<p>[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2910860, member: 76194"]Well, Monarch pays back 98% spot price on .999 bars. If I ever need to sell, Ill just cram a couple hundred ounces in a US mail flat rate box, and with insurance and everything it shouldn't be worse than $12 to send. So I should be able to get back very close to 98% spot price if I were to send back a couple of bars for sale. And if Monarch is no longer in business, I'll resell them to another refiner. There are other refiners out there that will also pay close to spot proce on .999 bars.</p><p><br /></p><p>Why would I not be able to get near spot anywhere else too? Are you saying no one would want to pay spot price or near spot price for a poured silver bar from a well recognized company like Monarch?</p><p><br /></p><p>As far as premium, maybe I can't get one now, but in a few years when they've redesigned their poured bar line whose to say the older bars wont command a premium? Plus who cares about a $1.50 per ounce premium now if you are going to sell much later? Or what about the price of enjoyment of holding poured bars with one's bare hands? Or the pride in ownership of bars that are unique (no two poured bars are exactly alike.) Surely that is worth something to someone looking to own something more fun than a dime a dozen generic stamped bar. And if its worth nothing extra to someone else, at least it is to me, which is all that matters.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
