That said though, I only wish I'd of jumped back in last week. I did go up to the shop I frequent and they didn't have any available at the time

well what was over spot 3 days ago is now spot or above.

Simple reason for that.
The big wholesale houses are not selling into these prices.
The word I have is silver will have to get back to $18 to $18.50 before they will open the vaults.
In the meantime, they have laid off employees and are just waiting it out. What's out there has come from weak hands and it's just a trickle.
With only 5% or less of silver being available for investment, there really wasn't much to begin with. The wholesalers are in for the prices we had at that last spike as they are constantly moving inventory. They don't have anything they paid $6.50 for, or even $14 for that matter.
$18 or very close is the key and the end of the massive premums along with available investor silver again.
