<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 441435, member: 13650&quot;]I&#039;m going to say something here that&#039;s probably going to make some people mad, but so be it.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; You can buy all the silver you want, all day, on ebay.&nbsp; But you&#039;re going to pay.&nbsp; Is it too high?&nbsp;&nbsp; I don&#039;t know.&nbsp; You tell me.&nbsp; If nobody can find any anywhere, but there&#039;s a never ending supply on ebay and you want some, well.....?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; You can throw the spot price out the window.&nbsp; 6 months ago, it seemed to make a little sense.&nbsp; Now?&nbsp;&nbsp; Almost no point in looking at it.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Proof, in factory plastic, one oz. silver bars are going for not less than 17-20 dollars a piece on ebay every day.&nbsp;&nbsp; When spot was 16.00, that is what they were selling for.&nbsp; Spot is 10.21 today, but that is what they are still selling for.&nbsp; No, I can&#039;t explain it but it isn&#039;t an anomaly.&nbsp; It&#039;s a trend that&#039;s been going on for months.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; So do we say, &quot;everybody is over-paying&quot;?&nbsp;&nbsp; I don&#039;t, because I generally look at items on ebay, traditionally a buyer&#039;s market, to set a bottom line on what&#039;s the cheapest I should be able to get something at.&nbsp; No matter what the product may be.&nbsp;&nbsp; A 3rd generation I-pod Nano is 200.00 retail.&nbsp;&nbsp; They go for 150.00 or less on ebay every day.&nbsp;&nbsp; This is the case on just about anything you want to look at.&nbsp; Like it or not, this is the cheapest place you&#039;re going to find things.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;What things are selling for on there is what people, who are expecting a good deal, are willing to pay.&nbsp; If you expect to get 1 oz. bars for 11.00 right now, you&#039;re not going to be buying any.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;If you want to buy large amounts (50 oz+) in bulk, straight from the mints for a few bucks over spot, you&#039;re going to be waiting 8-12 weeks to get it.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;That is what you&#039;re looking at right now and I won&#039;t even make an attempt to guess when this will change.&nbsp; I think it&#039;s more likely than not to see silver climb than keep dropping, just based on what&#039;s happening with supply right now and what people have to pay over what seems to be an artificial spot price.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;Only my observations and opinions.&nbsp; I think it&#039;d be great if it went back to 5 bucks but, it&#039;s not going to happen.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
