The Best of Ebay

[butcher]

optimisjoe, welcome to the forum, from my veiw it seems you want to do what is right. and your bussiness will be helped by that.

many times the prices are much higher than value for Escrap on ebay, and deception seems rampant, so you can understand the heat here from this group, also honesty is important, a seemingly rare thing when dealing with values we are lucky to have here a group like this on the forum.

do not take this first impression of us to the bank, stick around, this is a great bunch to learn from, refining or not.

Do everything you can to not read between any lines here. The knowlegde found here is worth a 1000 times more than any comment you might feel upset about. One year ago I knew next to nothing about gold refining from e-scrap but after comments, guidance, slaps on the wrists, good and bad attitudes ( I hold no grudges), it has made me what I know and do. I owe 90% of what I know about how to make money with electronic waste to every single person who has posted on this forum.
Just felt I had to say that to you.

Look at his feed back as a seller.
Then look at the items he bought as a buyer.

 

[TXWolfie]

ok I had alot to say about that fleabay but it was too lengthy.

 

[Anonymous]

Holy cow.I never took the time to look at it.Of course looking at that baggie,we all know what it is,but to see that he actually bought 200 grams of flake 9 days ago,and he just HAPPENS to have 200 grams of plating from those 2015 boards that him and his daughter stripped...... :shock: Something needs to be done about this.

Here is an item of interest

http://www.ebay.com/itm/360403863601?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

clearly marked 925 - but it is gold plate over base metal.

The Ebay seller claimed that it was purchased from Home Shopping Network.

The Ebay buyer got a full refund including shipping.

The Ebay seller claimed that HSN was contacted and is issuing a full refund for the original cost of the items.

Many Ebay sellers of gold & silver go by the marking on the piece only.

But some are experienced sellers who carefully check each piece and sell a great product every time.

Bargain...only 50% over spot.

 

[micronationcreation]

The seller must have a time machine too. (is that one of kadriver's?)

 

[Claudie]

Five years ago, hmm. Why would saying that make it more valuable? Maybe someone should explain to him that the serial number is also the date it was made... :|

 

[Gold]

i explained to him the serial number he refers to is actually the date it was poured and he should not lie about when and or where he acquired his items because there is plenty of that on ebay already. still waiting for the reply, nothing yet.

 

[Gold]

the seller of kadrivers bar never replied to my message asking him why he would lie about how long he had this bar but he has ended the auction, revised the listing and relisted it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/5-TROY-OZ-999-FINE-SiLVER-RARE-POURED-LOAF-BAR-w-One-KIND-Serial-Stamped-/110770634005?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19ca71bd15

 

[Claudie]

I also asked him why he claimed it was 5 years old when the date was in the serial number :|
Maybe he is starting to feel silly now with this many people telling him that he has been caught in a lie....
I am still kind of wondering why he thinks it is so rare. :roll:

 

[butcher]

The bar is art work, like jewelry, and it seems its price is reflecting that.
