade silver?
Yes — bars, coins, sterling and scrap, weighed and tested with an itemised report, priced from live spot.
