[@Stonezster]

I sold over 500oz of silver in December before the price rise and I don't regret it. I had the opportunity to buy a house for cash. My stack was to big to move around with me and it made me nostalgic whenever I'd pull it out...Now I have no rent and I don't care that the price has risen because I'm far better off.

[@limbuel]

Now could be once an a life time selling opportunity.

[@Stonezster]

@@limbuel It was definatly easy to sell last December. I sold it in a local sales site and for the next week people rang daily and paid full premium for what I had.

[@limbuel]

@@Stonezster Good deal! Keep ranking in that profit.

[@trumpwon2240]

I'm stacking for a house and look forward to the day I cash out all my metal for my home.

[@louisstennes3]

I did the same thing to buy an oceanfront vacation condo and in 8 years since purchase my equity has increased nearly 200 thousand dollars. The money from my precious metals sale, added to my cash made this possible. There is a time to buy and a time to sell and a time to pass it to your heirs. I still have quite a bit as I rebuilt some precious metals since then.

[@Chewee394]

Was forced by my siblings to sell my dads coin collections once my he passed. Wish I could have kept it, but debt is an issue for my siblings. I did get more than expected, so I picked up a few ounces of silver to make up the difference and keep the tradition going.

[@edb3877]

When I work on my estate plans, I want to be sure that my PMs go to my son, who very much appreciates the need to stack and hold PMs outside the financial system. My daughter, on the other hand, it totally oblivious to this need and would sell them ASAP to get cash to spend. Because of this, she will get more cash than he gets but he will get the metals. This will go to my wife first but she knows where I want it to go from her estate. I know that I cannot hold her to this with legal means but this is more in the realm of honoring a final wish from a beloved spouse after many years of devotion and caring. She will do as I ask with this and there really isn't any reason for her not to do this. We have more than sufficient assets to support her comfortably for the rest of her life and to pass some on to our kids and grandkids.

[@alldayeveryday2180]

how much

[@pattiaustin1808]

I inherited many pounds of silver. Not life-changing money but certainly life-enhancing. I am only too happy to put it in the hands of people who will value it, but I do not want mine melted down. I’d think collectors might appreciate that.

[@RubberCityRebel]

[@pouglwaw5932]

Me neither. My silver feels a lot safer than the numbers in a bank account, not to mention the imminent digital conversion that will make currency obsolete. They can't do that with silver or gold

[@mrmaggoo35]

I converted the majority of my bank accounts to precious metals a year ago. No more stocks, no more bonds, no more cash. It happened in increments. Post Brandon my stocks tanked, converted to bonds.... Bonds tanked, converted to cash.... Inflation began, converted to metals . 2/3 of my stack is my "savings account" storing my wealth for the future. 1/3 is "cash on hand" being held in metals to protect its value. For example today I sold several ozs at a 13% premium over last year to buy tires out of my "cash on hand" stack. My stack had served it's purpose of maintaining monetary value against inflation.

[@deepcoder1845]

the dollar is at a 20 year high under dark brandon...go to a business channel and educate yourself. The BRIC countries are all 3rd world countries except China. Problem with china is the yuan is less than 3% of world reserves (65% for the dollar) and the Chinese do NOT let the yuan float so it will NEVER replace the dollar.

[@pttthhh]

@@edb3877 I'd like to hear this as well

[@mcyolicjones9081]

​@@edb3877 Not only did the metal quickly increase in value it exchanged for cash quicker at a shop than any other item exchange or even a bank withdraw. They whipped that stuff right out with a smile.. it was then I knew what I had. I was just a kid with a few eagles but it turned out I'd timed things right on top of that. The house also quickly more than doubled in value. Sell, rinse, repeat.. If I'd banked my earnings instead of buying metal my dollars would have only lost value.

[@robmcdonnell1]

I just sold some regular silver rounds today for $28 each in Maryland. I thought that was reasonable. I sold most of mine back like 10 years ago when silver was pushing $50 an ounce. I had a feeling that price wouldn't last and I was right. I would think that the obvious answer as to why people sell silver is "because they need the money". There isn't always a long term, deeply thought out financial approach to selling things. You sell what you have when you need money.

[@wesleyt4109]

So are you getting that same feeling again? You think price is ready to head south or what?

[@robmcdonnell1]

@@wesleyt4109 No, not really. There was just something else I wanted to buy and I had a stack of rounds. I'm always on the lookout for them. Bought a bunch a few years back when the price was hovering around $15 an ounce. Since the pandemic, it seems the price is pretty stable around the $25 range for the foreseeable future. It slipped below $20 last year so I was more than happy to get $28 for them today.

My son at 15 is the only one who knows how much I have, my wife didn't realize why I bought so i kept it under the radar

[@handduggraverdronline]

Lol say bye bye to that

[@edb3877]

Every relationship needs to be done in a way that works best for the people involved. My wife does not know how big my stack is but she does know that I have bought gold and silver for several years. I stack because neither my wife nor my daughter understand the need for stacking. A lot of what I have is for them. Maybe not to be received as metals but the asset is there for its use in case of need. My son gets it, so a good share of the metals will go to him. Unfortunately, he and his wife decided not to have any kids, so whatever he gets will not be passed down to the next generation. This complicates the situation somewhat. 😕

[@brandons7272]

​@Ed B oh that's awesome and a shame at the same time 🙁

[@tomtharos4440]

Same here, my son is the only one who knows exactly, but I have a couple of silver bars and some small gold coins on my desktop. My wife see it, but doesn’t understand what it is.

I have sold a little bit of gold at one time and was asked why I was saling it and I just told him I was up on it. My personal reason for saling it was as much as his business as a bank wanting to know why I'm withdrawing. I had bought them from him and his shop along with the majority of my stack.

[@ssl3546]

Banks will absolutely ask why you are withdrawing large amounts of cash because they have to report it. Coin dealers are always worried about getting robbed or ripped off -- they look you over before they unlock the door etc. Being nasty is not a good way to go.

[@brycethomas6080]

@ssl3546 Obviously your speaking of an amount I don't keep in the bank because I have never been questioned with taking out a thousand or two thousand dollars. I don't let my savings accumulate in currency that's designed to depreciate and rob everyone.

One morning he walked his dog over a mile and followed it and it went to a massive vagina looking crack about 8 feet long and on each side of it is 10 feet wide silver vein coming from under ground it splits of 2,000 different spots and the bottom end goes onto his property. He he owns a water filtration company and he's got hige pumps to pump up water amd filters it for the locals, he's said there's MASSIVE DUMP TRUCKS FULL!! He talked to the owner about the end of the vein on his property and he was going to jack hammer it and melt some down for his family and they went on the maps and spray painted a line over the vein and he said have at it lol he said he even moved the line over a foot extra so he can have that much more to avoid any conflict and to be cool, he said he's not mining it until silver gets over $100 an oz....Colorado has a Mountain FULL of silver and the neighboring town and houses voted against leveling the mountain because there is that much silver in that mountain, they made a road into this mountain the entrance thats 40 feet wide and 10 feet tall and are mining this mountain where it doesnt get demolished, Mexico has mountains full of it!!! I own several silver and gold mines and they are lying about Silver being like 80 ounces per 1 oz of gold, I see all the drill tests!!!! Its more like 900 ounces of silver for 1 oz of Gold!!!! Gold miners are switching to mining silver because Gold bearing ground is becoming more and more rare!!!!

I only have 2 reasons why I might want to sell some silver: 1) to sell off some things that no longer fit well with my overall approach to stacking; or 2) to get some cash for an additional gold purchase. I have other assets that I can use for most any unexpected bills or other problems that could be fixed via the use of some extra cash. Other than these two reasons, I am holding onto my silver stack for the foreseeable future. I do have some 5-oz. SilverTowne Prospector bars that are pretty cool for those who like bars that I want to sell. This would be 200 ozs. of silver and I would definitely be using the cash from that to buy some 1/4 oz. gold coins, either Maples or Britannias. Yes, I know about the higher per oz. premiums on fractional gold but want the flexibility they offer in case I don't want to sell a whole oz. at a time. The extra cost of the Britannias is fairly low when compared to Maples and especially to Eagles.

[@hiataki7]

In reference to the last part of the interview, if you have to sell some of your collection, hold onto your junk silver last if you can. From what I'm seeing it has the highest buyback price over spot.

[@edb3877]

From what I am seeing, ASEs have a significantly higher premium than do US 90% silver coins... about double, in fact. But I do agree that US 90% silver coins also have gone way up in premium cost compared to what they were a decade ago when I was buying them for my stack.

Funny this video came out the day I sold $40 face of halves and a 1/4 oz gold eagle. I'm a total contrarian - I bought when no one wanted the stuff and I'm selling because I've got a lot and a small amount to sell is really no biggie for me. I want to keep my cash high as I think the risk to the banks is real and I don't want to be selling my gold or silver when everyone else is selling - that won't be helpful and probably will drive prices at the local level down.... but that's just my opinion.

[@edb3877]

That's just as good as anyone else's opinion. 👍 I don't share that opinion but that's OK. The world is a really big place and there is plenty of room for many points of view. Thanks for posting that, though. It's good to read about what others are doing with their stacks and why they are doing it. I'd like to make a substantial gold buy sometime soon and a price pull-back would be quite helpful with that. 🙂

@@edb3877 I think we accumulated at the same price...so you know what I'm saying

[@Portlandpreciousmetals]

When the banking crises began we were flooded with orders and the order sizes were mush larger than usual. Premiums on the the most popular products like buffalo rounds went up I think 3 times by at least $.25/oz in about a 2 week time frame and delivery dates have been pushed further and further out. Once the spot price hit $26 and premiums increased to where you have to pay almost $30/oz we saw demand drop off a cliff. Volumes are are picking up again but people don't want to wait a month or more to get delivery which could play a role as well. I believe everyone is waiting for the Feds interest rate meeting this Weds. Regardless of price though supply just isn't readily available. Any demand shock like the silver squeeze or more bank failures will in my prediction wipe out existing inventories and premiums will go up and wait times will increase. This will especially be true if the spot price drops in any significant way. There are a lot of buyers waiting for the dip. Grow your stack!

Sad stories coming!

[@jaynawilliams8923]

We just lquidated 100% of our silver holding and 40% of our gold holdings, retaining 60% of our gold and the rest in cash. The reason we did this is we believe that the FED is about to raise rates by .25 twice and that gold , which has made a massive triple top with a falling RSI and Volume, will plummet creating a re-entry point into the physical metals market some time after summer.

[@ColtonJohnsonBrice09]

👍👍

[@adam111ism]

what time frame are you seeing the tripple top on?

[@nunya7764]

Quite a bold prediction

[@jaynawilliams8923]

@Jonn Phann It's on the gold chart on any platform

[@shufflesilver]

​@Jonn Phann Dollar cost averaging is a solid approach for new stackers. Look it up if you are not familiar with it

[@GTAGoldSilver]

so the coin shop owner wants to know why people are selling silver to him because he is afraid it could be stolen, but if that lady or customer who bought from him in the past and now wants to sell it back to him, does he still need to know the reason why they are selling it? it's nosy to want to know why people want to sell their PMs. Ask him this next time, about customers that bought it from him and decides to sell it back to him in the future, will he wants to know the reason why they sell it back to him? I don't like to give any reason why I am selling my PMs when it comes time to sell.

Good info. Bye the way, you dont have to say your going to ask a question before you ask a question. Just ask.

[@MERRLINN]

Why go to a dealer? You will come out much better on your own

[@hdcsp3]

On your own to who? Where? Sincere question...thanks

[@edb3877]

Yes, you can... IF you are very careful about it. One can get robbed or worse if they are not careful.

How can anyone possibly afford those prices??? We live in the burbs of Phoenix and those homes sell for $650,000 here 🎉

You forgot the 5th D, Drugs 😉

[@PapaKryptoss]

I went to Katy Coins here in Texas and they had a lot of silver to sell. Many Libertads, Maples, and of course ASE. Must just be certain locations that are running out. Katy Coins is in the greater Houston area

[@pouglwaw5932]

How about the price? High premiums would keep the silver stock from selling.

[@billmase2458]

I sold silver to buy more gold, i love gold

[@gordon2K]

Great interview, insights, and guest. Sound like a great and honest coin dealer. Interview him again.

[@arte9855]

The only PM's I have been buying lately are vintage piece. Overpaying for some but that happens sometimes. If the time comes to sell my hooe is someone else will like to pay more than I did.

[@stevekamitsis1327]

Seeker this is Steve in Florida caught your video and enjoyed it thank you for doing it ya the times are making some people sell their silver things food and groceries and living supplies are just so expensive I think push people to sell so far for me I have been able to keep my stack

[@wayneburbrink1215]

Got lucky again 2 rolls of dimes for 190 all in higher than usual but o well , gotta slow down soon lol

[@dane3038]

Thanks for addressing one of my questions, Seeker. I still have doubts about the price changing between the phone and the actual transaction. He didn't say anything about the condition. I know there is a price difference between "Retail Friendly" silver and not. My LCS told me "scratched and not-scratched". He seemed annoyed by the question and suddenly less friendly and too busy to continue the conversation. That was the first time I called him not to ask about inventory and make a purchase. In those cases, he was more friendly and had more time. I've been working the collectible market most of my life and I never see stacks go on the market. I see vintage Dungeons and Dragons being sold off on ebay by families of someone who passed all the time. Other stuff too. I never see someone's silver stack go up though. Only dealers and flippers. What does this mean? I've never heard a stacker talk about selling at a profit. Stackers don't sell. I've never walked into my LCS and seen an over-the-counter buy either. I know my sister went to a coin show with her half of the silver inheritance and got SKINNED. But I'm not supposed to know that. Shame she didn't come to me for help with that. I guess the only way I'll be convinced is to sell off half my stack, but I don't want to do that for the same reasons that other stackers don't want to sell. I enjoy my stack and I'm afraid of finding out the truth. If you're reading this, enjoy your stack, but have a well-thought-out and maybe even tested exit strategy. And a few ounces is not an effective test.

There’s a coin dealer in Ludington. He’s a good guy, but his 90% premium was high. And this was a year ago

[@Grandassets]

all my friends are selling down too, but we are selling our other metals first silver is next, I am a scraper so we get a lot of short steel, Alum, Brass and copper the economy just sucks to we have to sell just to keep our head above water and not lose anything I have seen a lot of friends paying off their house and car, F*** credit cards they are unsecured debt ....

[@braddeicide]

Silver highs never hold, makes sense to sell now and buy it back later for cheaper

[@philipmorgan5500]

If you live in a state that doesn't tax the profits off of money i.e. eagles and junk, as long as you maintain a core position, take some money off the table.

[@handduggraverdronline]

Its not like this everywhere

We may see a sharp decline soon, it's not a bad time to sell. Same with gold at $2,050.
