I decided 10 or 15 years ago not to buy any pre-1933 (US) gold that wasn't slabbed by PCGS or NCG. I think even if I bought an AGE or ML I'd want...
I'm curious as to how you've done with your safes full of silver? Did you buy it when it was cheaper? Are you at least at break-even? Or? There...
I had a similar experience to the OP a few weeks ago at a LCS in NH. He offered me $50 under spot for a mediocre gold $10 Indian. I thought it was...
I remember a few years ago when silver was $40. Wish I'd have sold more of mine then. I also remember in 1979/80 when silver hit $25 & gold around...
More & more "mainstream" (meaning, those who are usually focused on equities &/or bonds, not PM) money managers are getting into gold. I read...
Did you read my previous post where I said: "I guess that dealer wasn't B.S.-ing me after all, & maybe his offer was at least in the ballpark."?...
I will. They have this shipping system (for sellers) where they send you a UPS 1st or 2nd day air label & go drop the package off at a UPS store....
Yeah, but he wasn't complaining about the Genuine holder--it was all that stuff about pre-1933 gold being a glut on the market right now. I find...
So I go into this small b&m coin & bullion dealer in this medium size town I live in in New England. I didn't expect much, but I'd never been to...
"I quoted Peter Lynch because he's the one who said it. Was that too obvious?" longnine009 Yes, we know he said it. But why is someone who hates...
Why are you quoting one of the greatest stock investors of all time when you say you'd be "puking all over myself" if you bought stocks? FWIW, you...
Good article in the NYT 5/4/11: Sales of Home Safes Surge, Driven by the Recession and Recent Disasters...
I live in an expensive suburb of Boston. A lot of the people moving in here & buying $1.5 mil. McMansions are either Chinese, or Indian. The guy...
As far as: Stackers like to think that when they need to use/sell their bullion it will be at some future point in time when crisis is everywhere...
$4.42 over spot when silver is only $19?? That is a huge premium for bullion coins that are cranked out by the millions year in & year out........
2 really good videos on CNBC from 6/28/13. The 1st, the bald "Pawn Stars" guy on gold & silver, talking about how he's having trouble getting...
I have the opposite view. I'd trust Jon Stewart any day over Cramer (as a person at least). And as far as "Jim always had full position...
"Cramer" was only recently recommending gold at between $1500--$1700; using the old saw that "everyone should own some gold". (a phrase that some...
It's usually political or economic fear that leads people to overpay for PM, near a top. They then rationalize it by saying, their $$ are only...
I agree. It seems like it stacks the deck against (smaller scale) silver investors. And I don't remember the premiums on either 90%, or ASE's,...
