There is an upside to this. Silver isn't "cheap" anymore :) I, for one, am ecstatic about the price increase.

I've seen it drop over the last few days and though "damn, why did I buy that silver 2 weeks ago...?" Luckily the AUD was also up so it probably evened the cost out!

It's really hard to get projects going when 50gm from the PMC guild was $108.50. Clients will not pay up.

I'm glad I didn't buy the wire that was in my "shopping cart" last week. I wonder if this trend will continue.

I noticed the drop in silver also! I bought some at $42 or $43 yesterday, then again later at $39. Now it's at $36 something. It felt so good to see it drop under $40.

Interesting how perceptions vary. A friend who does functional pottery also did show, said sales were horrible and set up was horrible. Would never go back.
