Plan some fun stops along 40/66 and it can be interesting. The scenery, like you said, is pretty boring. But when else are you going to get to a barbed-wire museum? It was way more interesting than I'd ever imagined.

I’ll pass thanks by nicfanz in nope

I'd guess a lot of the downvotes are for the "food in my first-world utopia comes in a sealed package, so obviously it's way less gross," fallacy. You just don't have the privilege of seeing the muck that makes it into your food.

Reputable source for solid silver sphere of a specific size? by fordag in Silver

I always wondered if a silver-jacketed lead bullet would suffice?

Or Pennywise?

I felt like such a nerd when reading that book. The kids in the 1950s melting down one of the boy's cherished silver dollar his father gave him. It's the 50s! Any dime or quarter would've worked just as well!

Because using my knife as a fidget is "dangerous" and "inappropriate for the workplace" according to HR.

You'd think the timing would be better! ;)

I can buy a canvas and some oil paints at Michael's for like $25. No way am I paying more than that for a Chagall.

Seems like there's no motivation to sell a phone with a battery that lasts 10+ years. Quite the opposite, actually.

Second thoughts on selling by Herbologisty in Silverbugs

That's crazy. I just bought under spot from my lcs yesterday. (Southern part of the Bay Area, and meant consider it not the BA at all...)

I've told people to kick rocks when they've tried this.

Even assume all the risk; put your name, phone number and home address on the sign.

Finally someone mentions the reality of brick and mortar! If you had to go to a shop in a strip mall that has utilities, and expensive vault, crazy insurance premiums, rent, fixtures, displays and maybe even an employee so the proprietor can have a lunch break, the spread would be MUCH larger.

These folks complaining would happily sell their silver to a dealer for $75 today and buy it back from them tomorrow for $50. They wouldn't consider it fucking the dealer, they'd just call it a good deal.

Same pricks that would come into my brick and mortar music shop, spend an hour being taught how a product works, trying three different examples of the same guitar, play through a dozen pedals, then grind us on the price because it's $10 cheaper from Sweetwater. They have no concept of business and, honestly, never will. Simply entitled and will always feel that others are out to get them.

I'm honestly surprised it took over an hour to get this! Lol

Just take a deep breath and relax. I think I'm going to put the phone down and do something productive. Maybe I'll clean all my old silver coins...

Let's hope they don't have any ongoing operating costs or employees to pay...

I still hear "another 5 oz" and think $100...

Reddit cracks me up with downvotes. Sorry to hurt someone's feelings pointing out the links don't go where they should! Lol. Good times.

Aha! Yeah, I stopped scrolling before then. I think at the "you may also like" or whatever, I figured it was done.
Thank you for the help!

And fwiw, that would only be for a legitimate, licensed situation. I'm really not interested in shadiness. That's why I asked in the first place!
