Guess the total SAE's sold for Jan - 2013

carew4me

The current total as of today 01/09/13 is 4,287,000.

What will the final January number be???

My guess 5,276,888.

Hope a lot of the pre-order buyers from this small group of wholesalers don't get disappointed by having their money tied up only to have it returned at a later date. Could explain the sudden drying up of prior year boxes.

ksammut

I believe it will go over 6 million so I will guess 6,128,000.

OPA

I believe that the Authorized Buyers have completed most of their early orders. Unless demand picks up substantially from their clients, I doubt that it will exceed 5 million.

I am guessing 6,450,000


On a related note, Provident Metals has this notice on their website.
"NOTICE: Due to extremely high order volumes, some orders have been taking longer than normal to process. We are working feverishly to expedite orders and appreciate your patience."

It shouldn't be related to the 2013 ASE, still it means that people are buying a lot of PM!

My guess is, that you do not peruse Provident's website very often. That comment is on all of their pre sale items and has been for years.

I order mucho from Provident and the banner in question is at the top of the main page.
It is fairly rare to see it.
I in no way wish to extrapolate its meaning to either Jan Eagle sales or demand in general.
but it is nice to see

Overdate

My guess is 5,617,033.

Overdate

Is there a cutoff date for guesses?

Hope it's not January 31!

And the price of silver continues to flounder.

I actually do visit them often but haven't noticed it before...it's pretty green to be missed...

carew4me

4,632,000 as of 01/10/2012

Spooly

5,700,000

I think a lot of people have shifted from buy PM "gold & silver" to buying PM "steel & lead"(guns and ammo).

Since we're already at 6 mill, I'll go with 7.25 mill.

6,007,000!

All those 5,XXX,XXX guesses taken out (including mine!)


January Record (2012) : 6,422,000

Wolf359

As you just said, it's now: 6,007,000

Zoom! Eight to Ten million possible this month?

ksammut

My guess of 6.12 million will be passed in the next day or two. My 40+ million guess for the year is a possibility.

Jan 12 may have been a record, but total silver sales for 2012 decreased by 25% over 2011. So January is not a good gauge for possible future production totals.

carew4me

Maybe the 2012 record is safe.....or another million order last week of Jan?!!?

US Mint Temporarily Sold Out of 2013 Silver Eagles - no more orders until 1-28

Spooly

Looks like ksammut is the closest so far.
