"上个月初的银价每克才16元左右，现在都涨到接近24元了。"在深圳水贝从事银饰生意的黄经理 说，"真没想到银价涨得这么猛，但现在我们也不敢再溢价进货"。 1月12日，国际金价和银价再创历史新高。其中，纽约商品交易所黄金期价和伦敦现货黄金价格盘中均 一度突破每盎司4600美元关口，现货白银价格一度突破每盎司84美元。自去年12月起，水贝市场就刮起 了"抢银热"，商家们的反应非常灵敏。如今在价格再创新高的背景下，深圳水贝市场又发生了哪些变 化？ 记者了解到，水贝市场大部分商户出售投资银条，都是以银价加上加工费后再乘以克重这一公式来计算 价格。有商家以克重为1000克的银条为例，克价为25元，以12日的银价计算，也就是相当于每克增加了 1.5元的工费，但回收时按市场的回收价格计算，也就是每克17元左右。 有商家表示，"最近银价涨得猛，回收价格也上涨了一些，但涨幅不及售价"。对此，有业内人士表示， 普通消费者如果纯粹为了投资白银而购买实物银条，还是需谨慎。 关于未来白银的价格走势，多位商户均向记者表示，看涨未来白银价格走势，但高位拿货还是会谨慎。 而且，目前市场青睐的基本是银条而非银饰，这也意味着客户多为投资客。相比 ...
