was in a random part of town i don't get to very often this afternoon, wandered into the local cash converters, was somewhat taken aback to see about 10 2oz perth mint silver coins in the jewellery cabinet. 2 07 kooks, a s2 tiger and a bunch of s2 rabbits. You hardly ever see bullion coins in cashies.
asked the guy at the counter how much he wanted for them. "$200 each and that's not negotiable"
oh really? that's interesting.
old mate then proceeded to lecture me that silver is $100 an ounce atm and that if they don't sell he'll send them off to get melted and he'll get $100 each for them and he does it all the time. Like actually getting a kinda hostile tone in his voice.
I said to him, i think you'll find that silver is about $28 an ounce at the moment mate, and he talked over me, NO, IT IS $100 an ounce.
was all good, i picked up a couple of cool dvds i was after for $2 each.
Laissez-fare economy and all that.
