Take it for what it's worth, not too many here refine their own but there is some very good ones that do.
The reason we don't do too much talking about it here is we don't want a new person coming on here, do a little reading about refining such and such and hurting themselves or family or possibly dying in the process. Not to mention the horrendous fines if a neighbor decided to turn you in. (not directed at you personally)
We have a few members here that also belong to The gold refining forum. There is a lot of rip-off's around buying
escrap or gold items but they are not tolerated here. A lot of times you can Google the questionable company and find complaints about them. Our buyers have their atta-boy's listed down below their ad and any complaints or glitches also.
I personally do what they call "turn and burn". I get
ewaste, break it down to all the valuable pieces and ship to my favorite buyers, take the money received and acquire more. That way the buyer takes most of the risk when or if the price would suddenly drop.
Good luck with whatever you decide, but welcome to our forum anyway. Here you will find a university full of info, tips, and everything connected to scrapping/recycling/reuse.
