No cash for escrap USA

I recently sent in over a pound of Gold Fingers to cashforelectronicscrapusa. What a mistake. Shipping was free and I couldn't find a va or local (23188) buyer so I took the risk. Guess how much my check was. No really guess. $5 now that's my first sale but that seems awful Do not use them I've seen numerous complaints on other forums.

Wow, what made you choose them?

for reals! how could someone possibly achieve a pound of gold fingers( I expect this means "trimmed) without knowing more about what to do with them? There must be several hours involved in the trimming process alone, why was no more invested in the search for a buyer ?

Thanks Thirdeye for the heads up, and condolences for your loss, but I think you'll find the general consensus here to be you only only have yourself to blame.
You'll find buyers here who will buy the cards you trimmed(at a reduced price from "non-trimmed", but still very competitive) and maybe use that to see just how much a mistake you made

Wishing you better luck in the future

I was referring to "you had to know they were a scam".

it's true mrbill, maybe he didn't know, but he did find them online(i don't think there could be any doubt of that), so he must have done some little bit of research finding them, and if the rest of that post has any truth to it, such as "When you Google there name it comes up with lots of scam warnings.", and I suspect it is, he stopped his research in a very silly place.
I've run into websites and found no warnings at all, and been scammed. Trouble is, after the fact, there is no financial return, there's only sinking more money into the pit trying.
I agree, that is a hard lesson he's learned there, but hopefully it can serve to be a warning to others.

Sorry for you loss Op, make sure you hit the BBB site, an scam sites an put your own review up, an help others avoid this idiots.

Don't think there was any kicking while down, E just doesn't sugar coat it or beat around the bush, like most on here don't.

I almost fell for this scam before finding this forum. Luckly for me I read the compaints on the BBB website before sending anything in. Thank God I found this forum and some good honst buyers.
