14k from 386's ? How did you end up with 14k? In my experience....it just does not work like that. How were they processed? Something is not right ....
By the way 5.2 oz troy of 14k is worth $5200 dollars US at today's market.
I am calling BS here Nothing makes sense. Is it just me??
Smack said:It would be a whole lot better all the way around if you would just post a file of the assay/report from the "refiner". By the way the implication that you are the teacher here is beyond comprehension. Your throwing numbers at us that none of us has ever seen processing the same type of material and you expect us to just take you at your word? Never heard of not even a hobbyist processing the types of material you mention and mixing them together, why would you mix these kind of metals together unless you were making dore bars. I would look for a different refiner. This is not meant to offend you in any way, but if you are, you should move past it and show us the facts. If you can't provide the facts then it's safe to assume we will all move past this thing.
here is some of the phone boards that i sent off to get that money!! and there is no copper under the solder mask like most boards the types of phones i have found are all gold on them both sides, no copper or tin just gold and fiberglass, i bet you have not seen any of these that are all gold, so here thay are . and when i tell you what thay came out of you will explode ! thay are in the cheapest phone you can buy!jimdoc said:kevinlb63 said:last month i sent off 200 boards and got back 1.100.00 the the check was for 19 grams of gold from the 200 boards so i thought i could do it my self and make more than that.
I highly doubt that. What type of phones were they?
Can you post pictures of the ones you have now if they are similar?

Reread my post! I didn't say that 14K was 66%. I said that, assuming the buttons were really 14K, you only received 66% of the total gold value when you sold it. Buyers in my home town don't pay much either. That's why I would never sell anything here. For $1300 more, I would drive 100 miles, one way. No one is lying to you and I resent your saying it. I, as the others, are trying to help you with the truth. I've not once seen anyone here intentionally lie to anyone. You screwed up and you're making excuses for it. However, screwing up is often a good learning experience. Hopefully you'll know better next time.kevinlb63 said:14k is 58% not 66% and like i said i was tould to put the silver in it i used two silver dollors and three silver dimes. in the mix and was tould that it would clean the gold ! well it just lowerd the karate 14k is going for $20.00 a gram right now. pure gold is going for $57.00 a gram. next time i do it i hope who every is helping me dont lie to me just for the fun of it i am trying to learn. and i will say this again thay are paying $20.00 a gram for 14k at all pawn shops i live in nc and called all in my area and it was the same 20.00 so i did ok. where did you get that 14k was 66% pure? that info is wrong. pure gold is 57.00 a gram x 31=$1.767.00
