We have name and shame type lists so I thought it might be good to "name and praise" someone who has gone above and beyond. As some of you will know a member known as “Andrew Crawford” sometimes sells items on this forum. I would like to make a public announcement to make everyone aware of a...

I vote the 50 Peso, but that's just me. They aren't making any more of them, and 100oz silver bars of one description or another are getting pumped out all the time. It's probably and Australian thing too, it's hard to get a 50 Peso coin here but 100 Oz bars are everywhere.

I have several Milwakee brand cordless grinders and they do get used commercially. I would recommend them.

What are you paying for 20 containers in the USA at the minute? They are like gold here just now.

'78 XC GXL with a 351 & 4 speed. In once piece and I still got her.

Yep, It was a joke. I think most people on this forum would agree the purchasing power of the dollar is dropping every day.

The easy way to double your money at an auction is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

What happened?

I have seen many high end items of jewelry for sale lately where comments have been made refencing the rising spot price of gold in relation to the value going up. My question is: "Does the spot price of gold really effect the value of high end jewelry or is it sellers trying to push the price...

South Western USA is in big trouble at the minute with water supply. Yes they have had drought as such and yes they are wasteful, but if it wasn't for the foresight of people in the 1930-1950's building big dams on the Colorado river & tributaries (including the Hoover) where would they be now...

If they can find buckets of money to have a referendum on gay marriage and foreign aid etc, etc, why can they not build dams in our country? They could actually make money out of that in the long run.

Yep, But flooding kind of shows there is a lot of "wasted water" if you like. If dams could be constructed to trap all that water when it falls, it could be used later. I know there are environmental problems building dams, and they can cover up large areas of good farm land but there will be...

Personally I would sit on what little I have and buy more, if, and only if I had spare money. I do not think silver and gold are an investment, they do not make money, but a long term savings plan. To me unless you by at a crazy highs like the 1980 silver price spike, over 20 - 30 years they...

I can't answer that, business reasons I guess. Much of the produce sold in supermarkets in FNQ has been to the Brisbane markets and back by the time you get it from a supermarket or cafe near where it was grown. The beef grown in Western QLD is sent to Townsville live and brought back in...

Why? Australia produces more food than we need, why not sell the excess?

FTW. If things are seriously that bad and you need to put yourself through that much mental anguish over a little piece of gold or silver I personally wouldn't sell it. I try to look on the bright side of life and I would hope most people are OK. Life is too short for me to live in fear of...
