Dealers in my area refuse to sell when it goes too low. They were forced to restock at higher prices so they just sit on what they have. I can't blame them. Looks like Saturday will be spent at the LCS looking at high grade "junk" if I can find any.

Seems like I can't find any silver locally on these low dips. The bullion houses go out of stock also.

I recall reading that the last time silver was lower. I have been lucky to find it locally at any quantity even a few coins! Three percent over spot

it was told already!
wait till public rushes to the stores dumping their silver )))

here in Japan there is not so many buyers of silver: I keep tracking the auction here and know almost all big buyers, so when price drops, these buyers stop bidding and I can get metal way lower than spot. As of sellers ... well, it stays the same, no more no less ...

This is one of the things people dont often consider when looking at how hard it is to find things. I'm sure dealers around the country do this if they can afford too and even the major sellers with a portion of their inventory if they feel the prices will come back up. Afterall theyre in the business to make money not lose it

Silvers decline and its future price has nothing to do with numerology, that's rich lol

The pricing of silver will eventually come to stop at a point that has repeated before. Patterns and prices repeat, they always do and always will. So, numbers in terms of price are important.

What does this all mean? It means that there are price levels where sliver will turn into and find support. Does that mean that where it finally stops going down? No it does.t

This is why level by level will be important. The market will show clues and its behavior with previous price action will be key.

Now that we are seeing a downtrend, make sure you dont go head first thinking, "oh this is it, if I dont get some here I miss the dip"... because this will become an expensive proposition and you will be saying, "oh I wish I had waited".

I repeat myself again as I have many many times, what becomes cheap will become cheaper."

Last Feb 21 silver was 36.93 ; June 28 it was 26.32 : Oct 5 it was 34.40 : Dec 24 it was 29.70 :Jan 23 it was 32.20 ;Feb 15 it closed at 29.80 .

Really are we ready to call it ? Two years ago silver was $26+ at the beginning of Feb, by April it was $48.70, by Dec it was back to $26. What is different , that makes everyone think we are on our way down to $10. We will be back over 30 by the end of the weekend.

Yes, I guess you can never tell what will really happen. The best advice is I guess to buy when there are dips to the current prices as now. Below $30 again right now.

I have yet to pick up any Bullion but have finally decided to splurge! Being sub 30 seems like a good time, although I feel like it might drop a little more so I might try to hold off a few more days.

Denco, you ask, what is different....

I'll tell whats different. The market is ALWAYS forward looking. Right now going forward its saying loud and clear that prices are going down. The market is discounting the need for silver, which in this case I feel is more towards investment/hedging rather than industrial use.

What we know price was from the past, and while price has memory it doesn't mean that it stops at that point.

Below 30 is key, I think a slow grind to 25 is next. I also think a lot of folks are going to get murdered buying every dip and quietly they will wish they had waited before even starting to nibble/buy.

Goldmart is pushing very hard their Bison's on me, I been emailed to death by them. No way no how, I;ll buy a few for my collection but the whole roll I wont buy until there is plenty of murder in silver.

I'd personally consider dumping my silver when it passes $23-$24 which is an unprecedented price point for a couple of years.
But I think that such a crash isn't possible and realistic to happen.
Right now I only have $199 in my bank account and am putting out half to buy silver because it has value to me which I wasn't able to get a hold of it when it was around $40.
I still remember that one time where I bought a 1oz Sunshine Bar from Amazon for $61 due to my inexperience lol.
So value is value, go with your guts, buy if it makes sense. Importantly absorb as much news as possible in order to come with a better consensus.

That's nice to be able to do that. I never knew of a club to buy at. Is it a local coin shop?

Bought some more gold and silver this morning before the U.S. market opened after watching prices drop sharply overnight. I was hoping that prices would rise once the U.S. market opened and people starting buying like crazy, but it looks like I guessed wrong this time...

Broke the $29 barrier this morning. I noticed some dealers are increasing markup to help recover from lower prices.

The next two weeks will be interesting if govt layoffs happen and automatic cuts hit. Between high gas (over $5 in California), return to old SS tax rate and furloughs we may see some lower prices yet.
