I had been informed with a friend who used-to own an area Pawnshop that Garfield Refinery was a reliable spot to deliver your scrap platinum to for changing to money. I'd previously obtained my gold to some nearby pawnshop and was informed they'd spend $11.00 a g for 14-Karat gold. I named Garfield Refining Company, plus they stated they'd spend me $16.21 per g to people for 14-Karat gold AFTER their little improving charge. I had been very happy to observe they'd spend that much. I examined my platinum, considered it, and determined I'd AT-LEAST $856.00 value of gold based on their estimate, and that I also submitted more than 2 lbs of silver (by having an estimated worth of $400.00). Once the check came, it had been for $302.00!!
I quickly called, and was informed it'd be TWO TIMES before they might draw my info to determine if there is an error. I had been also informed 'Probably The products you believed were platinum were really goldplated.' Again, all this platinum was examined twice on my own and also the nearby pawnshop before delivering it in! While this did not function, they explained possibly they might attempt to provide me a much better PRESENT two times from today! I had been also informed 'maybe you must have incorporated reveal listing of that which you delivered us and that which you had been already provided for that products... in this way, we're able to see if our organization might complement or defeat that estimate.' *I told them I had been cited $16.21 per g by THEIR organization BEFORE giving it in! * Their 'comprehensive statement' accompanying the check mentioned 'Platinum—$165.00; Silver—$137.00.' No specifics for example loads, any low-precious materials discovered, etc. I requested them about the telephone 'just how much did my materials consider?' They'd NOT tell me! I simply told them I had been delivering the check back again to them. They nevertheless attempted to obtain me to hold back till two nights later (this could have created me move the 10-day promise day, and automagically, I'd have experienced no option but to consider the $302.00!)
I returned the check, and obtained melted blobs of what 'appears' like silver and gold. Today I've no idea what proportion of platinum vs alloy I've, or what proportion of gold vs metal! What on the planet may I do with this particular today! Deliver it down to a different refinery??? I DON'T BELIEVE SO! I'd have already been better-off to possess held my platinum and offered it locally. I'm happy of 1 factor... That I don't fit in with a business who reaps their benefits by preying about the aged and people who seriously require anything agreed to them. If that is what it requires for the corporation to obtain forward in existence, I actually donot observe how they are able to rest during the night understanding that everything returns for them ultimately.
