I agree re: not speculating on "proof" sets; however, assuming one doesn't have the connections to buy from private sellers & instead buys from reputable dealers, how realistic is it to expect to buy at spot? After all, the dealer needs to realize some % profit to keep the lights on, make payroll, and have some profit left over for him/herself.
The dealers I know always have product, and charge a flat $75 over spot for one ounce gold eagles & $3 over spot for one ounce silver eagles.
