    Have not bought a single ounce for many many years.
    Finally this year I am smelling a change in the air. A wind of change.
    The exuberances and hipe are rampant elsewhere, and the despised forgotten bitten up silver and gold is not liked anymore.
    For me it's a deja vu, a throwback to 2003.
    Am I the only one who feels like that?
    Anyone else here is having the same feeling that the goose is about to get cooked?
    Any one else loading up the truck on the days like today?
    Anyone here thinks rockets "to tha moon" are nigh?
    Silver drops almost dead, gold plummets, ain't this an opportunity, and no comments ?
    Hm....
    You are on to something. I had this feeling as well lately that it is about to break free and get into vogue. The nouveau Riche in cryptocurrencies may want to start diversify into other stores of value, that isn't fiat based, cause they hate that! PM Dealers accepting cryptocurrencies delivering internationally with well functioning internet order systems, will do very well, and probably drive the price in this leg up!

    The key word to look at is "wait". Silver has been the absolute dog weighing down it's owner for the past 5 years.

    Yes, I'm a silver bug, but the only word that comes to mind...Fuck.

    Sorry for swearing.

    I think within a couple of years silver will be up to $50, then things will start to move quickly. But you are correct silver is a dog! But hey look at it from the bright side. It could have been worse you could have bought it at $50 in January 1980, what is that worth today $400? 97% of the time it is a dog, but it makes the 3% the more exciting when it happens... LOL

    Like EE said, I do sleep easy having it. If I didn't have silver right now, I'd probably back the truck up. I do think now is a good time to buy...however, and I've said this before. Silver is a long term investment. I'm thinking 20 years actually. I hope to be retired when I finally do sell.

    Silver is a combo of insurance and long term investing, imo. If silver goes shooting up to $50 suddenly, things have gotten very bad and the insurance aspect kicks in.
    life is good.

    I check all these places below first.

    I've bought confidently from:
    apmex
    provident metals
    jm bullion
    gold dealer
    monarch
    out of the five apmex, provident and jmb appeared to me to be the strongest, as others were either low on inventory or weird.

    I wrote a small script to automatically monitor the offerings of the three.


    Here is an example of the yield of the script -

    <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< SILVER >>>>>>>>>>>>
    SAE
    ----JM Bullion 18.50
    ----Apmex 18.66
    ----Provident 18.06
    SBUFFALO
    ----Apmex 16.46
    ----JM Bullion 16.70
    ----Provident 16.35

    <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< GOLD >>>>>>>>>>>>
    GAE
    ----JM Bullion 1273.36
    ----Apmex 1,273.19
    ----Provident 1276.94
    Krug
    ----Apmex 1,253.19
    ----JM Bullion 1259.36
    ----Provident 1252.9

    Bottom line: Apmex is still appear to be the best for buying gold bullions, while Provident is the king of silver.

    Gold coins are available at 40$ ( 3.3% ) above the spot
    Silver coins are available at $0.87 ( 5.4% ) above the spot

    Similar situation is with the Generic 1 oz rounds at 5-8% over spot - only about few hundred pieces remaining at some of the places.

    Well, to be fair, there are still buttloads of SAE available at crazy 15%-20% (!) over spot depending on the dealer, but the good stuff is getting picked up

    Dealers have been known to pull inventory during sharp drops as well....... although they'll never admit it.
