    I clearly remember him posting that if you send your stuff off to a refiner without being an 'insider' that you WILL get ripped off. Pure & simple. He said that you need a broker watching every step of the process and if you don't cross every T & dot every I, you might even end up OWING the refiner at the end of the deal.

    Eff that.

    I have a decent buyer here in DFW, and if I get enough of a particular item, I know a guy in Colorado & another one in Ohio that have always done me right.

    I read quite a bit of the old posts, that's why I do not start many threads, my questions have been answered. I just keep reading. I do what I recommend quite a bit. No hypocrite here.

    Happy reading.
