[QUOTE="andrew289, post: 1660948, member: 6463"]Good Morning, Some really great comments over the weekend, wonderful. Duke - Cars/loans compared to selling silver is kinda like apples and oranges. Most of the folks I know selling silver don't have a clue about the market or what they can expect as a fair offer. Compared to cars and bank rates, you can't turn on the TV or radio with out seeing commercials and it's all over the printed press. There is far more information available to the general public so that they can make an informed decision. All the general public knows about selling silver is the "we BUy GOld" adds, the local coin shop in the strip mall next to the dry cleaner or the coin show flyer tacked up on the bulletin board at the grocery store.
