Spot prices are no longer relevant to actual prices. If you can find some one to sell to you at spot you are a very lucky person. Just take a look at closing prices on ebay for bullion 10oz and 100oz bars. they will give you an idea of the actual price of silver. 6 months ago you could buy on ebay for spot or just under. Even Kitco is paying $1.35 over spot for Eagles and maple leafs. Until the time when Comex actually has to deliver its product the paper price cannot be trusted to have any relevance to the actual price.

In the past I have bought metals from Hannes Tulving. He's out of most types of silver, but does have some 1000 oz bars for sale at spot +.79. I think at that level shipping is free.
