Spot of what? Looks more like you're asking about gold troy oz here. 10% is about as high as I pay for any PM.
Yeah, I think that can be assumed..LOL , it does depend on what your buying different PM,S having different prices based on possible performance.
You know what they say about ASSumeing. 25 to 50 CENTS? 50 to 75 DOLLARS? poll should be what percentage of spot would you pay? I've paid 2x spot for some cool piece, just because I wanted it. I've been outbid 3x/4x over spot for something that someone wanted.
...except that his last post before starting this thread was talking about premiums on platinum eagles (again, though, not specifying whether they were 1oz, 1/10oz, or something else).
Your acceptable premium, you can put that in a percentage if you like, on coins or bullion you personally collect or invest in, everybody has there favorite
Take a look at palladium the premiums are just stupid, with that said probably going to pick one up soon...LOL
Example... These overpriced 5 gram silver bars. I like them, but dang $3 a gram for the cool factor? That's a bit rich even using someone else's money.
I bought some gold in January ($1749 spot) right at melt. Austrian Ducats and Swiss 20 Francs. I love buying fractional gold at spot. Filled a whole plastic nickel tube.
Will the Silver go below 20.00 soon? It seems to be dipping downward here recently, buy the dips or wait to see where it bottoms out at? Probably the later one for me unless there is a bargain or something I need or want.
At this point I'll be more surprised if it doesn't go under $20. Things aren't done getting worse just yet. I bought some "dips" on the way down from the 2011 peak. Problem is, you need hindsight to know whether it's a "dip" or a long, monotonous downward slope. And by the same token, you can't tell when it's "bottomed out" until it's come back up.
