cash for gold
An article regarding a certain company that buys your gold off you. You may have seen the adverts recently and thought 'hmm'.
Well read the article and pass the info on to others. http://consumerist.com/5349663/the-a...nt-you-to-read Ste. |

Re: cash for gold
The kind of people who think a company that spends a shed load of money on TV advertising is gonna also give them top rates for gold or cars or anything is also the kind of person who deserves to get ripped off imo.
People who believe things cos "its on the telly" have about as much intelligence as your average garden slug, if not less and need to watch this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTN3s2iVKKI and educate themselves.

Re: cash for gold
No surprises there then- a company with so much to hide trying to keep the secrets between their grubby fingers.
Alarm bells ring every time I see an advert like they run- whether it's for accident claims, unsecured loans or anything- praying on the gullible and the desperate. Evil indeed. |

Re: cash for gold
This is the least surprising thing I've ever read. "Send us some gold and we'll send you what we think it's worth". Um... No.
On the other hand, it's good to see MC Hammer's still getting work.
