|    
|    Precious metal (PM) dealers typically do not pay the spot price when purchasing bullion from customers; instead,
|    they pay below spot to account for their operational costs, risk, and profit margin.
|    
|    This practice is standard across the industry, as dealers must cover expenses such as refining, minting,
|    distribution, and the risk of holding inventory.
|    
|    The amount paid under spot can vary significantly depending on market conditions, dealer inventory levels, and
|    the type of metal or product being sold.
|    For instance, during periods of high price volatility or when refiners are at capacity, dealers may pay
|    substantially below spot to mitigate risk, especially if they cannot quickly resell the metal to refiners or
|    wholesalers.

it's always the same bullshit

first they told us: because the price is low, the premiums are high... how high? almost 30% for silver on small
denominations (1ozt), 20% on medium (10ozt), and 10% on large ones (100ozt+)

then now on the buyback side: no matter what denomination, anything between 5-18% UNDER spot, depending if
.999+, .80, or .925 fine

and they are still selling silver for premium on physical markets, around 5-10% over spot

bunch of cry babies and scammers, walk in trying to sell without knowing the spot prices and this bullshit
dynamics and you are going to get ripped off, 100% guaranteed
