The price reductions aren’t nearly enough considering the hit gold and silver prices have taken.

Mark,
The decision to price Silver products is based on supply and demand and not fairness or spot market prices. The Silver Bullion has been selling like hot cakes and it is no surprise that the Mint is probably diverting the metal to the production of those coins as opposed to the numismatic products that have your interest. It is for this reason alone that the prices are unlikely to move (that having said, I am in the same boat as you, waiting for the next re-pricing so I can pounce on my fav puck). Keep an eye on sales of Silver Eagle Bullion coins, the day the sales of these fall as a pattern, is when the next re-pricing is likely to happen. Good luck collecting.

I hope the delay in putting out the Great Basin 5 Oz P quarter is a sign of price reduction. I mean how low does silver have to go for them to drop the price of the silver products? I have been getting at least one P each since I learned of the program since Q4 2012 and the first 2 so far this year – so 4. I was about ready to cancel my 5 oz ATB subscription until this article. I really hope this a signal that they will be reducing it because at this point instead of buying an additional P’s I have been buying the bullion versions. Really wish I would of knew of this program before so I would had a shot at getting the Hawaii one, which is the one I desire the most but the current price of them is so far out of my ability to buy.
