**Silver**- @ $12.50 at 1:19am central time 8/15/08

There are many fools that borrow/borrowed money to buy gold and silver, or borrow/borrowed money to increase production at their businesses. These fools will most likely have to sell cheap to cover their ass. However those who aren't/weren't tempted to borrow money to invest will ride out the storm, I suspect it will be well after the first of the year before prices begin to rise. Only a fool would go out and and borrow money. We have to remember that the Fed has the military backing of the U.S. as it's watchdog to keep the dollar supported and central bankers around the world working with them. They will do everything to get our gold and property away from us. If you "need" something pay cash, if you have no cash trade services or barter goods.

SLV has already seen a normal day's volume in just 1.5 hours of trading. Lot's of silver changing hands today.

He's not selling at what spot is, or even close.

He said if you buy 100 ounces or more he'll sell at about 17 bucks per ounce.

I knew it.

Are all minted coin sales tracked? ie Amer. Gold Eagles, Silver Eages, etc? Is it important to have privacy when buying?

per dollar of face value silver junk coins?

I bought the dip.

Wow! This is nuts. Silver $12.55 12:21am MST

This could be a good time to get into Platinum. 1/10 coins should be around $150.00

oh, please stay at these levels for a few more weeks so I can buy a hundred oz's

has fallen to $12.77 in the Hong Kong market. I do believe the Asian market is too involved in the Olympics to worry about Silver or Gold at this time.

I want me some $12 dollar silver, not so I can "lose" money on my current holdings - but so I can BUY MORE SILVER!!!! I never expected to see silver drop this low again for a long time, if ever.

U.S. inflation rate highest in 17 years, consumer prices surprise economist (US-Economy)

Thursday, August 14, 2008 - 10:50 AM ET

By Martin Crutsinger

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON _ Consumer prices in the United States shot up in July
at twice the expected rate, pushing up U.S. inflation to the highest
level in 17 years due to the high cost of fuel, food and clothing.

....and ask him if he has any random-date, non-collectible silver dollars, is he going to say:

a) Yes, but I'm not selling this cheap.

or

b) No, I'm all out

.

I fear I'm going to hear one of those two responses in the morning.

This is crazy. I hope this holds down through friday at close when i get paid.

Right on!! Now thats a deal I can't pass up!! Time to stock up.

Silver and gold are in short supply, I think this is a violent shakeout to try to get the weak hands to sell. Most small investors get worried and sell when the price drops like this. Even if they bought it at $20 per ounce. So this exchanges from weak hands to strong hands for the huge gains.Usually you will see the price go up 5-7 times that amount, I believe it will go to 50+ after this shakeout. I followed a guy named Ted Warrens methods and he has proven to be correct all the time.

.

.........That's gold/silver ratio for those of you who don't know.

It's been around 51 for the longest.

This is very weird.

Understanding How and Why Metals Markets are Manipulated

Rob Kirby @ www.lemetropolecafe.com

The basics are these:

· A rapidly rising price of gold has historically served as the “proverbial canary in the coal mine” – alerting investors that money is being created in excess.

· This, in a nutshell, explains why gold is viewed and so widely spoken of as the “anti-dollar”. A rapidly rising price of gold explicitly means that the purchasing power of fiat money [aka the dollar] is shrinking. As people witness, first hand, the erosion of their purchasing power – they lose confidence in the currency being debased and, they naturally seek alternatives to preserve their wealth.

· Because fiat money – backed by nothing – is, in effect, a huge exercise in blind faith - monetary authorities do go to extreme lengths to prevent the erosion or collapse of the collective faith in their brand of fraudulent currency.

· Key to their efforts are making the historical sound alternatives look bad or worse.

********

Gold and silver are not falling. It's the dollar that is rallying. Why?

Ask yourself, what has become "so right" with the US economy that institutions (primarily) would flock back into the dollar? Doesn't it seem more logical (with foreclosures, bad debt, bank closures,etc.), that this is a desperate attempt by the government and its minions to make it look like "all is well"? This is a death throe, a final gasp, for the US dollar.
