Will 90% ever be the same again??

Hi all-
Just a rambling post-
Anyone that has been on this site a long time, and can remember back when this site was on forumco, with the red and blue background
, knows I was there and I have been 110% in favor of US90% since day 1 of post 1.
I'm not an ancient investor, but for the longest time, 90% was the most basic silver you could get, it routinely sold for melt or like .15c over melt even on the big wholesalers like apmex and tulving.
Now that 90% has actually sold for significantly OVER spot, I am worried that this will become the new norm from now on-
The EXACT same thing happened with pre-33 gold on me. I was buying it at MELT (yes, melt) from my LCS as late as 2007 when it was ho-hum. But after gold broke $1000 for the first time, the premiums on all pre-33 launched (with everything else) and havent come down since....
I know that premiums on 90% silver were significantly over melt in the 70's silver boom, and around Y2k, and eventually came down, but I think we can all agree that this is NOT the same USA as the late 70's and 1999....
Any thoughts??? No wrong answers....
