[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3247028, member: 77814"]This is precisely the answer. The OPs question /theory does not take into account the process for the seller, but only the single monster box sale. The seller probably kept some boxes to profit from a potential metals price rise, hopefully. When that doesn’t happen they sell to free up cash to start the process all over again. Also at what point does this particular dealer think that silver spot will rise versus flat or fall. Sometimes it’s best to sell at a loss rather than potentially later at more of a loss. Preserve as much cash as possible while converting the silver asset to cash which is far more useful for buying other stuff and having money to conduct business. You can’t pay the electric bill with silver last time I checked.[/QUOTE]
