Im not going to out anyone at this time but i recently purchased two one pound bags of gold dirt and when they arrived i was very upset and went thru both bags and there was nothing but very fine particles smaller than sand and also very flat flakes Half the size of a pencil eraser and when touched they would disingrate, They were that small nothing to pick up with a tweezer just the tip of your wet finger.I did what i could and put inside a small vial and was so disapointed after looking at nothing.
I called the company and left a detailed voicemail message and was contacted back quickly by a person under the manager and was promised that they were sending two more bags out and were very sorry and i would be very suprised and very happy,Well the order was processed and sat there almost 15 days before shipping and i went to Florida,and was notified that the box was waiting for me to get home, I was so excitied and could not wait for that 800 mile ride home to pan thru what was promised by them to make me very happy.

I was very tired and could not wait to look at what was promised after the first two bags were nothing i got out my pinpointers and went thru both bags and could not get any signal to make sure they were working i cut a staple in half so it would be very small and buired it and all i could get a signal on was the bit of staple, There was nothing inside either dirt gold bag that would register any signal, There were tiny particles and just a few tiny flat small flakes not sure if they were gold very dark and off color,
I left another message and was apoligized a few times they told me that they were suppose to notify the manager prior to shipping and nothing was followed and that does not explain the long delay in shipping my product out to me. Well last week i talked to the same person again and that person was very upset that there people did not follow proper prcedure and i received two more empty bags after being promised how happy i would be,
Well its been seven days and im waiting for UPS to come and im just so hurt that this happens and wonder if because gold has risen could they have people stealing them blindley all of what i was able to recover out of four one pound bags will not fill up the vial close to a quarter way its a 2 inch vial and the product is so small and mixed with alot of sand you cant seperate in the vial i still cant get the pinpointer to emit a sound and i have tried very hard i even cut the staple in half again and it picks it up, A staple half the size of a grain of rice.
The managers assistent has been very nice and right on top of taking care of this problem but there is no gold and someone is getting the product. The next two bags should be here this week im praying.How would others respond and do top companys do this for a reason, IM praying i receive what i was promised because im wanting to invest in highbanker and try other forms of detecting beside beach detecting.
Please will other people explain should i just let it go or do you thing they really are trying hard and the shipping people could be dishonest, The product looks like it has gold but nothing regisiters and the product is so small and when touched discingrates upon touch, I wont out the company because they have been very kind and not evasive, Just please make me happy. ???

Welcome to the world of purchased "pay" dirt. You are better off saving up a little gas and hotel money and driving to the nearest gold bearing state. Im doing it in the spring. These guys will charge $50+ shipping for a 5 lb bag and throw in .00002 gram
