With silver hitting a good price last weekend I was wondering how many of you brought silver or not or are you waiting for a bigger drop. I pick up some 90 and 40%.

Even though the spot price has come down, somebody forget to tell all the sellers... It looks like the bidders on ebay didn't get the message either. 
I bought some before the holidays when it made a pull back in the low $17 range. I was scoring some deals on ebay in the mid $16 range at the time. Not much of a deal now...

still waiting to buy.
partly for lack of availability, partly for lack of cash

| Picked up 20 one oz. private label rounds from Northwest Territorial Mint today at spot+1.30 for total of $16.78 each (wish I had done it Friday). Nice thing for me is no shipping - I live 20 minutes from them and always will-call. They don't have the minimum 50 oz. order for walk-ins :) |

| Bought some 90% and a 5 oz bar. My dad and I agreed that I would pay him 80% of the spot price on friday for the silver in his coin collection. :) so I picked up another 23 oz in 90% at 12.12 an ounce. |

I bought a roll of 1967 dollars for $175 and it came with a free 1967 "Diving Goose" dollar.
I plan on picking up some Canadian .500 (1968) Q's and D's for 4.5 times face soon if the price stays down. |

| Participated in Nate's Lydian group buy and just got a 10 ounce Engelhard bar on Ebay last night for $160 shipped (using multiple rebates). Chaching! |
Just my two cents! |

Bought a tube, a sheet and a couple of 1 ouncers in the Lydian Group Buy. Bought a lot of Walkers and silver quarters at prices ranging from 10x to 10.5x in the coin club auction tonight. Even got an XF Morgan for $16 and a 68 Mexican Olympics piece in original mint packaging for $8. Does this mean silver will go down again tomorrow?  |

| By the amount that everyone brought silver I would have to say that silver should go up. But the question is will it stay up. |

| Picked some 90% up for 9.8X. The coin dealer is a little strange and always sells below melt. |

Sounds like the right type of deal slick!
I did not buy, I also have not sold anything lately at the high points. if AG went to $14.00, i'd be tempted to buy some again. |

| If I could spare the dough, I would be backing up the truck at $15. Anything under $20 after premiums and taxes is a good price in my book. |

Most of us play the odds that silver will go up. I like to see it like a pendulum, which makes buying at any price difficult for me.
Back the truck up...not quite my style. |

| Bought a group of rosies for 10x face which I thought was pretty good. I was hoping it would stay down a little longer. |

| I still love Bing cashback. Just got 50 ounces of Engelhard silver (four 10 ouncers and ten 1 ouncers) for $15.19 an ounce delivered. Cashback was instant and is already in my Paypal account. |

| I don't change my silver buying habits based on the market, though I check the COMEX every day. Steady as she goes for me. |
