So whos buying?

akuracy503 · April 5, 2011 2:20PM

I noticed the BST thread has been a bit quiet, is anyone thinking about stacking?
My local B&M said for every seller there are 2 buyers in line.

dontippet · April 5, 2011 2:58PM

Just bought my first AGE today. With this purchase, I doubled my gold holdings, so I am definitely buying.

morgantype · April 5, 2011 3:22PM

I still am a buyer. I am long on both gold and silver.

I figure what the hell, let's see how the next 25 -40 years go!

Meltdown · April 5, 2011 3:47PM

I bought a complete AU/BU dansco set of Franklins this afternoon for melt... Flashy and full of luster... $510.
I love full weight 90% silver.

Justacommeman · April 5, 2011 4:22PM

I'm still a buying fool. What a surreal trip this has been so far. MJ

CaptMorgan · April 5, 2011 4:42PM

I'm buying hard until $50 an ounce, then taking a breather. 90% only, mostly Morgan and Peace $1's

ksammut · April 5, 2011 8:52PM

Still buying. 90% and bars.

delistamps · April 5, 2011 9:33PM

I've bought gold and silver stocks. IAU and SIL. Cheap transactions, no S&H. Gone in seconds once I decide to sell.

goingbroke · April 5, 2011 9:48PM

Soon I will be selling some of my gold I have 2 extra rolls of 1/10 ounce coin and some 20 gram name brand gold bars. When the time is right that is! I figure these small coins will sell easier with the high gold prices. Not everyone can afford to load up with 1oz gold coins at these prices.

OPA · April 5, 2011 9:53PM

Only selective items which historically have carried a 10%+ premium over melt.

dontippet · April 5, 2011 10:07PM

<< Only selective items which historically have carried a 10%+ premium over melt. >>

Me too. That's why I couldn't pass up the AGE at under melt.

PreTurb · April 5, 2011 11:15PM

I'm not buying, but trading 90% silver for gold.

I still have a set of raw Franklins to sell that belong to my brother (meltdown, you likely remember his eclectic collection from some of the OFR BST offerings). The coins are 63-64, some FBLs. Anyway, he paid seven hundred for it. Told him that nobody wants to buy it...I have tried! I guess someday if silver continues its rocket ride, someone might want the collection for melt!

CoinCoins · April 5, 2011 11:41PM

i *can't believe* how crazy the market has been.......................... w-o-w. $40 an ounce????

a YEAR AGO i had several 100's of ounces of silver and like a dope i sold them a few months too early

can't help but kick myself.. constantly

guitarwes · April 5, 2011 11:43PM

my hand is down. I've been selling a good bit of 90% and taking a profit when I can.

Steve27 · April 5, 2011 11:58PM

I'm always a buyer if the price is right, but I'm mostly selling.

DrBuster · April 5, 2011 11:59PM

Holding here, no buys since January. Paid the wife's suv off a year early 2 weeks ago, and 2 winter vacas and all CC paid off though as of this week, so I'm set to buy again.

PerryHall · April 6, 2011 12:32AM

I buy when spare cash is available and a good deal comes along.

gecko109 · April 6, 2011 12:44AM

I have hit my silver goal...so im done there. Now im loading up on gold fracs.

derryb · April 6, 2011 12:51AM

always buying in a bull market. The trend is my friend, at least for now.

bestmr · April 6, 2011 12:58AM

If anything, thinking of selling some silver to get some gold.

pf70collector · April 6, 2011 2:08AM

175 oz all in the 5 oz pucks since Feb direct from the APs.

pakasmom · April 6, 2011 3:05AM

Not me. Waiting to double (if I can sell at $40.)

PinkFloyd · April 6, 2011 3:28AM

ATB 5oz too if I can get them.

KISHU1 · April 6, 2011 3:39AM

Up or down I'm always buying

Folks who have none should prolly buy some.

Folks who have LOTS should prolly sell some.

In 1980, "success" was largely measured by how many "free"
houses folks ended up with by being lucky/smart/perfect timers.

This time, "success" could be measured by how many "free"
strip-malls folks end up with by buying/selling/trading in lucky
fashion.

........

If it becomes obvious that "things" will change by 2013, there will
be harsh corrections from the yet to be established new highs.

NO hoarder makes a profit until he sells. "Paper profits" are sure
academically interesting, but collecting those profits in the currency
of the realm and other historic value storehouses is really how the
score is kept in this game.

jmski52 · April 6, 2011 7:14AM

True enough, Storm. True enough.

fivecents · April 6, 2011 7:27AM

I am buying the ATBs pucks from the APs. Am I making sense or speaking jibberish?

halfhunter · April 6, 2011 9:37AM

Still buying . . . bought a whole ½ ounce . . .

Now need to find a bezel for it.

NECK BLING ! ! !

percyb · April 6, 2011 9:43AM

I am.

jmski52 · April 6, 2011 12:15PM

I sold some burnished AGEs at a good price and I'm sitting on the proceeds in order to parlay my winnings into 2011 Proof Plats. And I'm watching as the price of platinum continues to trend higher...

In the meantime, I'm buying Pucks whenever an opportunity to buy them near melt pops up.

Downtown1974 · April 6, 2011 12:19PM

Im not where I want to be with silver, so Im still buying. As a matter of fact...Im gonna buy some tomorrow.

RGJohn · April 6, 2011 11:59PM

<< ....................... And I'm watching as the price of platinum continues to trend higher...... >>

Well I'm metaphorically standing in line outside the men's room, shifting my weight from one foot to the other, and praying for that. Actually I'm praying for 'skyrocket higher' but at this point I'd settle for 'trend'.
And uh God?, please SOON!
------

All the real action seems to be in silver and gold. Maybe we'll have some Pt fun yet or maybe it's a harbinger of:
1.
2.
3.
and/or
4.

One may fill in the above numbers by consulting other threads of one's own choosing but it is obligatory that each be even more dire than the others as well as more certain to occur.
----
Meanwhile I have to return to line. Maybe I can buy some 90% from the guy in front of me and sell to the guy behind! Might as well pass the time profitably I guess.

gsa1fan · April 7, 2011 12:03AM

I will be today

Downtown1974 · April 7, 2011 3:35AM

Oh yeah....still buying!

akuracy503 · May 5, 2011 1:24AM

What's your new price target for buying?

Seems like $33 is the general census for our next support level.

AnkurJ · May 5, 2011 1:42AM

<< What's your new price target for buying?

Which will be here tomorrow at the rate it's falling. I'm waiting for $30.

gdavis70 · May 5, 2011 1:54AM

Always buying and selling... I am regretting buying 80 fv in WLH's over the weekend though... dang...

revoldlog · May 5, 2011 1:56AM

<< What's your new price target for buying? >>

Here is my plan:

I am planning for three purchases for long term holding, possibly starting in June.

I don't have a specific price target. It all depends on the market.

I will definitely not try to catch the falling knife by trying to time the bottom. I will rather make the 1st purchase when I see a "bottom" being tested twice.

If it continues to go up, I will place the 2nd and 3rd purchase within 3 months.

If it continues to go down, I will wait for a new "bottom" to form and being tested twice again and I will place my 2nd purchase , and so on.
