Sure your math is correct (well except for you saying that gold is 1475/pound, i'll buy a pound of gold from you for $1475!!!) , but it differs from my results and math. Like I've said in other posts, i'm no expert, I've processed about 7 pounds of fingers now, and I definitely do not average 1.8 grams per pound. I average closer to 1.1 to 1.2 grams per pound. I bought a few pounds from members on here, I processed a pound myself (cutting them, etc), and i bought the rest of off ebay.
And yes, I'm not an idiot, i'm not asking someone to sell me their $20 bill for $15. This post was more targetted (like you said) towards the e-scrapers that don't want to play with acids, or who live in the communities where they can't/won't.
Unlike other people on ebay, I will not pay $100 for a pound of gold fingers that I might get $70 worth of gold for. If I wanted to spend $100 and get gold, I would buy $100 worth of already processed gold and save the work, etc.
My math (simplified) in case you were wondering:
1473 / 31 = $47.50 per gram
60 / 47.50 = 1.26 grams per pound of fingers (this is what i'm hoping to beat but i'm not planning on it).
My last part of my post was that I have brand new computer parts, SSD's, notebook hard drives, RAM, etc. that I would be willing to trade for fingers. Of course I wouldn't expect a dollar for dollar on the trade so that would go in someones favor as well.
Sucks when you try not to come across as a jerk, and then make mistakes in your post...
