ClS12 I haven't even ask if the dollars are also at 15x face value . I would guess not . Why are rounds a better buy ? I picked up a few from 20 to 22 each also I don't know if this is the correct prices for them .

$1 FV x 15 = $15 for 0.715 oz of silver
1 oz silver round could likely be found for closer to $17 online, so you'd accumulate quantity faster.

Being in nyc maybe you'd have better luck buying 90% silver from jewelers or pawn shops...

CLS I've tried some pawn shops and some other places they all tell me that that buy junk for melt . The best coin shop I found 15X and there is a antique medals and coin that's 18x . They both have there up side and down side to them . I don't think I even scratched the surface as far as the jewlers and pawn shops . I can't find enough time to go to everyone and ask them about it . That's way I was hoping someone had done the leg work.

$1 - $99 face for a hair over 14 x face, cash. Orders over $100 free shipping. Already gave name of vendor but once again, Provident Metals. Easy as swinging by the Post Office, if you're never home.

Thanks fistfullofdirt that sounds like a great back up plan bug for x15 face value I can pick out what I want in person . I was told that x15 was high but maybe it's not because a lot of the responses I've been getting is in a range from 14 to 16 x

I was in the city February and there was a tiny little shop on W47th st. I don't remember the name of the place, but it was right by one of the mega jewelry stores. The prices were fair and paying with cash made them better.

This is partly to the OP and partly a question to everyone else. I just saw ebay auction #252157225795 (not sure if I can post link?), Looks like its for 13X, that's a fair deal for mostly cull-ish SLQ, right? Assuming its legit and all.

Considering all the weight loss, not a bad deal.

@ Rookiecards. Since you said you are in NJ and work in NYC I am assuming you are in the northern NJ area. There are a plethora of shops around in NJ. Clifton there is a big one on main street. know your stuff though because Jeff can be a bit slippery sometimes. Rockaway there is another good one and there are a few smaller shops ive seen around town.

Somewhat similar to you (Live in LI, work in NYC) and I can't find a decent deal in the city. Must be their rents. There's an antique/coin place on 32nd and 5th asking 18X, the folks around Times Square are at 16X now.

There's a local shop near me where I've been buying between 13/14X depending on spot price. I like using him, even if it's a bit more than online because I'd like a relationship with a local guy if something ever happened and I was looking to sell. If you ever get out Nassau county way, shoot me a PM and I'll give you name.
