mkfarm Pillar of the Community United States 667 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 1:30 pm I am certainly going to buy but I may wait to see if some more bargain pricing will come. If it drops below $20 I will take a larger risk that is for sure. Great day and something I was hoping for. Well heck to me it didn't hurt if it went to $20 or $100 I figure it is a win any way it goes. I guess you can tell who doesn't have to sell any right now. Report this Post to the Staff
TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4868 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 1:31 pm Just took a quick browse of ebay prices and silver eagles and maple leafs are still averaging around $50 each. I think that is too big of a markup from $32. Report this Post to the Staff
oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 1:36 pm Some of the ebay sellers are just cutting/pasting the same prices and are not using the fluctuating spot...and then wonder why nobody is biting. Report this Post to the Staff
barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5855 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 1:37 pm Oh no! It just went up $20! Does that mean it has fallen as far as it will fall and I should buy now before it gets any higher, or is this just a dead cat bounce?

barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5855 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 1:40 pm Oops, never mind. The price seems to be dropping again... I've got to leave in a few hours. Maybe I'll buy just before then. Or maybe I should wait until this evening to see what the after market price is...

TheForce Pillar of the Community United States 4868 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 1:47 pm Should I have the audacity to e-mail an ebay seller whom is selling silver eagles and maples and ask them why they are charging $50 or more when silver is $32 and send them a link showing where current silver spot price is?

SDcoinguy Pillar of the Community United States 2424 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 1:53 pm well, its currently at $30/oz i would wait till the weekend to buy. but what if it continues to drop monday?>? or what if it climbs monday>?! AGHH.. what to do what to do... Report this Post to the Staff
barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5855 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 2:09 pm Hmmmm... methinks I waited too long. Gold seems to be on a major upswing right now and has gained $20/ounce in the last little bit. I'm guessing a LOT of people decided now was the time to buy when it hit $1635....

murrellington Pillar of the Community United States 3276 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 2:33 pm SD, I think its a good idea to buy some now. not a ton, just some. and if it drops next week buy more. if it rises next week then at least you will have bought some at the lower price.

tripncoins Pillar of the Community United States 648 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 7:47 pm Oh yes, I am buying and I'm buying more as it drops. Thank you very much. Report this Post to the Staff
Silverhawk74 Pillar of the Community United States 3670 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 8:39 pm I think wait until about 7 Sunday night, and if silver crosses 31, buy buy buy, and if it starts to drop, wait to see how low into the 20's it goes.... Report this Post to the Staff
barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5855 Posts	Posted 09/23/2011 9:09 pm Are the prices stable over the weekend while the markets are closed? I did finally bite the bullet and bought 1 gold coin just as gold hit $1650. In the end, it probably wasn't worth getting just one coin, once I figured in the shipping and insurance, the cost of the wire transfer, the premium over spot, etc. But at least I can now say I own some gold...

LOL It's hard for small ebay sellers to stay with falling spot prices especially given the high volatility. Bullion dealers can afford to do so because they just buy more at even lower wholesale prices, but the average Joe (not our Joe) can't afford to knowingly sell at 20+% loss. I suppose though, they should just take the listings off so as to not insult the knowledgeable, but a great sport, sucker fishing is. Report this Post to the Staff
chris12018 Pillar of the Community United States 2130 Posts	Posted 09/24/2011 12:24 pm I picked up some today for myself & family members. I will most likely be picking up more come Monday. I hope it either drops lower or stays the same. Either way I'll be there. Report this Post to the Staff
