      1 star
      I sent 17.2 lbs of sterling silver (roughly 7k at that time) to a Mr. Fried. When I thought the weight would be lower, he quoted 6k. What I got was slightly more than 4k. So much for 90% of the market. It was all silver bought from Rio Grande, and a sterling solid silverware set. Fried suggested my miscalculation between normal ounces (16 to a lb.) and troy ounces (14.78 ounces to a pound), which would never account for the difference, of course.|
      I'd left directions in the box sent to call me before settling. He never did. You see, the trick here is when he tells you he already sent a check for $4156, but which I still haven't received in business days, so that 4156 wasn't a cut check yet, but the number given is to make it all seem like a done deal.
      I highly recommend finding a different company to do business with. These are rip-off artists.

      I was impressed by the excellent communication, how much I got for my metals, and the turn around time was also impressive. Would do business with them again, and recommend to anyone looking for this type of service.

      The best to buy or sell silver and precious metals. We've been dealing with them for more than 20 years and always been pleased.
      They're the best!
