Getting full value on 40% halves

[weighit]

Found a way to get full silver value out of my 40% halves this month. I wanted to buy a power wood planer and a pressure washer. Shopped new and each was well over $400.00 so started hunting used. Found them used on Craig's List locally. Asked each seller if they would take 40% halves at that days silver value in exchange for the used item. Both fellows said yes, one was willing to drop his asking price for the washer by $25 for the coins. I got $2.64 for each coin the day I traded. I paid $56.50 for the $300 planer and $28.50 for the $150 washer face value. Now looking for some gold dry washer equipment and will attempt the same trade. Might be able find someone willing to trade again.

I think we should all get used to doing it your way ... soon our paper will be worthless and that may be the only way to buy anything. [emoji15]

Dewalt planer and Simpson washer, both work fantastic and so far to me was a good deal.

Nice imaginative trade. Both sides got what they wanted. A win-win. Congrats.
