Hey there forum,

 

I have been purchasing $100 monthly of generic silver and premium silver while also tracking the disparities. I thought this information would be beneficial to you all!

Hi, great project there 👍  I'm wondering though, when you work out the current "selling price" at the end of each quarter do you take into account the costs of selling (ebay fees, packaging, postage if offered free, etc.) and just use the net figure?

I am looking at many factors...Ebay does have a strong "what has it sold for" option without shipping and this way it is closer to the pin of what someone is willing to pay... Of corse it is somewhat subjective over time but each quarter I try to get as close to an average as I can. I would say there could be a couple dollar swing but that is also why in the generic I assume spot price as the value which is a buffer as most of the time, you age going to get a little under spot when selling generic.
