A good friend of mine discovered my name in this Ripoff Report website. When I read it, I was shocked and dumbfounded. I categorically state that I have never exercised such a plan, or when instituted by my former employer, Goldline that I was not even remotely interested in or associated with this type of plan because I couldn't see the benefits of its use. Even though this reference to my name was dated 3 years ago I am in complete and utter shock. Perhaps this was created by a Goldline employee, someone suffering sour grapes. I have no recall of a George from Washington, but that doesn't matter. What matters is that I am accused of unscrupulous acts and this is NOT TRUE!! My clients, while at Goldline were happy and pleased with my work, my integrity and my honesty. I NEVER received complaints about my presentations and I never misrepresented the company I worked for. For one thing Goldline strictly monitored each & every agent and their phone calls. Be sure, management was aware of everything that was said and done by all of their agents. The type of deal George is talking about, is a type of credit plan Goldline was trying out, similar to a leveraging plan. But I was never interested in this type of deal and never implemented its use. About the time Goldline instituted this plan, I left the company. But the important thing here is that I did not pursue these types of trades at all! I worked for Goldline for 51/2 months. I left in August of 2006 on good terms. The reason I left Goldline, was that their prices were way too high for my clients to achieve a profit on their investments in a reasonable, timely way. At the same time I left, several other brokers also left. I'm sure this made the company management very angry. I went directly to work for another precious metals company, where I am still employed. I continue today to enjoy great relationships with my clients that are ongoing and mutually beneficial and rewarding. I would like Ripoff Report to remove my name from this scurrilous report, because it harms me and my reputation. I INVITE George from Washington (if he does exist) to contact me. I'm not in hiding, I'm not un-listed. I'd be more than happy to discuss this and get to the truth. D. Weishaar

I was contacted personally by Mr. Joe Battaglia and Lisa weedman, director of business affairs at Goldline, and both were very cordial and understanding about the trade details of the brokers. In conclusion I came to the decision that Goldline was not privy to the facts that were discussed with me by the brokers and that the entire facts were in deed a lie that was made up by the brokers just to make a sale on a very unsuspecting and new client especially to trading in precious metals and coins. The company cancellled the trade and has made good on their word to me and I am writing here to tell anyone who is thinking about purchasing precious metals to contact Goldline, a company who has been in business for over 40 years. I will continue to be a good customer of Goldline and will deal with Lisa Weedman and this company in my future purchases of precious metals. They are an outstanding company. It is too bad that there are in this or any other business brokers that will tell you anything to make a sale. I am saying here if you are contacted by a David Weishaar or a Joe Jagger about trading in precious metals or coins---RUN--as fast as you can. Check pout these two, because they will easily end up with your hard earned money in their pockets Thanks to Goldline and their outstanding reputation for honesty and integrity in business. I would recommend this company to anyone.

I was contacted today at 3PM PST by Mr. Joe Battaglia, Chief Market anylast for Goldline International, along with Lisa Weidman, and another executive for Goldline and an agreement was made to speak with Lisa Weidman on Monday the 25th of September regarding this precious metals trade with the company. I will update the site with the results of the conversation and the results therein on Monday.
