I wanted 3 x 1kg silver bars, and had my heart set on the Umicores. To me they just looked like the perfect silver bar. Then, just two days ago, I saw the new 9Fine bars that Atkinsons got in stock, and wow, they look even better, very chunky and really shiny but still with a poured look. So I got the presentation pack of those. 10 mins later and the packs were sold out.

Umicores do look "just right!" - just had a quick refernce look at the 9fine you mention hmm "nice" - you should post up picks of them when you receive them - Good on yer

Did you pay £500/kg?

Just under, £1486 for the pack.

[Roy]

Would you like to buy more at that price?

I could sell you lots of them. Could source more too ?

[Steviesteve]

Ill post picks when I get them, there are a couple of Youtube vids on them, in fact I think 3 vids in total... I watched them!

Thanks, that's a nice offer. But for now I don't plan on getting any more at 1kg. I'd like some 500g, but I don't know if 9Fine make them, Atkinsons didn't list any.

[Roy]

No problem. I can do 500g @ £260?

I'm getting envious right now LOL

 

[Steviesteve]

Nice, I'll have 3. Unless you can do 4 for 1k??

[Roy]

4 x 500g for £1000?

[Steviesteve]

lol, no, 4 x 500g for £1000

Sorry, got myself mixed up there!

 

[Roy]

Yes, I'll honour that but I think you need to have a cooling off period.

Nobody on this forum will pay that.

If you want to spend it, I'll accept it.

[Steviesteve]

Well thats like getting a 500g bar for £250,  can't see where I could get that any cheaper...

 

[Roy]

Spend some time researching,

Look back through the sales posts on here. You'e a Gold Member, enjoy it!

Silver is £370/kg my friend.

I can't rip you off. 

[MickD]

Nice one Roy, wondered where that was going, to your credit.

[Steviesteve]

ok will do, but I'd only buy things that I like the look of, which is why I bought the 9Fine and not some generic RMC etc. Also got some hand poured bars on order. Some things are worth a premium if you're going to keep and be proud of your collection, it's not purely the melt value.

Yes, it is

Hmmm, not sure that would work for many hobbies, can't see a stamp collector only buying Penny Blacks, or a wine connoisseur only drinking the same label...

I remember someone predicting GSR 100 -1 before things turned around. I am not sure we will see that, looks to be dollar related more than metals driven.

I think we could still see 87-88 for a 2.3 standard deviation move. 

100 GSR would be almost 4 SDs away.

I'm buying more heavily. But that was always my plan anyway. 

I have already maxed out the overpayment on my mortage this year, so I have the spare cash for the next 3 months.

50oz added yesterday, 112oz so far this month.

Still have money on the sidelines. I do advocate the steady buying cost-avg strategy, but my strategy also includes the flexibility to make a few discretionary buys each year when I think the market is very oversold. 

Most of my money was destined to finally complete on my mortgage in the next 12 months, but if prices stay THIS low, I will seriously have to  think about reprioritising and increasing my PMs allocation.

[knighthawk]

Price seems to be slowly increasing again.

No idea what that means but good for people that got their orders in at the low point.

[Pipers]

Silver bullion has not dropped in proportion to the price this time!   Britannia's are 24% above spot now

Where are you seeing these prices?!  Or is that ex-VAT?

Think that's European mint, but converted to sterling

Yep looks like you're right.  So get it through a group order and add on a bit of postage, its probably still pretty cheap?
