Is Silver next?

Yes, what I mentioned, “already on radar”. I’m surmising in your case they wanted to know, find out, if you were somehow involved. Just a guess of course.

Festus——

Apparently Festus is a popular name among the Owusu clan - I found more than I expected. Here is one link to a PDF about the particular one involved.
(This is also what the emails from VNS look like.)

Ya, I just hope the bums didn’t hurt you to much.

Actually no, I was not hurt much, not really anymore than any other taxpayer that got ripped off by the $Billions tax fraud done by people like these.
The only thing that changed for me is now I receive a PIN from the IRS every year to put on my tax forms and also I get hassled more almost every time I buy a gun and have to do a NICS check.
The first person you get when you call in a NICS check can see a flag saying I have an FBI file but they don't have the clearance to look at the file. The next person up the line has the clearance and can look at the file and see it is nothing more than ID theft, so they can approve the transaction. The problem occurs when the second person is not immediately available because they are on a break or taking a dump or something. Then I get a "delay" from NICS. This is a pain in the butt if I am out of town and can't buy the gun until NICS calls back or more likely until the 3 business days has passed. This means an extra trip to wherever to finish buying the gun.

That sure explains a lot. I’ve only had one delay in my life about 10-12 years ago. I always thought it was a clerk at a computer terminal, either yes or no.

And to get this thread back on track, gold went parabolic at the opening bell close to 2000.00 now, silver is running also looks like 22.55 as I type. Not looking good for banks. Dollar down .62 cents. I’d like to see the Fed. Res. get a poke in the eye.

Arrived today. Ordered 3/9, shipped Thursday.
These were Silvergoldbull generic rounds, but they are all Sunshine Mint and all new.
At this time they no longer have a generic 1 oz round for sale, and their cheaper ones are all pre-sale only.

Wish I was able to buy a monster box when price was <$20

 

[snorko]

Nice choice. I like Sunshine Mint rounds above most.

 

[spencer rifle]

I didn't really get a choice. This was one of those "send me what you got" things. Still happy though.

Of course they don’t have any for sale. They would have to buy bullion at current market prices then produce new rounds. The cost would make them price prohibitive. The ones they had/have on hand were purchased at a much lower price when bullion was cheaper. They cannot sell at a loss. Now they may have 5-10-100 oz. bars they will sell because they have them in stock. Don’t know. But if you want, you may want to check into that avenue.

Now I am speaking of the original producers. Your seller may be out of stock, and will not sell a specific round but have others, if they sell anything it will be at a profit. At a profit being the key element.

Take notice of the fact that bullion is at it’s current price, now if smelters buy now and deliver a product to retailers, when you attempt to buy when the price bottoms in a month or so, they all of sudden “don’t have any”. JMO.

In the last 10 years silver has only gone down a couple dollars. That is not too bad but not exactly keeping up with inflation.

When you guys see cheaper prices on silver tomorrow I'll be expecting to see a round of "internet high fives". I placed an order today and since I've done that I expect to see it's value drop almost immediately. You're all welcome.

Hard to tell till after we hear what the Fed. says today. We all may get a surprise.

And thar she blows

 

[snorko]

Dow down +/-1.6%
My IRA down +/-1.0%
Gold UP 1.46%
Silver UP 2.41%

This is why we hedge.

Diversification is the word of the day. Metal, land, firearms, real estate, livestock, just about anything except FRN’s, they have their use but it’s a narrow window. JMO

 

[Mij]

Might be some profit taking going on in metals. This ain’t carved in stone, but I wouldn’t be surprised if prices go up before closing bell. No one wants to park there money in the bank over the weekend. Just a passing thought.

I had an email yesterday from SD Bullion. They are saying they don’t have enough people and to be patient for up to 7 additional business days for an order to arrive.

The biggest point I saw was they are “temporarily “ raising the free shipping from 200 to 500 minimum purchase. To concentrate on larger orders ! It makes me feel as a smaller investor not too important to them. My budget is that 200 range when I purchase, so I either save up to buy or look for another supplier.

Didn’t know if anyone else got that email.
Have a great day !
