<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SilverSurfer, post: 795313, member: 21603&quot;]Duke, the market isn&#039;t influenced by me, a small fry in the game.&nbsp; It&#039;s influence by big money, investment bankers and such.&nbsp; There is a sell and a bid price.&nbsp; They are never the same thing.&nbsp; Sometimes the gap between the sell and bid is small when the market is really moving.&nbsp; Other times the gap is huge.&nbsp; So, 90% of spot on a tight day during a bull run might be a bad deal.&nbsp; While the same 90% of spot on a huge gap day when the trading is light and the market is in a bear run might be a darn fine deal.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>My point on the not selling for less than spot is that, you can always shop around.&nbsp; Why sell your silver or gold to some dufus that wants to give you 60% of spot, when you can go down the block and find someone willing to offer 80% spot?&nbsp; Heck, keep searching and you might find some dumb pawn shop that doesn&#039;t keep track of bullion prices daily and they might offer you 90% of spot right after the market dropped 6% that day.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>But regardless, this is the seasonality time when gold and silver usually go up.&nbsp; You&#039;d probably get a better price in late April or early May right before the summer doldrums hit.&nbsp; So, why sell now for a price that isn&#039;t agreeable to you?</p><p><br /></p><p>I will agree though that you probably won&#039;t get spot for 90% junk silver.&nbsp; But, it is up to the individual to do the research to find out if the gap between sell and bid is tight or large, and if the market is going up or down.&nbsp; These things can change daily.&nbsp; But, seeing as we are in a long term bull run, why sell now for less than what you want or think you should get? It just doesn&#039;t make sense to do so.</p><p><br /></p><p>And like you can shop around and find a dealer offering what you want, the store dealer doesn&#039;t have that option.&nbsp; All he can do is sit there and wait for a sucker to come along and sell for less than what he should be getting.&nbsp; So, be diligent.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
