I have been buying gold via kitco.com over the past several weeks. Gradually the list of available products has been getting smaller and smaller. Today there are just 3 products available to purchase: 1. Gold Maple 1 oz (Olympic ed.); 2. 400oz Gold Bar (cost=$337k); 3. 1000oz Silver Bar (cost=$11k). All denominations of gold and silver coins (i.e. 1oz, 1/2oz, 1/4oz, etc.) are unavailable to purchase becasue of high demand and supply problems. This is unbelieveable.
