Also negotiate.
Get a price before you commit to buy.
Look up the closest other pawn shop.
Say they gave a better price.
Maybe put on a yulmuke.
2$ above spot is about right. (normally) Anyone asking more is being shady.
Under normal circumstances yes. If they have not been in a cave then Today they might simply not sell any solver since the price may go much higher before days end and they cannot place orders to replace it. All physical stock I’m finding is gone at the major vendors.
If it were me, even at $5 over spot today I would probably buy it. Last week I would agree with Pickled.
Agree. When there is a run, they will cover with a higher sell price. Desperate times...
Premiums right now are going to be minimum 5 an ounce. They'll be happy to sell in this market but they're going to smack you with that shady premium.
