Is there a silver lining investing in Silver Coins?

[sgd]

silver wire ?
what is it ?
industrial material ?
is there a resale market ?
who selling ? who buying ?

The problem is not who is buying, it's genuine stuff so I think won't be any problem. I was going around looking for closing down audio shops with possible old stock going at firesale prices but no luck there.

The problem is the price they were selling at shop retail prices at a huge markup so to invest in it will mean overpaying before even making any money a big risk.

I also went to mustafa in the jewellery department there is a small section where they sell physical 998 999 silver bars and coins but all going at retail markup prices several times higher than market rates.

physical very hard to hold lah.

Anyways in the 2013 prediction thread my prediction is this year gold market will tank and take a correction.

(so not vested also)
