This happens very often when bubbles collapse. The stupid people are the very last folks to come into the picture. They completely missed the run-up so when prices start to drop, they rush in and buy the "bargains" hoping for a repeat of the bubble. But that ALWAYS fails and the dummies end-up selling at LOWER than their purchase price when the panic sets in.
The ebay price disconnect shows the reality between the paper manipulation and real bullion. Hold on tight and stack silver is going to fly to $50 soon again.
