One of my middle daughters sold another 120 ounces for $93 per ounce. Tomorrow my other middle daughter is selling 120 ounces. Eve and Isabel are cashing on the high prices. Their sisters have been as well. They are done with college so this goes into wedding account. lol

Funny I have been doing the negotiating for them all. Some buyers are wanting it today for cash. Other buyer's are staying away from the current market.

Just sharing what the market is actually paying. Wish I was sharing fur prices instead.

I quit buying when numbers were in the 20's. Piled a bunch over the years but never looked at it like an investment. At these prices gotta sell. Scary times with unpredictable markets.

If my girls want their weddings paid for they can talk to their mom.

All my silber got lost in a boating accident, sad part is some guns and ammo were lost as well.

Nice action!!

And you made the big banksters happy. Gathering in all the physical that they can to cover their paper commitments wink

I've never understood why the girls have to pay for the wedding.

My wife and I paid for ours.

You are not playing. Reason I have been collecting so long is to keep the power to the people. But I regress.

The Wall Street gang loves trading silver paper which they enjoy until they actually have to produce physical silver to cover their action. Then they drive up the price and get people to sell them the real stuff and the banksters think they get made "whole" again.

Don't think I'm pure as driven snow because I've sold silver when it was "low" a few years back because my little ponzy scheme on myself was starting to suck hind teety.I think I learned my lesson but we'll see.

At today's prices what would it have to drop down to make it a good price to buy again?

Silver hasn't skyrocketed because it is rare. It has done so because it now has many uses. So many uses in expensive, critical applications that what is currently "out there" and available for use, and "new stuff" being mined isn't enough to cover current demand. Add to that the length of time it takes to expand a current silver mine or develop a new one, and it's a bidding war for silver. And the commodities futures market on silver is going haywire.


Just doing what I want now.

Isn't most silver incidental from other mining operations?
Bycatch, if you will?

I think the jump is as much due to a move away from the dollar as it is demand
