    Glad you've done a paydirt video, Chris. Looked like you had as much fun making it as it was watching. Wouldn't mind more of the same, please. The final result gram info would be nice (like Klesh does). Great editing, too -- and the vocabulary lesson was....interesting.....

    That's way better than 2 combined bags of paydirt I received from a very popular youtube content creator that rhymes with "tan turd." Hmmm... tan turd also describes his paydirt.

    For some of us, it makes better sense to buy bags of reputable paydirt than to purchase all the equipment, a capable vehicle (gold is rarely close to a paved road), fuel, water, food and everything else that comes with weekend trips to the closest place that MAY give up a little gold. I need to do the maths and see if it makes better sense for me...

    It's way cheaper than driving 2 hours each way to go prospecting for a weekend. Just to get skunked at a new spot. Nice pan ! Looks like it will be definitely worth the road trip.

    Adelong is an ok spot for gold but you have to be careful as you occasionally find a build up of scum on the bank and on rocks where you find gold deposits

    We call buying paydirt in America the dirt sales, because you are mostly just buying dirt that is in a nice package. People like Felix paydirt make two to three times what their gold is worth by selling you dirt.

      So true, unlikely to ever make any profit panning, Gold is the byproduct of a good day or week out enjoying nature panning/ sluicing a creek or two, i just drove 9hrs in the Hilux with a trailer, approx $300 fuel, add car wear and tear food and equipment, expensive hobby sometimes. usually pan between 1 or 2 grams a day to my arms fall off🤣

  • @bjvoorhies
    @bjvoorhies 9 місяців тому +1

    Did you weigh it? What was the shipping? You should add that to the $50. Or was it an Amazon Prime free delivery? Actually even with shipping added and the "gold" being less than 24 carat it's probably cheaper for you than making a gold prospecting road trip (as the guy below pointed out). You can tell it's artificial "paydirt" (if you didn't already know) because there's no "dirt" - just clean washed rocks/sand. Armchair prospecting at its finest. With a remote to change the channel? Convenience is everything in the 21ST Century.
    P.S. I hope YOUR return-on-investment (the income to YOU from UA-cam for this segment) was more than $15+. Sorry. Kinda a snarky comment in general - but I love your prospecting vids. Hope the "like and comment" (subscribed years ago) help that effort. "Best..." as always.
