There's no mystery to buying silver close to spot, and your attempts to make it seem so are disingenuous at best. Any local dealer -- and they are EVERYWHERE -- will give your end user a HUGE discount based on the half-ounce price you're ripping them off for.

Stealing from Jack to pay Jill is ALWAYS bad business. The fact that you're willing to sell your ethics so cheaply should be embarrassing to you.
