I went by my favorite coin shop 2 weeks ago. He had a tray of mixed 1 oz silver bars and rounds with Christmas dates in the past. I cared only about purchase by weight. I was able to purchase 38 oz @ $16/oz. It was $3.50 over spot. In better times, I purchased 20 oz tubes for $1 over spot. The shop has sold many thousands of rounds in recent weeks.

In the past, I dealt with Silvertowne. Paid via PayPal. Usually purchased in increments of 20 oz tubes. Much less of that since my wife's diabetic supplies started soaking up much of our "disposable" income.

Sounds like you made that last investment, just before the prices really started going up. Silver eagles led 90% silver coins buy several weeks, rounds/bars were sure to follow. I've only ever collected eagles and 90% coins.

If this market manipulations finally comes to an end, we might get to see an actual fair market price for our investment.

We Are Exceptional People
MARCH 30, 2020 BLIND GOSSIP

[Blind Gossip] Let’s say you have an Instagram account.

Let’s say you are also fortunate enough to have a lot of followers.

What happens if you have to move to a new Instagram account? Will Instagram move your followers to your new account?

The answer is “No.”

We stopped doing that a couple of years ago. Now we tell users to simply put a note on their old account instructing followers to follow them at their new account.

This married celebrity couple is in exactly that situation right now. They need boost their social media numbers as fast as possible to start making money.

So they are not taking no for an answer!

We were contacted by their representative asking us to make an exception in their case. Their argument was that this was an exceptional couple in an exceptional circumstance and that it would be to Instagram’s benefit to do this.

We don’t know if Instagram will comply.

But my, my, my! Someone is certainly full of me me me exceptionalism!

Of course the couple will deny it.

In their new, “independent” lifestyle, they would never ask anyone else to fund them… or protect them… or make any kind of exception for them!

What? All three?

Never mind.
