<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 5248778, member: 13650&quot;]Yeah you gotta sell to other collectors.&nbsp;&nbsp; The best I&#039;ve done on silver is using it as currency on coins I wanted at shows occasionally to help offset the cost.&nbsp;&nbsp; Most dealers are fine doing that.&nbsp; But every dealer wants to give you &quot;just back of melt&quot; regardless of what the item is.&nbsp; Which always blows my mind.&nbsp;&nbsp; You go to ebay today you can&#039;t get a quality 1 oz bar from a quality company for less than $32 to $34 PLUS shipping and tax.&nbsp;&nbsp; As soon as you get it, you bring to a dealer and they say they can give you $23 for it. </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Had a dealer tell me a pamp suisse bar in a card which carries the largest premium of any silver is worth melt value.&nbsp; Yeah, ok, no.&nbsp;&nbsp; You can say you want to pay melt for that the same as you would pay melt for a dull toned, beat up 1973 Christmas round and if somebody is foolish enough to sell them their pamp bars at melt then more power to them.&nbsp;&nbsp; I think dealers are looking for people desperate for any cash they&#039;re willing to give rather than paying what an average collector believes is fair.&nbsp; &nbsp; In the end the dealer buying it is the one that has to re-sell it and if they think they can&#039;t re-sell it for a profit, it isn&#039;t worth the transaction to help somebody out.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; I would like to buy a pamp bar from that dealer for melt... oh wait, wow, they don&#039;t have any!&nbsp;&nbsp; Cool.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
