I am a total newb on the precious metals market, so someone help me out here. If Kitco and apmex are both sold out of the American Silver Eagles... and other online silver places have them but being sold at $8 over spot, what the possibility demand spreads to bars and rounds and puts stress on this market?

It just seems like there's a huge disconnect between paper silver sold and the actual commodity price.

I am no expert either, but I believe this is a large reason why there is such potential here.

I've read estimates that paper silver is roughly 400 times that of actual physical silver. Meaning if everyone who owned paper silver actually demanded physical delivery, physical supply would dry up in an instant and the price would skyrocket.

There are more knowledgeable folks in this thread who could probably explain it more in depth, but that's my cloud level understanding.
