Spot price vs what you actually pay
The most common confusion for new buyers: spot is a benchmark, not your checkout price.
What spot means
Spot is a global benchmark for raw metal value, usually quoted in USD. It is not a retail delivered price for a specific coin or bar in Canada.
What your final price includes
Your buy price includes spot value plus fabrication, minting, distribution, and dealer spread. MapleBull helps separate these pieces by showing dealer prices and premium metrics side by side.
How to use MapleBull for this
Use product detail pages to compare dealer-level pricing and premium over spot on like-for-like products before deciding what is fair.
