Why go on eBay when it is cheaper on APMEX?

Only buy at flea market for cash. No electronic record.

Delivery. Whether it's Apmex, JM Bullion, whomever, they all seem to be lagging several weeks or more on delivery. Ebay sellers almost always have it in stock to sell, or they get crucified in their seller ratings.

Silver will break someday... maybe not 2021 but at some point it will snap.

1. I can tell you are not into metals much.
First, nobody in their right mind uses Apmex much because of the new-ish tax laws.

You can do a MUCH better price from a smaller firm out of state.

2. Have you seen their prices?

3. How would you pay? Credit card @ $3,525.00?

4. I am aware EBAY taxes you as well. See #1.

The price is over 27 an ounce, and I heard at one time 7 over spot price, but I think that's higher now. So I think 100 ounce bar around 3500 - 3800. Just a guess.

Never buy gold or silver on Ebay.

Yep. Check "sold" listings.
Pay attention to the dates.

Funny... All the big players sell on EBAY.

I paid 7 over a few years ago. That seems to be the going rate.. it almost proves the market is manipulated. They don’t want you owning physical so they make it very unattractive to the average user.

There is a 100oz. bar on craigslist here for 3400, still too much.

But people are buying.

Some are saying they will never deliver at this point..

If they hold the stock, they will get even more for it if this continues.

Been for sale for over a week now. JMB is cheaper and besides 100oz. bars are stupid because it will be to close to or over the tax reporting limit when you sell it.

$10k?


Anyway, think outside the box.
Can't give advice beyond that.

Ya, so when you buy a gold coated magnesium bar you have no proof of purchase.

Here’s what you have to realize. If you buy at 7 over spot, you can also sell at 7 over spot... at least that’s what I noticed years ago. And so after seeing that I figured I would just bit the bullet and go with a registered dealer instead of eBay for some security. All went well, no complaints and still 2 years later it seems I can turn around and sell for 7 over spot.

I think that’s just how physical works. Idk

Chingo chongo wants to sell his fake gold

Magnesium is too light.
If one knew anything, the weight would tip them off immediately.

Good observation. I remember paying a 20% commission when I bought mine. This was around 2005 or so. Through a dealer in Minneapolis.

Been buying from EBAY for many years. Never have been burned, yet. Knock on wood.

I do multiple tests on each piece, even from dealer direct sites as there have been bars sold from physical shops in NYC that were fake. Drilled out and tungsten rods inserted.

LOL good luck finding anything on there EVER again

Go to r/WallStreetSilver on the R site

FUCK OFF

PSLV is being manipulated by shorts. It is now "hard to borrow", which means bankers are willing to pay interest to borrow YOUR SHARES and short sell them with the promise of buying back your shares later. Here is what you need to do.

If you own a large amount of PSLV like I do, place an order to sell your shares at a price of like $500 per share. Make sure the order is "good 'til cancelled" so it stays open indefinitely. Once your shares are tied to an open order, they can no longer be lent to banks to be shorted. This will drive up the "hard to borrow" interest rates further, making it more painful for banks to short $PSLV.

Thanks for playing.

I have bought and sold silver on ebay and NEVER had any issue. Look at the sellers ratings fool.
