<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cicero, post: 424954, member: 15650&quot;]PocketChange,</p><p>Dealers are a lot like oil companies.&nbsp; Prices shoot up quickly for gasoline, but they only slowly drift back down when the underlying comodity sinks in price. Some keep hoping against hope that the boom will continue.&nbsp; Others <b><i>bought</i></b> all that silver at such high prices that they don&#039;t want to admit (housing boom anyone?) that they overpaid for something that&#039;s not worth what they&#039;re now asking.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I&#039;ve noticed the same thing.&nbsp; Silver&#039;s nearly been cut in half since Feb/Mar (thanks for the charts andy21us!!), but dealers still price things like it&#039;s $20/oz.&nbsp; Don&#039;t worry, if the prices stay here or drift lower, it may be several months, but they&#039;ll eventually come back down to planet earth with the rest of us.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I remember the same thing happening in 1980-82.&nbsp; Metals prices declined dramatically, but you still couldn&#039;t buy a Morgan dollar at a dealer&#039;s shop for less than $40 as late as 1983.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Personally, I hope it drops for the next couple of years so I can get a chance to load up!&nbsp; It&#039;ll definitely be a good investment for the next decade.&nbsp; Just don&#039;t look for prices to come down until later this year.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
