Got one of those $2.50 for first item, save $1 for each additional (and I talked him down to save $1.50 for each additional). When you can find multiple listings from the same seller you can put floor bids in just a bit higher than someone bidding on a single item would be likely to pay (knowing you're going to get a discount). I only lost on about 40 bids doing so and the aggregate costs were about 18.2x face for half dollars. But it was a helluva lot of work calculating bids for 115 listings.

I understand your volatility arguement, however I consider myself a long term holder so short term volatility doesn't concern me. As for your second arguement; my goal is to have enough silver where I complain about how much space it takes up. Having said that, exchanging silver for gold has its logic, especially after the recent run up. Just be sure to keep a core holding in Ag.
