Silver prices, future etc.

I read that silver is used in technology manufacture so that there will be a need for it (in a less visible way) however I know zip about that too.

gees AF, my cat might enjoy eating from a sterling dish too....I'll ask him.

 

Hi,
Before the Govt stopped making cents out of copper. I had copper leaders and down spouts put on my home. It was only like 300 more than aluminum. Now I would have to mortgage the house to put copper up. I thought about it when I redid the roof here. Aluminum was 275 dollars, Copper would be almost 3K.

According to a couple of studies lately, you would make more money investing in Lego sets, than in stocks or gold.

 

I've made these, and other copper items, by hand. Love them.

 

I remember years ago when the copper downspouts were all stolen off the back of my parent's church (only the ones that were not visible from the street). I don't know if stealing from a church makes it less offensive or more. I mean if someone really needed the money......

Lego's huh......they aren't nearly as pretty.

 

They're also much more portable.

 

Well true and their shape is not so static. Heck you could make yourself a bowl, maybe a chair and then change it to a table and the then who knows, the sky's the limit!

 

Try doing that with diamonds. (LOL) I'm wishing I'd invested in the Star Wars toys nobody wanted. Now the ones from the original movie can be worth as much as my car.

 

Wow....hey I think we have some old Star Wars figures around here somewhere. Now I bet you're going to say something about condition LOL

 

A prototype Boba Fett figurine on the original card that the guy wanted $150,000 for. Rick offered 100 grand and got turned down.

Results with a real seller and a real buyer would probably differ.

 

Ended no bid

Ended by seller no longer available? so if they were lucky enough to find a buyer I guess they went off Ebay.

 

If you read between the lines, 'Contact me to do a deal seem quite clearly implied.'

 

Hmmm - one more thing to look for at tag sales.(LOL) Yesterday I went to an "estate sale" ... and bought a shoe brush and a Tupperware container.
