Hey, it’s Ben!
In today’s off-market deal, I’m highlighting a precious metals trading business with over 30 years of operating history generating $20M+ in annual revenue and $3.2M in earnings that just came across our radar.
With a tenured COO already in place and a business model built on relationships rather than retail foot traffic, this is one of the more operationally flexible opportunities we’ve seen at this size.
Community Spotlight
Brittany bought an $850K medical weight loss clinic with 100% seller financing after joining Acquisition Ace.
“I took the principles that you taught and kept those in mind. Everyone told me to walk away. Ben helped clarify that this one situation could be fixed. Reading the material is only part of it - doing the exercise and following the principles is what matters.”
She stuck with a deal for 9 months that others said to abandon, and now owns a business poised to become a seven-figure cash flow machine.

The Deal Overview
This is a high-velocity buy/sell operation dealing in gold, silver, and rare coins across retail, wholesale, and collector channels.
The business earns through continuous arbitrage (buying and reselling metals and coins at a spread) supplemented by roughly 12 trade shows annually and a diversified distribution network spanning online marketplaces and strategic partnerships.
The current owner remains involved in high-value transactions and strategic relationships, but a long-standing COO and experienced sales and sourcing team handle broader operations.
This deal came through direct outreach in the alternative assets community and is not publicly listed.
The Numbers
Revenue: $20M+ annually
Earnings: ~$3.2M annually
Team: Lean, tenured staff including COO, sales, and sourcing personnel
Distribution: Online marketplaces, trade shows, wholesale and collector networks
Model: Relationship and digital-driven (no retail foot traffic dependency)

Why this Deal Stands Out
Thirty-plus years of operating history in a trust-driven industry is extraordinarily difficult to replicate.
The seller relationships, sourcing networks, and reputation built over three decades transfer with the business, and that’s where the real value sits.
The asset-light, relationship-driven model also means a new owner isn’t tied to a physical retail location.
The business can be operated with significant geographic flexibility through its existing digital and partner channels.
For the right buyer, there’s also meaningful upside in scaling trade show activity, expanding online marketplace presence, and deepening wholesale relationships that are already established but underdeveloped.
