    There 09' ASE are $4.29 over spot instead of $3.99??? I am very surprised at this! I figured premiums would of decreased as silver spot risen

    $3.49 over spot for phils an maples are looking mighty good now!

    Because nobody's buying right now, and they have to make their money somehow.

    I am buying. :)

    Wouldn't that be a reason to lower the price? Guess it depends on what they paid though.

    Maybe they are trying to slow the depletion of their supply by raising the price for awhile.

    Because people are buying they figure they can really stick it to you.

    I supect the reason they went up in their price is because ASE are hot items right now with the way the enonomy is going. People are buying no matter the price. Spot closed at 13.18. That makes the ASE 17.14. One ad I looked at sells 2009 ASE for 17.90, so APMEX is slightly cheaper.

    Looks good at this point but what about shipping charges?

    Taxes and shipping are included of course, I was pointing out that AMPEX was not necessarily higher than others. Of course if you can pick them up from a local dealer you can save shipping.
