  • Silver Demand is down, but are Coin Shops STILL buying 1oz Silver Rounds? According to one person that commented on my channel, the answer is NO!
    Of course we're going to verify that information right? So today I called 11 different Coin Shops around the U.S. to find out if THEY are buying Generic 1oz Silver Rounds and what they're paying!

Selling at key points and rebuking when cheaper to add free silver to your stack is awesome!!! I've sold at some amazing times since 2019 and added quite bit of free silver just for holding some of the coin shops silver for a bit.

      @@historyiwitness5915 Here's the reality both for actual LCS, and for us as a mint. Do they want the headache to have to verify the entire worlds hoard of silver and resell it - every niche item? We buy all of our products back, and almost all major market staples. There is a business cost to having to research, verify and flip any items. Some of the big national dealers have entire teams dedicated to this, we don't - yet. Most other mints don't even bother at all. And in terms of selling it to other investors, that's just the best deal in terms of pricing. If you want a permanent 24/7 market, big retailers offer that service, but at a cost. You won't get the best price, but you will get speed. That's just economics. They want to make money, so they'll never pay full price.

      @@ct87gn25 Exactly right but it's not just silver or gold that people screw up when buying it. This happens in the stock market a lot. I remember people bailing out of the
      market in 1986, 2000, 2007-08, and in 2020. My gosh, those were SWEET BUYING OPPORTUNITIES! Those who bailed out at or near a market bottom compounded their
      error by failing to find a new entry point, so never participated in the huge moves upward when the market recovered and surged much higher. I once read a quote that
      read, "If the average man was really smart, he would be rich." While this isn't always the case, it is the case a lot of the time. Getting rich is one of those things that takes
      a lot of time and effort. It's not something that most can do easily or quickly, but it can happen to most who actively pursue it. They can spend a good part of their life in
      the process.

I visited this last Saturday and was surprised to see he only had a couples pieces of graded currency, a few tubes of silver Eagles and rounds, and some 1950’s era collectible baseball cards. When I asked what else he was selling, he replied that they don’t really sell, he only buys. He buys everything, including sterling flatware and service pieces. I looked over the counter and he has silver piled everywhere. So there is at least one buyer in Florida. 👏👏☀️🌴😎

      Your buying in the most expensive way my friend. Stack how you can but your paying high high premiums. It’s Almost better to save if you can. 1 ounce is much less premium but us poor people can’t afford so I stack 1-10th but that’s still a high premium. That’s why we stack silver but really we get robbed on the silver market by the middle men. You can only do well selling to others privately but even then some people try to get more than shops.

      @@SilverSeeker It is a measure of good money management to always pay attention to prices. The price matters with everything we buy, so silver and gold should not be any
      different, IMO. Anyone who buys at any price offered is very likely to get ripped off most of the time and that's a bad thing to happen to anyone. Like a lot of stackers, I set the
      price I'm willing to pay and if silver or gold exceed that price, I stop buying. Instead, I stack fiat and wait for a better price to come along. Been doing this for the past 14 years
      and haven't had a single problem with it because something is on sale most of the time, so just wait until something you like comes on sale and buy it then.
      But I will say that when the next silver squeeze comes along and I can sell silver for a fat premium, I'm going to do that and put the profits from it into more gold. My ASEs and
      Maples will be sold but I will keep the ~1/3 of my stack that is US 90% silver coins as my SHTF barter money. If it's not needed for that, then my kids and grand kids will get it.
      I'm good with it either way.

      One example is how much did gasoline cost in 1964? It was 30 cents per gallon. Let's use the silver quarter for an example that was in ones pocket change in 1964. That quarter is now worth 4.49 cents in fiat dollars. I'm in California, where gasoline is the most expensive price in the US and right now I filled up at 4.499/gallon. So there you are as one example, silver kept its purchasing power. It will hold up on many other common everyday examples as well. Here are two more examples. In 1964 bread was 22 cents and milk was 49 cents. I buy Dave's seeded bread a high quality, organic, more expensive than normal bread and it cost me 4.49. And milk, I don't buy as I avoid dairy, but I can typically buy a half gallon of almond milk for 4.00 and I'm guessing a gallon of milk today is about 4.00. So that silver quarter did maintain its purchasing power.

    Other than selling off all my ugly silver and gold in 2011, I don't plan on selling any of my stack for us federal reserve notes. IF an emergency calls for it, though, my cost averages are so low, I won't care about any perceived "profit or loss".
    Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

    In today's financial market - if you buy silver today you should not buy silver if you plan to sell your silver for dollars. The whole point of silver today is that the US dollar will collapse and on this basis you should expect to use silver for barter or whatever new currency is stablilized.

    Cost averaging comes to mind. If you watch the market daily and try to time your buying on the dips you truly can get the cost of your stack down.

    No channel is for everyone, so people need to stop expecting them to be that, because they are not. That said, Seeker, you have an excellent channel IMO and I have learned some things
    and been very well entertained by what you present to us viewers. It's not as if watching your videos costs us anything. Some people act as if you OWE them something when you do not.
    If this viewer is so great himself, he should start a channel and do it better than you do. HA! Not happening. lol
    As for needing a $40 silver price to "break even", I am ROTFLMAO. I bought most of my stack when silver was $14-$15 an oz. and the premiums were $2-$2.50 an oz. My breakeven price
    is WELL below $40 or even $34 as some suggest. But then, timing does enter into this. Anyone who bought very recently doesn't have the fat price cushion that I do. This is the way it is
    with buying many assets. The early adopters have a big advantage over the late comers. Do I need to apologize for getting into silver earlier than some others? No, I don't and I'm not
    going to do that because there are people who got into silver much earlier than I did and have even more profit potential than I have... and GOOD FOR THEM! I am happy for them and
    the great example they set.

    I think your argument that it's better to buy rounds over eagles is also proven in this video. I think you showed a buy back spread of $1.65 on average. I forgot already. I think the retail seller will have a greater spread between rounds and eagles when selling them to the public, on average. You've already gone over this, but, you just did a very good test case.

    I've always done well in both the silver and gold markets because #1) I never sell to dealers, only retail buyers via eBay #2) I realize that the markets are manipulated by the Big Boys, so I trade accordingly(I sell when they pump it and buy when they dump it) #3) I've developed an objective way to determine when the price is high or low, and 4) I make trades based on a reliable system to time my entries and exits. If you don't have a proven system for buying and selling then your trades/timing will be random and lead to disappointment. Just know that when you sell to a dealer you are paying for his expenses and profits - don't do that!

    (Washington state, South side of Seattle)..... I occasionally go to my local shop just to keep up appearances so they see my face and get used to seeing me in case I ever did need to sell silver and I'll take some junk silver or something I don't really care about and I'll sell like an ounce or two or a couple of Dimes or something.. Long story short, they are offering 1.50 over on ASE.. Spot on rounds unless they are certain ones, they have a list on the wall for that.. But what surprised me was the lady who runs the place has a thing for britannia's or British silver in general and Krugerrands, she offered me 2.50 over on them... Guess she was low and needed to stock up, and I made her day by selling her a tube of each ( hopefully it scored me some brownie points for the future😂)... I just turned around and got some more silver form SD bouillon and made a few bucks to get some %90 silver with 😋...

    One thing to remember is that coin shops may tell you one thing over the phone but when you arrive in person they may tell you something else.

I have one shop that I trust and have developed a relationship based on trust.
