I don’t have any reason to feel that way except my sizable gut just don’t feel right. If this guy found a stash of silver in an abandoned storage room, why is he selling it to me a bag at a time over the course of a week?
The cost of doing it all at once. If you bought $100 at 10X that's $1000 and it's difficult for a lot of people to shell out all at once.
That is an understandable concern but as Nut said I hope your son has good, honest friends. I am sure you raised him right to not be involved with people otherwise. Perhaps he regularly goes through multiple storage lockers.
Question? Can you now look at what he has before you give him a price? I was passing through a place on vacation, stopped at a G&S store to see what was new. They were closed and some lady pulled up in the parking lot as I was leaving. She was selling I was looking to buy... She had a quart sized zip lock bag with what looked like $5 face in silver and I asked her how much she was looking to get for it? She said make offer...so $5 face (hmmm) $40? She said REALLY, I'll take that. She even asked if I had a card if she came across more. I said nope I was just passing through.
Your over thinking it, he should raise the price to 12 x face, account free delivery, no mail required, no 3% paypal fees great deal.. storage locker receipt.. TRUST.. sometimes its difficult with loved ones.... jus kiddin Randy
