I personally do. The horse is close to this price, and I'm certain there are a lot less rabbit kilos vs. horse kilo. I think APMEX must have purchased like 100,000 kilo horses from the PM...they seem to have an unending supply. I know, I know, these can be minted until 2019. All I'm saying is, so can't the other animals, and they are are hard to find. So obviously, although they can be minted until 2019, they aren't. lol. By the way, a curious question I had is, when the last kilo is issued, are you telling me that they will only have 1 year to meet demand, and come 2019, that's it for the latest issue? Whereas the other animals had many, many, many years to meet demand. Something not right about that picture, yes?
Yea there supply of the horse is crazy. I bought back in December when they were 580. I just ran across these rabbits for 674. On ebay the last sold for 715$ maybe I will grab one... Maybe wait and see if the silver price goes down tonight?
No joke right? I bought when spot was just under 15. Not sure what the price was at the time, but for some reason 530.00 is jumping out at me. And timing was perfect, because at the time, I got a big comm'ish check. lol. that's when I loaded up on the kilos and the 2 oz horses (43'ish). Crazy, Apmex is trying to get 88 for those suckers. just nuts I tell you. I have a 150 of those bad boys. Thanks to someone here pointing out that Provident had them on sale at the time. yum, yum. Silver may go to 10, who knows, right? 674.00 good price, no doubt. but maybe you can get a better price. Just make sure they have more than 1. lol.
Here in EU lunar horses are nearly nowhere to find, and 10kg ones not a single. Apmex still has them for sale. If my euro currency wasn't so low, and the silver price the same as my last purchase, I'd consider buying one. Yesterday I was very tempted but I managed to resist it (pfew!) Also, after a closer look at its picture, I started to find it so-so. I thought (wrong?) that another coin size just was a same design magnified/shrunk, with the bigger the more detail. But at a closer look, the 10 kilo version of the horse in the back looks like the 1 kilo version plus some years bodybuilding. It like became... the horse of farmer Joe. I'm now abit less tempted. I wonder if Apmex sometimes decides to "corner" a specific market segment. That, or people sell alot times back to Apmex, if you see their big variation of products that looks like quite the case. When a lunar year has passed, and a next replaced them, all dealers (that I visit) put a big addition to the price of the old. A part of them makes that addition bigger with every older year, but another part just asks the same as the previous year. What explains this different behaviour? Fact is that lunar rabbits have costed those that bought them then, way more than now, due to the silver price then being double todays one. Are some dealers giving a higher price to people that wanna sell these to them? I've see some doing that, others just give a same solely spotprice based price. If this would explain the price difference, then it's again the silver price trend that has been the cause, so with a more stable price trend over the years, maybe the difference also shrinks.
Kilo rabbit at $582 US....and they are fairly reputable... coincidentally I just got that email a day or 2 ago http://www.goldeneaglecoin.com/item/australian-lunar-silver-1-kilo-silver-series-ii-2011-rabbit
I'm thinking they might have minted up some more of these things sometime in the past 6 months, as they've popped up elsewhere, as well..
