"The major users of silver have long-term delivery contracts with silver
producers, they don't do their silver shopping at the commodity
exchanges or the central banks."

One of my small silver plays is a company which seems to be leaning towards such an arrangement. The buyer guarantees a bottom price but pays a discount to market price. Of course, as the silver price rises the discount remains, but to a higher silver price. There is currently a 200 million+ annual production deficit to consumption. There is not enough mine production to satisfy current industrial demand. If there was our remaining paltry COMEX stockpile wouldn't be drawing down so fast. --Alan
