Who's buying Gold?

I bought most of my bullion end of 2008/early 2009. I have not bought any gold since it topped $900 and doubt I will unless I catch a deal.

However, I have been buying a little silver around $17-$17.25. I like US silver coins and have got some amazing deals recently.

 

May I ask where you get amazing deals on silver?

 

Bargaining, negotiating and scanning of the bullion markets. I put some low bids on bulliondirect, sometimes they get hit.

 

Are there any "bad" auctions on EBAY where you might "pick off" some underpriced silver?

 

Yes, it happens.

I still find the best deals outside the online marketplaces, however.

 

too funny if true ... I read on the web just now that

for 2009 ...

-garlic has beaten gold in investment returns- ( in china )

- turmeric has beaten gold in investment returns- ( in india )

 

I've heard through the grapevine that my cousin's friend's girlfriend's mother's sister's old schoolmate is buying.

But I don't know how reliable this information is.

 

i've been hearing more and more not so sophisticated investors chatting about gold's value and safety...

I've been long gold since the 560's and this is the first time i've heard the newbish chatter... My bullish attitude is cooling...

 

So are you selling? Do you have any physical you are getting rid off?
