<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 576720, member: 3011&quot;]I have to disagree with your premise.&nbsp; Silver prices don&#039;t rise or fall because of the activity of collectors.&nbsp; The price moves because of the volume traded by industrial users, miners, and speculators on the major commodity exchanges.&nbsp; None of the silver you mentions enters those markets.&nbsp; The fact that the dealer you cite didn&#039;t sell the silver in bulk to a smelter is evidence that this particular batch of silver isn&#039;t likely to be melted at anything close to current prices.&nbsp; There is probably something like 1billion of identifiable silver in the world according to analysts like Ted Butler.&nbsp; When you consider that trillions of dollars worth of currencies are traded daily, you begin to get an idea of how small the silver market is worldwide.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Time will tell but I believe that it is entirely possible for silver supplies to almost completely disappear within a few weeks time if/when industrial usage exceeds deliverable inventories.</p><p><br /></p><p>And that&#039;s enough for me on this subject.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
