I picked up another 20 myself for workin with.

I am NOT complaining though. Last run was bought @ 41 then dropped to 26 right after.

THAT drop made this drop very .... palatable. :D

.25 under is an awsome deal on ASE's!

Finally, PMs take a whipping and I have some cash on hand. Made my LCS's day today.

Have I said keep stacking lately? Well keep stacking!

Neil's correct. Here in Medford, Oregon there is a $4 premium on ASE's so even with the drop today you're still ahead of the game based on what I have to pay at my two local coin shops.

I jumped on some more "fake" today. The option premiums are quite good. Over 1% for expiration tomorrow even!

I checked the prices at lunch today and made a bee line to the coin shop. Was afraid that others would be raking in all the good stuff but to my surprise I was the only one buying. Some were selling with it being 2 dollars down. Hit it at 31.43 and scored some oz's at a very good price even with their premium. Now the price is slowly climbing back up. This is rare for me as it usually falls after I buy.

We need to wait until we see what the "super" Super Committee does. The deadline is next week, right?

Have you noticed that Cu and Ni are holding steady?

You're lucky, my LCS has been selling ASEs at $45 each since mid-Sept, not a dollar under. Now I have to order online and shipping hurts my DCA because I can only afford small orders.

About a week ago, I was making the rounds at different banks. Bought six rolls at one bank. There was 121 silver coins... 118 forties and 3 nineties. I rarely get lucky like that but it does still happen.

Is this drop due the fallout of MF Global and the looting of all the accounts?

I live in NY also. Tax is 8% , so the best deal that I can get is 8% over spot for junk silver. What ticks me off about that the most is that I pay cash and I half believe that the LCS is not recording the sale.

Does PA have sales tax, and then the problem is that I dont travel to PA for work anymre.
