First time selling any of my gold. Got a box full of silver. Sent a very few broken rings to ARAGold. Got my check and stones back today, better than
three grand. I have a lot more gold, but keeping it to get that midas feeling every once in a while. If I kept what I ahve given my daughter and my mate,
I'd be in clover.

Sandman, Here's the settlement I got a couple hours ago. I don't necessarily think you or
any one should sell to ARA, they might get too much product and lower the pay out.

Rocky, I wish. I have quite a bit of gold left and a lot of silver. I'm in Washington State and it isn't as plentiful as Florida and like States.
I sent in a few broken rings and such with missing stones and a small 18k bangle. The payout surprised me. While we are on the subject,
do yu guys clean your silver before you sell it?

It is a little over 3.66 ozs of gold, very nice payout! :icon_thumright:

I will admit I dont understand your invoice rehless , as it appears it was pure gold you sent in .since they paid you full price of gold or at 24K

I did not weigh my gold before I sent it, nor did I separate the different karats.
I sent a small amount of what I have. One point I am trying to make is the 98%
payout versus the 95% Midwest pays. I think I am going to tumble my silver and
send it in. I have a couple pounds. Good luck, guys.

Yes, but did they charge you any "fee's"?
Midwest states that they do not charge any fee's, but other refiners do.... "who can stay in business only making 1 or 2%" is the point they make...
