Hello everyone,
This is my first post on this forum and wanted to introduce myself. I'm going through and reading as many topics and postings as I can to become acquainted with everyones' interests. I can tell that the members of this forum are serious about refining and dealing with honest individuals and companies.
I represent one of the largest gold refiners in the United States, and we're interested in buying your gold. I have only found one reference to our company on this board, which doesn't surprise me. It has only been within the past year or so that we have been buying scrap gold from individuals and smaller scale operations. Our company has been in business for 30 years, and refines and recycles materials from the Jewelry, Mining, Electronic, and Industrial sectors.
I have read that some of you have had terrible dealings with some "refiners", and it would be my goal to ensure that you have a positive experience with our company. There are only a handful of real refiners in the US, and most places that claim to be refiners are still merely middlemen.
Without knowing how much gold someone wants to sell, we will pay 95% for gold scrap - we will even pay for your shipping and insurance to send it to our offices.
For amounts under 1500dwt we would purchase it "over the counter". Meaning we will weigh the gold, acid test all of it, and send you a check (or bankwire, or other payment options, etc). The gold price would be based on the 2nd London (PM) price the day after we receive the material (unless prior arrangements are made), and would have payment back out to you within a few days of that.
For amounts over 1500dwt, we would purchase it on a melt/assay basis. The gold is melted down, a molten pin sample is taken, and then either a fire or xrf assay is performed to determine gold content. This takes an extra day or two.
We can pay a higher percentage for amounts over 1500dwt on a melt/assay basis - larger volume shipments make a difference.
For those of you who are refining your own gold, we would need to perform an assay on your bar to determine its actual purity before issuing final payment.
Again, I know that this is my first post here, and might be met with some skepticism. I would be happy to address any questions or concerns that anyone may have.
Best Regards,
Matthew
