I used to buy a Coke at the milk bar for 80c in 1990 and now its like $2.50. Many things go up over time.
i got 7 66's delivered for $9.87 each. Couldn't believe i won them when others going over $11 plus postage. Something i have noticed is single coins with free postage seem to get bidded on quickly but well over $11 on the first day
I am happy that peolple are willing to give me Silver in return for my pretend paper money, buying as much as I can.
I've found that my thinking is going the wrong way in term of my wallet. As silver goes up i look at the smaller 1oz coins as being worth less so i only buy larger bars/coins.... except today, 10 x $10 State coins for spot.

I dont see the harm in buying a few premium bullion coins. They are cool and fun to fondle & show off. I wouldnt advise stacking them though - it ties too much of your money into premiums. But, buying a few coins here or there, who cares if they are $25 bucks or $32 bucks? For stacking, sure, stay away and score deals on bars or whatever. Dont forget US 90% coinage either. Its a great way to accumulate silver and have some fun with the numismatic coin hobby.
Hooley dooley, i obviously haven't looked at the price of 1oz coins fro quite some time. They are now $39! When did that happen?
Can someone please check to see that parallaxerror hasn't swollowed a dictionary, which judging by the signature line may well be the case
Sorry I find the statement "ridiculous prices of silver" pretty ridiculous. I don't mean to offend but I don't think we will ever so silver go below $20usd again even $25 for that matter nor gold below $1000usd. The bullion banks are in a bind. If they smackdown silver, the big players eat up the physical. If they let it rise, their shorts blow up. Just keep stacking even if the amount you are stacking by each month could lessening. I absolutely don't wait for the dips. It evens itself out in the end and I don't get pi$$ed off if I miss the dip.
