Have you tried...I know you have not...then you would realize to pay cash up front and wait for delivery for some undisclosed time (still waiting for delivery are you?)...that is as bright as a three watt bulb....as far as taking delivery of 1000 oz bars..thats debatable...ask the Hunt brothers. Oh ...and look at the fortis report again....I think you left out a key demand....and as of last week COT most shorts in silver have not covered (hm... could they be so large as to be trapped?)some people...how foolish ...Mike L please use spellcheck before I have to suffer through another of your posts. I could go on but that would be a waste of time. Thanks, really appreciate it.

I called less than one hour later to change that to all 25 but was told the remaining 9 were already gone. WOW they go like hotcakes here!

The paper price for silver is $12 yet go and try to buy real hold in your hands physical silver for $12 per oz.....ha ha ha (real price $18/oz)

The paper price for gold is $800 yet go and try to buy real hold in your hands physical gold for $800 per oz.....ha ha ha (real price $950/oz)

Try this on for size...COMEX silver price will be $1.00 when dumb paper traders realize the COMEX has no silver left...duh...of course by then you can try to buy real silver on e-bay for $1000/oz.

In the meantime I will do this: buy futures contract (5000 ozs.) on the last day of trading for September delivery, if in the next two weeks the COMEX silver price stays at this, sub $12-14/oz. low level. I figure the last day, even the last hour of the last day so as to avoid too much price volatility before expiration. The goal is just to take delivery at a known paper generated price. I notice on E-bay that 100 oz. JM bars routinely are selling for + $1600-1800. I have been to several coin shops in the Los Angeles area were I have confirmed a significant depletion of physical silver, particularly 100 oz. JM bars and when they come in most coin dealers will readily pay $1.50 to as much as $2.50 over spot.

No brainer to me....in the meantime Mish you can keep your precious paper dollars in the matress while they increase in value...ha ha ha

Remember the game Rock, Paper, Scissors...scissors(ma... of metal) cuts paper....always...just like inflation(priniting of money at will...monitization of debt) will always cut deflation...just ask an Argentinian or Zimbabwean....

I have inquired about my proposed scenario to several people and apart from the usual notes of discouragement from many I have called several brokerages that will work to set up futures accounts and get inconsistant answers to the following questions.

If I take delivery, do they deliver or do I have to pick up. If I have to pick up...from where do I go? One brokerage said I will get an official piece of paper/certificate and that they consider that delivery...ha ha..thats a good one. Another brokerage said I would have to travel to New York to pick up my silver. Another said any Federal Depository. Could you give me a tip on who to contact?
If I get delivery..what do they deliver? 100 oz. JM bars would be best but I am afraid they would give me 1000 oz. bars which as far as I can tell are not as liquid...I mean who would I sell to....most coin stores do not stock or sell those and I really do not see 1000 oz. bars on E-bay. Can I specify what I want delivered? What does the COMEX store?...besides paper.
I hope to take advantage of this spread and thus fund my additional silver purchases by taking my profit in silver and repeat.
I believe if everyone did this true price discovery would occure....1 contract at a time. Maybe you could make this an article...akin to a reverse boycott of the COMEX...a COMEX run on delivery...1 contract at a time. Just a thought.

As an anecdote ...I was recently filled on an order of 16 JM 100 oz. bars @ 14.5, as luck would have it..from someone...through a coin shop that I have frequented for over a year now. I got filled buy a fluke. My coin dealer found someone in San Diego who supposedly, accidently took delivery of several contracts and wanted to unload them only in 10,000 oz./100bar lots for $1.00 over spot ($14.10 at the time) so he called me Wed. afternoon knowing I only wanted JM bars and this is what was delivered to this guy in San Diego who at that time still had some 800 bars. I did not have that much cash available so it took me a day to get another person to buy in. In that one day...the next morning, no less he had sold all 800 bars.
As luck would have it that same morning another seller showed up with 25 bars at $14.50 and I told the coin guy to purchase 16 with the money deposited for the prior failed deal. I called less than one hour later to change that to all 25 but was told the remaining 9 were already gone. WOW they go like hotcakes here! TraderTom can you contact me at searchnmn@yahoo.com.
