Agree, understandable people got to make a profit, but the price for these is absurd.... you can make your own exactly the same cheaper, or however you want... There is nothing original about these considering you can easily duplicate as many as you want. Stupid prices, people buying these are throwing money down the shitter, ill stick with LTC in my wallet and have more cash in the end.
Personally, I don't have the time or money to put into minting my own silver litecoins, and as a long time coin and bullion collector, I'm more than happy to pay smoothie to produce these coins for me. I bought some 1/2 oz, some 1 oz, and will definitely be getting some 1/4 oz coins when available.
