I joined this forum for the sole purpose of replying to this thread.
About 6 months ago,I tried tirelessly to get in contact with this gentleman "Sam".After multiple emails,and phone calls,I finally got to talk to another man there that gave me a price on about 1000 pounds of scrap mobo's that we had available.That price was $.75/lb.(Those of you that deal in E-scrap get the joke there).Several weeks ago,I started trying to get a hold of him again,thanks to the number he provided on this thread.The reasoning for trying to work out a deal with him,was that we have several hundred pounds of scrap ram(all gold),and his location is not too far from our office.So here we are several weeks,several emails,and several phone calls later.......still NO contact AT ALL! I called yet again this afternoon,when the receptionist asked me if I wanted to leave a message.I explained that I have several times,she asked if I wanted to send him an email,I explained that I have several times,and also submitted a quote request through their website,which of course never was responded to.So she asked for my information,and said she would make sure that someone calls me back. A couple of hours later,I receive a call from the "other" man,and he repeated back to me what I had,and asked me if I was delivering it,to which I replied yes.He goes on to say "Well with that large of a volume,and since you are going to be delivering it,the most we could pay you is $6/lb." (Long pause) Has everyone quit laughing yet? Needless to say,after I picked up my jaw off the floor I turned it down.When he asked why,I explained that I already had offers of over double that,to which he replied "well that is the best we can do." A couple of members on here,gave me very reasonable offers,and I appreciate that,but it all came down to shipping,and payout time.I don't want to lose $400 to ship this somewhere,and I am not about to wait a week or longer to get paid for something.When I buy something,it does NOT matter where on earth I buy it from.....I have to pay for it FIRST! Then I get what I paid for.That is how I got scammed from a refinery.
