hah..
right up my alley.
I work for the Royal Canadian Mint...we refine and produce the purest/finnest gold available in the world at 99.999% pure.
we don't buy gold from the general public, yet depending on the amount you have your best bet would be to deal with a reputable dealer.
Gold for the purposes of investing:
Border Gold @ 1-888-312-2288 (
www.bordergold.com)
Dillon Gage (broker) 1-800-375-4653 (
www.dillongage.com)
if you're looking to have your gold refined for the purposes of selling these two recomendations will be able to help you out.
Also, do look at
www.kitco.com (1-877-775-4826) lots of very good info here aswell.
You can sell you gold with Kitco however at a premium, yet capitalize on a solid return.
do NOT waste your time with pawnshops/jewelers etc...
cheers,
Ryan
