NOW TO THE ORIGINAL REPORT THAT WAS FILED =====================
I sent cash4gold over a pound of silver. (nothing silver plated) They sent me a check for .53 cent. I realize silver is not worth much but when I sent them 14k gold aproximately 17 ounces, they listed on my "payment" as 10k and paid me only $51.00. I immediately called them and explained that it must have been a clerical error since I don't own ANY 10K GOLD. I was told to send the check back and they would return my items. I didn't trust that. Anyone who would make that kind of error should not be in business.
For your sake, please use someone else to get rid of your gold and silver.
