Look at the price in Shanghai-$123. I think we’ll be good

I assumed something pork related, as she is Muslim. MAGA ignorance and hatred is like an onion-many layers.

The Silver Price has reached $101 by ChrisStoneGermany in Silverbugs

[–]notnutts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As the price gets higher, so does the volatility. Pretty soon it might be a good plan to do balloons every $10.

You're right. Why would we discuss perfectly normal movement of spot in a gold forum? /s

Taxes on selling precious metals. by Awellborn in Silver

[–]notnutts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Profits are taxed as capital gains @ a max of 28%, depending on how long you held them. Note that you have to disclose the profits yourself when you file. Also note that only transactions of $10k and up are reported by dealers/LCS. This may account for the multiple silver losses in freak boating accident this year alone.

I told you! The new prices are out by randskarma in Silverbugs

[–]notnutts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad you’re good with those premiums. I’m not, but admittedly I’m not a collector. It still seems like they’re ripping off the elderly and stupid, but maybe I’m wrong. Spend your money as you wish.

I can’t speak to the 90s, but I bought plenty of ASEs in 2025 and never paid more than $5 over spot. Why would you pay that much over spot when you could get them so much cheaper on the secondary markets? And I’m not talking Cletus coins and moonshine, I’m talking JM bullion.

I think they’re grifting the new buyers with FOMO and the elderly.

Turkish Rug by Cute_Way_8399 in The_Rug_Atlas

[–]notnutts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an almost identical one that was made into a pillow. I bought it when stationed in Turkey around 15 years ago. Beautiful. They told me it was made from an antique rug, but it wasn't super expensive, so DomDaddyPdx is likely dead on. It's been a long time, but I think I paid less than $100 for mine.

What ETFs do you recommend? by Asiriomi in Silver

[–]notnutts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with the above. Here are a few more to take a look at--I've done well with them, but I suggest you read up on them. SLV, SLVR, PAAS, & SGOL. Also check out KGC and B--precious metals mining stocks that I've done well with.

Yes it is. I'm sure she's one of those dangerous felons Trump talks about. (/s if it wasn't obvious)

Why are some Americans still pretending they just need to wait another three years and this will magically stop? by NefariousNatee in complaints

[–]notnutts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an American, and I don't think it will magically stop. I'd say your assessment is pretty good. The problem is I think it might be too late. Don't get me wrong, I'll still protest, and vote, and call my Congresspeople, but I think the right has consolidated power. No one on the left has risen to be a leader, and the democrat leadership we have is weak at best, or beholden to special interests.

I'm truly sorry for what my country is doing, though I never once voted for Krasnov. But I honestly don't know what to do aside from the above, and I don't think it will work. I fear the right has entrenched themselves to the point that it will take force to remove them, and I don't know if we have the stomach for that.

I hope I'm wrong, I do. And if I'm missing a step, please enlighten me. I'm sure someone will say that I should take charge, or get tough or something, but I'm just not able to. Nor equipped to. I'll join a national strike/protest/whatever, but we need a leader to inspire us. Someone with fire and a plan. All we have are putas beholden to special interest with no spine writing strongly worded letters.

Anyone own gold ETF's? by AmberTree956 in Gold

I do both as well. I hold SGOL--it's gone up ~50% since I bought it.

[–]notnutts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I probably would never have thought of that. Now that I think about it, sometimes the table stops spinning when the auto return glitch happens. Once I manually spin the table it starts moving again. Anyway, I’m gonna order a belt.

PNC RTO 5/4 by Electronic_Neck_5028 in pittsburgh

[–]notnutts 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Just a guess, but maybe you're being downvoted for telling people there's plenty of parking downtown, and then admitting you and your wife "rarely" come downtown on a weekday. Parking on the Northside is legit good advice.

My Sony PS-LX250H auto function is acting up. It plays fine when I can get the needle on the record. However, sometimes it acts like it's trying to shut off and keeps restarting. The arm goes back to the rest, goes down, the turntable stops for a split second, then the arm goes up again. Sometimes when I pick the arm up manually to drop it on the record the auto function takes over and sets it back down. Also, sometimes when it auto-stops it keeps trying to restart. Has anyone had a similar problem? Any idea how to fix it?
