The price was £50 for cash (stripped, polished and anodized)

However they really didn't have much solution left because they said there's not really any call for gold these days.

In short if they was enough stuff to go to them for gold it would be good to buy some fresh dye! About £50/100 minimum order quanity.

I'm happy to work as a go between if there is enough interest but at the moment I would prefer not to share contacts as I don't want anyone to spoil it for me.

Hope you can understand?
