These guys claim on their web site that they will buy your e-gold ($20 minimum) and transfer the full value, plus 8%, to an alternative e-currency account you may hold (Paypal, pecunix, WebMoney, etc). I had checked out some other exchangers, and they all wanted a small fee (1 to 3%) subtracted from the full value. So, I decided to try them out by transferring $25 from my e-gold account to theirs, then following up with an e-mail message to alert them of the transfer. I followed their instructions to the letter, and according to their site, the funds would be in my Paypal account within a couple of hours.
Well, I checked my PP account the next morning - no receipt of funds from anyone. I then dialed the phone number listed on their site - turned out to be a FAX # (which was not indicated on the site). From there I sent them another e-mail, which was not answered. It's been a week, and still no PP receipt, nor any response from these clowns.
Shoulda known it was a trap. I'm just glad this experience only cost me 25 bucks - I'm sure others were taken for much more, and I feel bad for them. Spread the word - DON'T use Serious Gold Buyers. The only thing they're serious about is taking off with your money!
