Be also aware that silver us not THAT much better than copper or other cheaper materials for solar. As technology advances, at some point, either...
I understand timeframes affect us all differently. Completely based on prior cycles, I would say cheaper premiums at a minimum, if not also...
I am not a buyer in this market. I try to stock up when markets and premiums are low. I said a few years ago here it was such a time, and I...
Most are mainly places to buy from the public. They then slab the best and sell online. Some old fashioned ones remain, but are rarer.

Maybe what constitutes a VF went down. ;)
Thank you very much. It confirms the places he was checking was trying to swindle him. I thought what he was quoted seemed outlandish.
My prediction? Once too many people start using Bitcoin as cash in the US the Fed and Comptroller of the Currency is going to smash it HARD. The...
