Appears that the Secular Bear Market in Gold is
still in tact. XAU hit a new 52-week low ...

» Oaktoad - Question on bullion sales

A friend of mine who lives out of the country asked me to hold 300 ounces (three bars, 100 ounces each) of silver for him.

He is coming to the USA in a couple of weeks and wants me to sell this for him.

Where can I go in the Bay Area and not get screwed??

I know there are fees, commissions and spread, but have no idea what is reasonable???

Any help would be appreciated.

I know for a fact that here in Chicago dealers
will PAY 'spot price' for Silver Bars (100oz).

In your case since you are only talking about
$1,500.00, this should be a 'CASH' transaction.

-Thanks

» Oaktoad - Is there a place where I can see price charts for

silver and gold for the last 20 years. Preferably back to 1979.

Doesn't have to be too big, but I would just like to see just how volatile the prices have been.

Thanks for any help and the help that I have already received..

In the Bay Area, 100 ounce bars don't get spot, more like spot less 35-40 cents.

» Whirlwind - selling silver

Try e-bay. www.ebay.com

Waiting for silver to hit the high point of its range at 5.60 or so would be wise. I doubt it would fall much from here.
