HSN has a 1oz round silver Barbie proof for only 99.98.
That is so crazy. Who is gonna pay that for 1 oz of silver?

I had someone just pay $159.00 for a very nice proof I had on the bay... So there are a lot of people paying big money for 1toz...
If it makes them happy, its ok with me... I know I have 2 proofs coming my way that I paid $84 ea for... Of course 1 will be sold and the other will have cost 40ish by the time I am done...
I'm happy with it... |

| The people who buy that stuff are not buying it for the silver content. They're buying it for the novelty. |

I think the HSN stuff is way overpriced. but my 5 year old wants the 50 state quarters that are covered in 24k gold for $85 plus 8.95 shipping.
what is that...about $2 each |

| Maybe someone who collects barbie memorabilia that'd be something they'd want. |

Those quarters did look pretty cool. I think it would have been a nice touch to have something printed on the outside of the box, though. |

Are these the ones that come in their own red oak presentation box and individual air-tite holders? I remember Mike Meezak saying something about this during his sales pitch. |

This one really kills me.
Mike Meezak and HSN are really trolling for a sucker with this offer.

I bought 2 (two) of these exact 10 oz Morgan bars from APMEX in May of this year for $129.95 each plus shipping ($19.95). |
