Anyways back in the real world. It may rise a bit, but we’ll likely see a fall back in pricing before then. Maybe a modest 30 dollars an oz by 2030?

No-one has been to the Moon. They just pretended they did. You can't travel through the Van Allen radiation belt and survive.

there's a few distinctively British activities that this description pertains to 🙄

A bit like a yard sale of sorts. 
As 27carrots said people fill up their car boots with items they want to sell. They drive to a designated place (sometimes a supermarket car park, sometimes a farmer's field), pay an entry fee (like rent) and then drive in, find a spot to park, open the boot and start unloading. They usually bring collapsible tables and such to put things out properly for people to see.
Other people who aren't selling will then drive there as well, pay the farmer/organiser to enter the site, park up and go hunting for bargains.
I used to go to quite a few years ago with my grandfather, always loved a car boot sale. Yes there's a lot of tat and junk, but hidden amongst it all there are occasionally things of value being sold by people who don't know what they've got, and often very cheaply too.
 

There are several sellers at Cheddar Boot Fair who sell 925 flatware at spot value. They buy at 80% of spot. They've usually got a few grands worth of stock available

I follow that guy!

If you based in the US then I would highly recommend watching this guy on YouTube.
 
 

As mentioned already by some other commentators. I would buy what is local to you for as close to spot as you can. For me in the UK that is sovs. In the US it would be eagles. Good luck 

Another thing you could do is save the cash  up every month until you see a good deal or the price drops then jump on it. 

Tommy, thank you, are sovs better than american eagles? I'm putting down $200-250 at most a month.
 
Zhorro, I see. What resources are out there to do my own research to indicate the start/end of a run? Also, what variables, besides inflation, affect the price of gold?   

Dollar cost average, buy a little every month. I only allocated 15-20% of my portfolio to PMs. No point buying silver, premiums are silly and the ‘silver squeeze’ is total bollocks. Try a sov a month or something along those lines.

I'd say boots on the ground and just trawl the ones in your local area? 

Anyone know of any good car boots or markets to pick up 925 flatware and junk silver in the UK? 

@lextex, since you are located in the USA, your choice of gold should be either American Eagles or American Buffalos.  The reason is because a stacker should hold the bullion of his or her country for ease of liquidity.  Yes you can hold British Sovereigns or gold from other countries, but you may not get what you want when it's time to sell.  It is easier to sell and get top dollar from 10 American Eagle gold coins than 10 different gold products from all over the place.  As @TommyTwoShots said, dollar cost averaging is the best way to buy.

Doesn’t matter either way mate, it’s just silver bullion. You should do what you want with your coins if it makes them shiny again.

Hi, noob here. As an alternative to my savings account, I'm thinking of buying and stacking some 2.5 grams of PAMP gold from jmbullion, but I noticed the price of gold per ounce is near 1900. I assume you don't buy on a bull run, but considering inflation is around the corner in America, would now be the time to buy?

Will Anusol Haemorrhoid cream work?  Would be good if it sorted more than one pain in the arse! 

Off to Halfords to clean my proofs...

Silver Bullion Coin Supply Update
We went to buy more 2021 silver Britannias today, only to be told:
"2021 Silver Britannias - Major Supply Issues at the (Royal) Mint From xxx - 'The mint are having major production issues on silver at the moment so we are temporarily halting silver Britannia orders until we get some clear guidance on when more coins will be available. I will reach out to you again once we can offer these coins.'"   and  from yyy also not able to take orders on silver brits, citing the same issues as above.   You are probably all aware there have been supply problems for the last year or more with supply of silver bullion coins. We recently thought it was getting better, but the above news sank our hearts slightly.   I shared that information with a number journalists, asking if they know any more, and whether this was just at the British Royal Mint, or a worldife problem. One answer included:   "In a message released Friday, May 28, we made reference to a global shortage of silver. In more precise terms, the silver shortage being experienced by the United States Mint pertains only to the supply of silver blanks among suppliers to the U.S. Mint.

Please see the updated message below reflecting this clarification.

The United States Mint is committed to providing the best possible online experience to its customers. The Mint is being impacted by silver blank shortages among its suppliers. The demand for many of our bullion and numismatic products is at record heights and increasingly outpacing the supply of silver blanks available through our suppliers. This level of demand is felt most acutely by the Mint during the initial product release of numismatic items. Most recently in the pre-order window for 2021 Morgan Silver Dollars with Carson City privy mark (21XC) and New Orleans privy mark (21XD), the extraordinary volume of web traffic caused significant numbers of Mint customers to experience website anomalies that resulted in their inability to complete transactions."   We don't know what the main problem is at the British Royal Mint, but we did get similar responses about a month ago, but we were then able to buy a few days later. (I think we are still waiting for these to arrive). If I get to hear any more, I will relay it, but meanwhile it sounds like things are not getting back to normal as quickly as I thought.  

Have you ever tried a self storage? Two old armchairs, one sofa, two dirty mattresses and some bags of old clothes. If all of these are full of silver, nobody will suspect. And the cost is max £10 per month. In my opinion it is safer and more private than a vault. You can come anytime, bring some, take some without two bodyguards after you. Peace and quiet.

i have a decent amount vaulted with Kinesis Money - the vaulting is free as part of the system.
The rest i would have to kill you if i told you - you can buy significant commercial vaults.
