According to Cashbackr.Com, a great site to track the current cashback rate across various keywords, more than HALF of the searches pertain to precious metals of some sort. See the screenshot below:

Silver on eBay – A Buyer’s Guide – April 2010
Some of you may have read my initial guide titled “The Case for Buying Gold and Silver on eBay” as a response to another guide author who I felt missed the mark on seeing the eBay market for what it actually was. If you haven’t, you can check it out here at your leisure: http://reviews.ebay.com/The-Case-for-Buying-Gold-and-Silver-on-eBay_W0QQugidZ10000000011602894
The initial guide is nearing a year old, and the eBay market has changed substantially since I first offered my thoughts. Instead of trying to revise the initial guide piece by piece, I thought the most effective strategy was to write a new guide looking at how things have changed.

Welcome to Silver Enthusiast
If you’ve found this site already, you probably know me. Otherwise, you somehow managed to perform a search to end all searches and found a domain registered a few hours ago. Either way, welcome. As the name suggests, this site is all about silver. You’ll find hand-written articles on silver coins, bullion, industry topics, and anything else that compels me to put my thoughts on paper (so to speak). As you might expect, I am an ardent believer in silver as an investment and wholeheartedly think in my lifetime (I’ve got a good 60 years left) we’ll see its value on par with present-day gold prices.

I’ll try to let keep the heavy analysis to the big guns, but hopefully you’ll find plenty of value here to at least check back now and then. My first real post (besides this obligatory crap) will be a look at the current eBay market. There’s a whole lot we can learn from what the average joe is buying out there, and especially how much he’s willing to pay.
