Reduced Number of Silver Bars for Sale?

[spannermonkey]

The problem is everybody wants them at less than spot! People need to realistic with price expectations.

But yet the newer members buy premium "COLLECTABLE " coins for big $
But because they have some $ to spend they think they can set the price

I'm pretty confident I can get those 10oz bars
So here is my offer ,before I get them .
At tomorrow closing prices from W.Davis 10oz bars + $20 each
20 maybe 30 available

New members think collectable coins are easier to move and can make more $ on them as bars are always going around a little bit higher than spot.

I'm referring to the more arty type of coins ,like the Tiffany coin I sld for $3800
Somebody was talking about a coin in the shape of an oyster ,25gm for $500
I can understand Lunars & Pandas (once you have done your homework )

Perhaps people are being turned away from bars somewhat because of the relative ease they can be forged. Even if Perth Mint bars arent being forged today, in 10 years time maybe they will be.

People might be thinking that for maybe $1 more an ounce instead of buying a bar you can buy the 10oz Dragon which because of its intricate design and legal tender status affords you a higher level of forger protection than a bar.

There is no shortage of bars for sale - should you ASK.

Lemme explain:- at this time, there is a product advertised for sale [here on SS], which is still for sale at my local bullion dealer, and he is selling it > $100 cheaper than the advertised price here.

Now... with this in mind, here is a proposition for you: You state which bars you would like to buy & the quantity, but these must be bars that are still for sale at bullion dealers. (PS: Don't state a price - be fair ). Someone here will then look up the current bullion dealer price, add a commission for themselves, and quote you a price, and you will then purchase the product.

You really can't argue against Pandas as an investment ,compared to say the Tiffany coin I sold
I don't believe in theyre value myself,

That's right.... Just ask....

Got 250 kilos of bars available at the moment 100oz, 5kg and a 15kg monster.

All at Wdavis sell price.

As a newbie, I find supply of bars ebs & flows, ad in a little market confusion and people sit tight.
Be interesting to see if the recent flooding rains affect Ag supply. Three mines who were about to ramp up production have had delays due to flooding.

In terms of sale offers, I can hear the frustration of those selling getting below spot offers. This is an old trick also used in real estate, and yes these low-ballers will come across someone who needs to move bullion. It's a numbers game. Pity they have to do it here.

On the flip side are the people selling bullion for WAY over spot. I've offered on 10oz bars where the asking is $370 when spot is $31 and you can buy from a dealer for $335. I'm in the market to stack for the future, not to be a charity. Dealer got the business.
Personally, and as was said earlier, I compare all prices with other SS members and dealers are selling for, then make an offer (prefer to buy here).
If based on that your bars look over priced, then they are (perception is reality).

BTW, I'm really enjoying this site. Thanks for the info sharing.

I list items less often now as the tone of the forum has changed. Getting sick of dreamers expectations regarding pricing. Better to do repeat trades with people you gave dealt with before.

Generally hard to find a sales post now amongst the mindless banter that the forum has become. Time to delete the general section and increase the moderation.

PE

Whats the general section got to do with buying or selling????

I wish some of you guys would think before you open your mouths.

Did it ever occur to you that people are sitting on bars because they paid alot more?????

You have the worse attitude... Most of your post are fairly aggressive... Time to rethink your attitute!!!

You are probably right, however from the few post I have seen he reflects an unfriendly attitude.

Ha ha... this post did not properly register in my consciousness, before I submitted my contribution. Only $20 extra, my that's cheap. I have the same bars, but as I need to get them shipped to Brisbane before re-selling them, I'm forced to add $35 onto each bar. You're undercutting me, how will I survive?

Goldslackers are $25 above W.Davis price ,I've bought of them when Peter didn't have anything to sell
I don't haggle with bullion ,if your price was say $10 - $20 above the lowest advertised price & they didn't have any in stock
I'd pay the extra, you can't always get bullion at W.Davis prices ,it's nice when you do
How will you survive
1 Work harder
2 Don't speculate by putting all your cash into bullion

Just out of curiosity, is there a big difference in liquidity if your silver bars are say swiss PAMP or SS? Would there be a difference in the price I can sell my bars or the ease of finding buyers between government mint bars or private mint bars?

Dealers will pay spot no matter what brand they are ,some dealers may pay a premium For Pamps with cert's $20-$50
