"Hey guys, I'm new here." "I just bought this great kit to refine gold, but it don't work". "What do I do now?" "Can you give me detailed steps to fix this?" :roll: :twisted:

I saw this, and just couldn't help but post it here.

I really hope this isn't one of our members...

I'm really curious to see what is said about this, it looks like the person selling it made no attempt to make whatever it is, actually look like gold.

"quote"3 troy oz of 5x filtered, aqua regia washed & reconstituted nanoparticulate gold dust. This gold dust was gold wheel & water wheel filtered using deionized water, then dissolved in aqua regia and reconstituted with sodium metabisulfate under aseptic laboratory conditions. The gold is so fine, it almost feels greasy, like graphite dust between your fingertips, let looks every bit the part of shimmering genuine gold."quote"

sodium metabisulfate? looks the part of shimmering GENUINE gold? :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol: some one is going to get their heart and wallet broke.

Seems to me he has taken the gold plated and gold fill items he purchased a month ago and ground them together with the vial of gold flakes he also bought and somehow thinks he is gonna fool someone into thinkin he has 3 ounces of gold dust. Atleast all the weights add up pretty close. Just my opinion.

It looks like its on the floor in the basement?

I think the picture used to describe what is up for bid looks like what this auction really is :lol:

I wrote him and this is what I got.

Dear maynman1751,

I melt down MASSIVE amounts of scrap in AR, then process that into gold dust. Like tons. Depending on the origin of said scrap, some is more valuable than others, i.e., I make money in scads by buying what some guy has no idea the plate value and melting it down. I also teach classes on how to do this, and it's nice to have that stuff laying around for which I can calculate a precise value of gold mass that should precipitate under ideal conditions.

Mind you, I also prospect my own ore and gold locally and process and sell that as well. That dust derives from maybe 20 lbs of extremely high grade ore. Of which I have 20+ tons. In order to process that much ore, you need a lot of chemicals, which cost money. So, I sell some dust, sell some ore, buy my chemicals, make a few pounds of gold, smelt it, cash it, and onto the next batch.

 

[its-all-a-lie]

And this person is teaching classes on how to do this? :shock:

Yup get your "Golden Cookie" here! Well I hope someone got a deal but I doubt it. Believed to be 10K? Not guaranteed gold? Gold plated and solid gold pieces melted together and "somewhat refined by hand"?

And then the manufacturer seems to keep the scale on the GT3000 tester he used some national secret unless you own one. The only place it seems to appear is on a label on the meter itself. The owners manual online doesn't show it and is generally useless in accessing the tester's capabilities or accuracy. I'd be mad if I actually bought one and got that little bit of fluff as an owner's manual. Anyway from what little I can see in the only pictures I can find online, the meter scale appears to show that 397 is only 8k or maybe 9k depending on color?

What is creepy is that I remember reading something very similar to this, somewhere, and I cannot remember if it was on eBay, this forum or somewhere else.

I see homelessness in this guy's future... Unless some fool thinks $20,000 worth of (reputed) 24K gold for $30,000 is a good deal?

If he has all these ounces of gold why is he losing his house? :roll: :roll: :roll:

 

[qst42know]

He likely bought all of them on eBay. :twisted:
