Price of silver

I was just talking to my welding supplier and they said the price of silver filler is “way” up. Still waiting for prices to come back… Last time I ordered in 2023 I got 5 oz of Lucas Milhaupt 45% for $137 CAD. What’s everyone else paying?

It seems to be 55-65$/toz (Canadian) depending where you buy. Haven’t found anything cheaper than that in a few years. You can save a little bit buying volume but not much, maybe 2-3$/toz, and last time I checked the best volume break was at 25toz. It doesn’t go bad, but that’s a LOT of silver.

When I started building, silver was 11$/to :smiling_face_with_tear:

Cool. The Linde online boutique is showing $33/oz CAD right now but I don’t use their online platform so I don’t know if that’s my price or the anybody price.

Gasflux pegs their retail prices to the market, here (currently at $48 per troy oz. for 56%):

I’ve got 56% currently at $40USD per troy oz.:

Just purchased 5 oz of 56% at 65 CA/oz. I looked around Canadian sources and didn’t see better - got Linde to quote on a 5oz package but it was more expensive than buying five 1oz packages from CWS, and CWS has free freight. Bringing shipments of silver across the border costs big time for exchange rates/shipping/brokerage/etc so I’d prefer no surprises and use a Canadian source.

Dunno what the program did to my post, price should read $65 Canadian per oz.

As a guide to lower Ag alloys, I recently bought 1000g of Metabraze 130, 30% Ag for £460GBP

I reckon that works out at around 24CAD per Oz.

All the best,
