Current Questions and Answers The Metal Market Is Fluctuating DailyWe have based our new prices on the current $13.00 silver market. (Our previous prices were based on a $6.00 silver market.) The prices on the Fine Pewter Gift items are remaining the same. We have done our research and found our prices are still below our competitors. Campus I.D. offers you the best price for a domestically manufactured precious metal keepsake. Why is there a surcharge on silver products and what does this mean?We could rather set a lower price point and add a nominal sursharge, ONLY if the market dictates. Our surcharge is based on the weight of the piece in grams times a percentage of the overageof that day's metal market. If the market is over $14.00 we have a formula that gives a nominal percentage to add to the silver product on an order. Not every order that you place will incur a surecharge. ONLY if the market goes above $14.00. Why is the market fluctuating?Metals are a commodity. Prices are dedicated by supply and demand. Many silver mines have stopped mining; therefore at this time we are at a 15-year supply deficit. Many governments have been buying silver on the open market in order to make their own commemorative and currency coins. Another factor is the high demand in China. Just recently people were legally able to buy silver, gold, and platinum, with the largest demand in silver. Lastly, the US dollar has weakend over the last few years. There are other factors that also come into play, but we feel that these are the most important.
