B.J.s will buy your gold and silver

They are paying about 65% according to their chart...you can get that at most pawn shops...straight to the refineries is the way to go.

All these gold buyers can afford to do is give 65% and they have to buy lots of it. If you show up at the refineries with a couple of ounces, do you think they will give you money??? The gold has to be assayed in a lab so they know what purity it is, some labs want up to 30 grams just to do a full assay and they keep it. You do not get it back, and you have to pay them money on top of that for the assay. There is a company that will partly assay it if you give them $50.oo and 2 - 5 grams. however they will not smelt it, unless you have over 700 grams, and that is more than 20 troy ounces. the gold buyers are investing big time money...their money, and not to mention the gamble of the gold prices. If I had 36 ounces to sell to a buyer I would only get aprox $ 18,700 , but at a refinery I should get close to $37,400.
the buyer has to give me 18 thou for my gold and he is stuck with it. I walk away with his money. He still has to sell it to the refinery and he will only make 18 thou. if that gold pirice drops, then he will make a lot less. most all NorthAmerican placer gold is betwwen 80 and 92% most of that is only around 83% which is only 18 carrott. You know, its funny, that there was gold show on TV where they were saying that gold prices are about to skyrcoket any time!!! so now is the time to buy their gold at cost!!! If this is true, then why don't they keep their gold and make 10 times the money.? Why are they trying to sell thier gold so bad?? Why??, cause they don't want gold!!! They want MONEY!!! If I took $500.oo worth of gold to the store to buy a pack of smokes, they would kick me out!!! They dont want my gold!!! They want my MONEY!!! The only thing that is worth money these days, is MONEY. Don't tell me that you actually belive what is on the television. Television is a freek show circus and they will have everything and anything on there, just to have it on there. Most of those celeberties are not even real!!! Only digital projections...even to so called old movies are not so old as to what they want you to belive. so now the gold buyers have to be very carefull, cause some day, they might end up with all the gold,,, but NO MONEY!!!! Then it is time to pay THE BILLS!!! and PROPERTY TAXES!!! The bill collectors and so forth, ,,,well,.....they want.....MONEY!!!!MONEY MONEY!!! they will not accept gold as payment. Oh,....one more thing......all the refinery has to say is,...." Sorry sirrrrrrrr, but we are not purchasing gold at this moment...would you like to buy some?"

Well I've dealt with the refiner and it was good, well it was better than that it was GREAT!! Went in just like every other Joe from the world of PM buyers and sold off my metals. The guy told me what the refinery costs were, the assay was done right there for a $25 charge and you received the print out with your smelted bar. You could walk out the door or sell it to them and there was a few that did the melt and took the bar but most took the $$$ as thats what they wanted to do in the first place is to sell the PM. I've sold some pretty different things to them and I was surprised at the results it's been a rewarding experience to deal with them each time through the doors. One of the strangest things that I sold was cork that residual amounts of gold plated silver leaf throughout it. It wasn't worth the effort to pick every piece out without the aid of a pair of tweezers and an eye glass and after taking the cream this was a big bonus, so we did a sample burn, processed the ash, looked at each other, he explained what it would take to recover the silver and gold from the remaining lot, I smiled back and took the $$$. It takes a lot to trust anyone that buys or sells PM to or from you, once a person gains the mutual respect of the business relationship it all good.

BTW no refinery will say no to your PM as they sell it as it comes through the door based on the LME set price. I have always been indebted to the wise words of a broker "You can't go wrong/broke with making a profit" I sold my metals before I had them, it set the price for week and I was protected from the +- of the markets as they had sold my order when I hung up the phone.

thank you for your reply:....so anyway, what is the name of the refinery , and how much did you send??? they seem to be very trust worthy, and I would love to send them my gold. What was the purity of your gold??? What kind of gold?? was it placer gold that you mined?? or was it a bunch of rings and such??? Ya know, its kind of funny, I could not even get a quote on a Mellon MTAu 120 volt furnace I found advertised here at the forum. Would you happen to know how much those cost?? Anyway, I might keep my gold,and shut it down. I went out there to find gold,,,I learned because I did the work, and now I know. I found gold and I was a success. 40 grams of what I got, took me 65 hours and then some. Half the summer that it took me to wash classify and dry the sand, is NOT counted in the 65 hrs. I was was born and live in a city that was built on gold minning before the oil boom came along.
Some areas and streets are named after former gold prospecters of the past, so I did not have to go very far to find it.
