<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 26672035, member: 13650&quot;]There are collectors, there are stackers and there&#039;s people who are a mix of both.&nbsp; I am both.&nbsp;&nbsp; Some family members gave me things to stash away as early as when I was probably seven years old.&nbsp;&nbsp; This wasn&#039;t long after the huge silver run up in 1980 so I imagine it was still fresh in a lot of people&#039;s minds what silver was capable of and $5/oz looked pretty cheap for quite a while.&nbsp; &nbsp; I got a one oz bar for my 8th grade graduation.&nbsp; Wasn&#039;t collecting or asking for one.&nbsp;&nbsp; As time went on I started realizing the potential myself.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; A passion for serious collecting didn&#039;t hit me until 2008.&nbsp; &nbsp; Instead of having a MS-63 trime, I could have bought a few 10 oz silver bars at the time so I&#039;m not all stacker.&nbsp; Maybe 30% to that side just because it&#039;s usually uneventful and not that interesting.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; When a week like last week happens it&#039;s hard to ignore.&nbsp; It affects the collecting side pretty hard at the lower end and gold.&nbsp; Can only imagine where things go from here.&nbsp;&nbsp; Think the fundamentals remain, that silver is getting used up faster than getting re-supplied as it has for the past five years.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Going to find out how much the Comex can supply this year.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
