Two of my sellers are at $3 over spot. They are in an air-tite. Not a bad price compared to some other shops I've been in.

basically depends on where you go, if you have a coin dealer you've been dealing with for yrs then most likely you can get a fairly good deal

Towards the end of the show I went to last sunday, one of the dealers selling a mixture of 1oz bars, maple leafs, and ASE for $35 each which was about $0.75 over spot. Many of the other dealers were asking around $37 each.

I also think that timing is important as to what you will pay for the ASE's. Because the price of silver has been so volatile in the past 2 years, you can get a good deal on a downswing. The trick is to find the downswing. But if the price drops too fast then the dealers may not want to sell.

Quote:Anyone ever had any luck buying ASE's near melt? Several dealers in town sell those icky colorized, hologrammed and/or plated ASE's for $2 over melt...  You could get nice 1-oz. .999 rounds for the same premium.

A little acetone takes that paint right off and makes those cheaper ugly ASEs look good as new. I buy every one I can find if they are cheap enough.

Last week I bought my 2012 ASE for $4 over spot in an air tite. I thought that was a good deal.

The prices locally can vary a lot, depending on quantity. Typically I would aim if selling to get spot + $1 and if buying to be in the spot + $3 ball park. If you are buying rolls or monster box - maybe you can get it for spot + $2.75. If you are only selling 1 or 2, then probably spot would be fair price.

I pulled the trigger on some 2012 ASE at a local jewelers for $3.50 over spot. He will buy them back for $1 over spot. So, as long as silver goes up....?!?!?!

This is one area you need to shop around in. Some dealers sell ASE's at spot, but; only the older ones. Remember this years ASE's were bought by the dealers at a premium over spot from the mint. While older ASE's were bought and sold at different prices at different times.

Thanks for the advice. He told me that older ASEs would be cheaper but I wanted my first purchase to be new ones. I plan to buy other silver coins for the look and bullion value.

I bought a quantity of 2007-W Uncirculated ASE's at $5 over spot for each coin, including all the OGP they're still in (boxes, COA's, capsules).
