Bar, You can also get items at coin stores or coin shows, but have to be very careful due to a lot of fakes out there. It's not enough to have the correct weight, the coin's dimensions (thickness, width) have to be exactly right, and there are now digital scanners that are used to verify the metal itself. Dealers will usually have this equipment, but they themselves have to be trustworthy, and that isn't always the case.

In addition to fake gold coins and bars, fake silver bars are fairly common, and fake US silver Eagle coins. It's a jungle out there. It isn't impossible to get a fake from Apmex, but would be extremely unlikely, and would not be intentional.
You would get a full refund, and also if something arrived scratched or otherwise damaged, a refund.
