What are people generally paying over spot?

[-j-p-shmorgan]

6-7 USD over spot (including postage). The cheapest I can buy in my country. (When I am lucky and do not pay aditoonal 45% customs fee and taxes).

Dang! UK is pretty bad too from what I've heard.
Wait for that $8 silver my friend!!!!!

I'm in the UK and yes Silver is taxed here so always inflated. Buying overseas is a gamble... Sometimes lucky and it's not requested but has to be factored. I collect a lot of pored coin sets so always way over spot. For billion I find 10oz coins are more satisfying than a block.

I bought one of those 2 oz "No prey, no pay" pirate coins for $42 from a local dealer. I know that is much over spot but I wanted one for my collection. Too bad they don't make an airtite that fits (the coin is FAT).

Here is what they look like.

I buy cast 1 kg bars, my dealer is about 10 minutes from my home and she is never out of stock. I pay $1.40 over spot which is the cheapest I can find in Queensland. I experimented with trading and selling a year ago when I first started stacking just to see how it all works.

is that for a kg silver bar?

Just interested to know what other people are paying over spot, also keen to know what the facination is with silver coins?

In case you need to liquidate some Silver, it is better to have some coins around rather than dropping a Kilo or 10 Oz. It's Like tying to sell a house, you can't sell one brick at a time.

I have to disagree, I had no problem selling single or multiple bars a year a go when I was experimenting with how the whole silver selling thing works. I got spot price for all of them.

True. People love to buy a rising commodity.

Sorry, I meant when a person needs quick small cash and does not want to sell a whole bar.
