I'm looking for a good location to buy Mexican silver libertads at a good price. None of this double melt-cost from places like Panda America, but close to spot as possible.
Can this be done in the U.S.?

Yes, ebay has some of them, but that's not a good deal because the cost of S/H is usually too high and the prices are way above spot. I have plenty of them, just looking for a reliable source that I can continue to acquire them from .

I understand shipping charges - that's fine as long as they're not inflated like you mostly find on ebay.
Coin World only has a few "dealers" that have the coins, but they are usually 100+% over spot. I'm looking for a "fair" price over spot which could be 10%-20% or so. Why aren't they similar to the Silver Eagles in price.
So, a source in Mexico would be nice.

I have 10 or 12 of them, and I got mine on Ebay. You can get some there, but with the price of silver going up, you will pay a little more than spot prices.
When I bought mine, they were around $3.50 to $4.00, but now they are around $15 to $20 each.
They are a beautiful coin, and I am going to have to part with mine, even though I don't want to.

Sounds like you want our cake and eat it too. Sorry but any place that sells them will charge postage and it will be high due to the new postage rates plus insurance. Panda America is the last place I would buy anything. Go to a coin dealer and see if he has Numismatic News it comes out once a week. It may take a few issues but you will find a seller of them and maybe you can deal. Since they are traded on the open London silver market you will never get them real cheap. First dealers sell for at least 10%, but usually more over spot and they do have added value because like the American Eagle they are a collectible. I have seen them for 10% over spot, but the catch was you had to buy at lest a 100 of them.
