Wellll, if they can buy it for $260/oz, like I can, then turn around and sell it to you for $392, then pretty soon we're talking real money. Granted, mine is an extreme case, but the precious metals refineries take as much as a 10% cut when you send in Aunt Bessie's bracelet for cash. Like so many other things, the money to be made in gold is not in the holding, it's in the trading.

You can buy it for $260/oz when the "market value" is $392? Man, I'm in the wrong business!
