Silver price spread

Silver is sitting around AUD $131/oz, yet the lowest‑priced round on Bullion Now, traditionally the Perth Mint Kangaroo is now roughly $30 above spot. This is the first time I’ve seen the premium stretch this far. It raises the question: is the gap between spot and physical no longer just a theoretical spread, and will we see silver trade closer to spot again?

What surprises me more is that the same markup per oz is applied for larger coins too. I mean the difference between buy and sell for a kilo coin is now $800!

This can only be possible if buyers are willing to pay this much over spot - so the buying demand must be there I guess.
I would expect when the price trend eventually turns down, people will lose interest and all the bullion dealers now making bank will be competing with each other for business again.
