Has any one here tried cutting their orders back to bi weekly or even every 3 weeks. Let the supply build back up and give the banks and retail a chance to dump more coin into the system. I have though about this for some time now. In my area it seem as though about every 3-4 weeks I get a decent haul. I just can't bring myself to miss a week thinking that the good boxes will disappear.:laughing7: Just wanting to know if any one has tried this and had good results.

An unopened box is a known unknown - I don't know what hell I'm saying.
 

I'm more with ya on the not missing an order so I don't miss the DREAM BOX! I fear if I stop any that it will be a challenge to go back to my normal order or, the F word will come up. HH, Maverick.

The dream boxes are all waiting in the cash vault for me to stop ordering. Ben Bernake told me so. They can only wait so long...
 

I have been thinking of hoarding my searched dump boxes to reduce the inventory. Then the following boxes that I order should be more concentrated with silver. Just a theory.
 

that is a wonderful idea... if you have hundreds of thousands of dollars just laying around...

Well of course, don't you have the same bank roll? To get into this club we all had to show our bank statements.....

In all seriousness, I guess thinking about it to make a actual impact on the amount of silver you'd have to hoard a lot of boxes. I'm still new at this & it was a silly thought.

An unopened box is a known unknown - I don't know what hell I'm saying.

After a day* of pondering, I have figured out an explanation for this:

Known Knowns

It is known something is known. In other words, something is known, and you know it.

ex: All 1964 halves are 90% silver. (There are no ifs, ands, or buts, it is a known fact.)

Known Unknowns

It is known that something is unknown. In other words, something is unknown, and you know about that.

ex: a box of halves (You know that there could be a skunk, or 50 90% halves in there, the box has lots of uncertainty in it)
.
Unknown Unknowns

It is unknown that something is unknown. In other words, you don't know something is unknown.

ex: A new CRHer believes all boxes will contain 1000 halves (The new CRHer does not know (is "unknown") about the fact that some boxes may be shorted, or could contain foreign coins. The box is an unknown in terms of what types of coins you will get as well, not just on silver.)



There are also other types that CoinFetcher did not mention, unknown knowns, known uncertainties, uncertain uncertainties, uncertain knowns, and unknown uncertainties.




Unknown Knowns


It is unknown that something is known. In other words, you don't know something is known.

ex: An ignorant teller believes halves are withdrawn from circulation. (The teller does not know that a known fact of halves being in circulation is true.)

Known Uncertainties

It is known something is an uncertainty.

ex: Silver will go up to $50 next year. (There is an uncertainty as to whether that will actually happen.)

Uncertain Uncertainties

It is uncertain that something is an uncertainty. In other words, there is doubt as to whether something is an uncertainty.

ex: Garda culls silver. (There is a doubt as to whether that is uncertain, or whether that is just simply false.)

Uncertain Knowns

It is uncertain that something is known. In other words, you are unsure that something is known.

ex: A new CRHer believes that he might be the only CRHer in America. (He is unsure that people know about silver.)

Unknown Uncertainties

It is unknown that something is an uncertainty. In other words, you don't know that something is uncertain.

ex: A CRHer is astonished that another CRH doesn't keep 40% halves. (The CRHer did not know that other CRHers did not keep 40% halves. He was sure, but now he has an uncertainty over whether a random CRH would keep 40% halves.)


*= It really only took me 10 minutes during morning announcements to come up with this explanation.

So, do you like this explanation or not, CoinFetcher?
