"ID verification: Not stated" only means the dealer's own pages don't state a policy. Dealers and payment processors can still ask for ID. Click a column header to sort.

How to read the discount: most US dealers price three ways: card (highest), crypto (about 2-3% lower), and bank wire/check (about 4% lower). So paying in crypto usually beats a card but costs roughly 1% more than a bank wire. See the methodology. Dealer-by-dealer figures: Is it cheaper to buy gold with Bitcoin?
