Here in the UK it's a major rip off much worse than in the USA, you moan you can't get ASE's near spot, most places are selling for the equivalent of $21-30 it's crazy, for a few years now all physical silver has been crazy prices above spot

| I wont pay more than $1-$1.50 over spot for these. They are nice but not my preferred form of silver due to the premiums. |

All the Eagles I have, roughly 40 of them are averaged out at $12.90. Bought them during APMEX's 12 days of Chritsmas sale back in December...pretty hppy to now own Eagles below spot ;)

Question is if you can even get them for $1-1.50 over spot. If you do, please tell me your source. I highly doubt you can get them for such a minimal premium but who knows |

I have quite a few times through Craigslist purchases (of which I have done over 25 individual purchases over the past year). Occassionally my main dealer is in a good mood and will do them for about $2-$2.50 over spot, but that's a rarity and that's the lowest I see through "normal" channels. |
