Thanks dccpa. I'd say around the 2 year to 4 year period. Sounds like you have been in these (lunars) for a long time. It may change if the snake comes down after the frenzy and spot falls again for a few more weeks into October. They would look a little more attractive but all this dragon...

Just wondered what the guys who've been through many a lunar release and are in a tidy profit think of this. Please note this is not Australia but Euro dealers where I don't think coins are as competitive and subject to taxes. As it stands the Lunar snake appears on sale or you can buy now via...

Interesting a big Euro dealer has just dropped the price of the 1 oz silver dragon which they still have from release by about 20%. For all the talk of the demand/supply they are still easy to come by at the inflated rates and not on the secondary market. As I've said before where was all...

If it's the snake on the tree branch that I see on a Google search I really like it. All it needs now is the price to be right, which I still have serious doubts about.

Can someone please tell me how JP Morgan (which is basically the right and left hand of the US federal Reserve) and borrows as much as they need for free is ever going to be finished/bankrupt ? What is worrying is that there are so many people who appear to fall for this stuff time and again.

I think this is very much an Australian thing where the dealers on a whole may be smaller and local? It is never difficult to get silver per se in Europe. It's one of those things the permbulls seemed to love to get all in a pickle over. It's not the fall in silver prices that causes very...

Couldn't agree more with that analysis by both you and wrcmad. At the 200 MA (if it gets there) I'm shorting too. I just hope it gets battered before the snakes are released. I had a feeling this was going to happen. Why can't it just blo*dy stay at $26 and change for a few more weeks. :(

I'll hazard a guess at a sympathy play off platinum but could be dead wrong.

Can't help with the sourcing, but the 20% saving would only be relevant if he doesn't get stopped on his return. Is it worth it, plus the weight can mount up quickly. Hope he has that factored in on his luggage and the security risk :)

Interested to know why silver reached $49 and change then? Buying is a light-on moment on the whole, so have all those who would have bought then suddenly run into truffles or something? Or is it that we were as irrelevant to the price now as then?

Not being up on lunars I would appreciate some help on mintages. Am I right in my presumption that although mintages are unlimited bar the 1 oz coin, will the PM stop once 2012 is finished? I am considering picking up a 5 oz dragon and just wondered if unlimited meant they can keep churning...

I like him myself but his predictions other than ultra short term have been way off for over a year. He's called the bottom 3 or 4 times already and been dead wrong over that time frame. It will be interesting the next month or two for me as he has called this week the turn, yet the technicals...

Please nooooooo TG! It can do what it likes after mid September and the snakes are in the bag! If they jack the premiums up anyway like the dragons and silver has already put in it's low I really will be a broken man! I knew I should have just gone with 2011 pandas I saw silly cheap when spot...

Having just had a quick gaze at the recent Friday closes it's a mixed bag actually. I also think the last 6 Fridays have seen the general markets up which the metals usually trade with. Pull out the Options-ex windows that fall around there and it's probably silver rises every Friday like...

Like it. Was only wondering yesterday why my dealer has just jacked the price of the moose. Now I know, thanks OP. Any release date?

We haven't had the 'fright' event yet and the Bernank is not going to announce easing with oil at around $90 a barrel prior. Couple that with what is looking like a slow down big time just about everywhere now (including Asia) and little industrial silver isn't going to dance it's own tune...

TG, I beg to differ fine sir! I doubt it even gets there but if it does..................Sloping trendline into 200 dma , $30 and change, bang down she comes on spot. I'm not as bearish on either metal now, I reckon around $24 silver and $1475- $1500 gold will be it. I'm just hoping we are...

I'd say you did about as well as possible. Price is extremely competitive, coin fits your criteria and even now having been a buyer for a long time I'd struggle to do better. Don't worry too much about diversifying, I'd stick to the coins and there is no CGT on Britannias. Not yet anyway :)...

+1 Now this lad does know of what he talks.

Interesting view 1for1 and I was kind of coming to some of the same conclusions. I wonder why if the Chinese demand was so great for a poxy 300,000 coins why now many months on numerous European dealers still have them in 1 oz form for sale? Kind of contradicts the whole dragon thing to me...
