This has happened twice now. Never again
Well I just opened 5 1/2 lb. little bags.
I have had decent results two months ago with a first purchase.
However tonight with very careful inspection, run thru sluice 3 times and with ea. Bag I expected a little. But only one bag had a picker and two bags had a tiny tiny amt of flour.
This experience is going to shut down my endeavor of buying gold paydirt. Tonight, my emotions will interfere with my choice of words.
It was not an insignificant amount of money spent.
I have now opened ten vendors paydirt.
Several were $100+ and six were smaller bags, all different.
Your claims and reviews suggest a good experience.
Sadly that wasn’t even close.
I consider myself to be good on finding gold in the use of panning gold.
What happened?
I received 5 bags, expecting one to hold 3x normal as claimed in your advertising.
I spent two hours and ran it thru my sluice three time. One tablespoon at a time.
I can’t even take a picture because there’s so little to see in my sniffer bottle.
Quite frankly, I wondered if you have an unhappy employee whose creativity snags some gold destined for customers.
Your reviews are solid. I have purchased over 26 bags from 8 vendors.
Two of them had nothing.
I made sure I complimented those products who at least allowed a little yellow gold bits.
But 5 bags of dirt and only one who could be tiny flakes and one picker found with tweezers, and then sent thru my 4 foot sluice 3 times to zilch.
