Silver madness!

Well , I blew $19.30 today , bought an Uncirculated 1941 S dime , a 1943 dime , a 1960 half , 1951 D & 1961 quarters .Not bad .
 
Fortunately, you can google customer reviews on consumer protection websites like the BBB, BCA, TrustLink, RipoffReport, etc... I go with http://www.RegalAssets.co for precious metals. I don't deal with ebay for sure, and a lot of the other companies out there are a bit suspect after you do your research -overcharging/ hidden fees, high commissions and high pressure sales on numismatic coins, etc. http://goldirarolloverexpert.com/gold-ira-company-reviews/ - lists BBB, BCA, Ripoffreport, etc. for some of the top gold companies. It's a transparent world & thanks to the internet, companies with consumer complaints can't hide.
 
I picked up three silver 1944 US made Phillipine's dimes today , got an excellent deal.

Today , picked up an old Mexican gold Pc. , probably gift it to one of the Grand Daughters .
 
I find it worse spending time and gas to go get the coins from a dealer since I don't have any close by. eBay does have a purpose, and it'll always be happy to ride the subsidized Post Office prices.

Aren't the First Class postal patrons paying for all of that presorted garbage that fills our boxes?
 
Today , I picked up a small bit of 14k gold wire , think I may try and make something with it .....
 
What is a good price to pay on eBay for silver coins? I need to start shopping.
 
I may run an ad on Craigslist "Want to buy silver coins" . I don't like going through eBay or PayPal for stuff like that.

How much over spot do you guys think is fair to pay? I saw one ad on Craigslist " want to buy American Silver Eagles willing to pay $1.75 over spot" .

Is it possible for someone to sell me fake silver coins? Anything I need to look out for there?

It is certainly possible, but I think unlikely in the case of bullion coins mainly because the effort needed to produce a passable fake silver coin would exceed the selling price . Numismatic coins are another matter entirely.

As always, beware of a deal that seems too good to be true. Be familiar with the proper dimensions, finish, feeling in the hand, and ring of the coins you are going to purchase. Junk silver might be the safest.
