    It's disgusting they get you in the purity rate like that..marked as 750 and it's really,70% or (insert whatever false amount)..😤.

      Yes! Exactly right, we see people get way more "inventive" these days to steal money from other people and this is just one more way, but I'm sure they (who are stealing) have done this for generations and thousands of years, it's just now we have the "know how" and the tools to know more.

    So if something isn't 24 k gold the part that isnt gold could be magnetic and on the other hand the whole thing could be brass which is also not magnetic. Brass is also very resistant to corrosion so tooth paste or vinegar wont phase it.

      Yes that's correct, based on what I know.

    Ty for the video..a women approached me today at Goodwill with 2 gold pieces marked 18K and wanted 200$..luckily I had no cash to fall for her scam

      That is truly lucky, in many cases they will not even ask for the full price of gold maybe 50 to 70% so that's how you know it's definitely a scam

    • @ThriftingWealth
      @ThriftingWealth  Рік тому +1

      Gold is not magnetic 🧲 so it would not stick to the magnet, but the ring is marked as gold so therefore it's a fake, don't you agree?

    Awesome video. I like how you mentioned Chinese 24kt 999 gold. Lots of ignorant people think just because the gold is so shiny and yellow that it is fake. They’ve just never seen pure gold refined like that

    • @ThriftingWealth
      @ThriftingWealth  7 місяців тому

      Hi, yes that is correct. Most people in NA are going for the 14k some will be good for 18k and very few will have 20k+, based on what I have seen most printed from Asia and China will go for a minimum of 18k+ but best will be considered as 20k+ and 22k+ so yeah.

    I bought one of these off a non English girl at a petrol station. She wanted a £10 for petrol. This was 10 years ago or more, when the buy your gold envelopes where coming through the post. So I didn’t have £10. But feeling sorry for her I offered £5 which I kept in back of phone for emergency. It was like yours but bigger and heavier, can’t remember exact weight but if real would be worth £300 I later discovered. Gave it to wife to take to stall in town that buys gold. Verdict - fake. So a little jewellers had just opened out of town, so for a laugh I took it on Saturday. Saw the wife. She weighed it and offered me £150. But didn’t have any money at the time, could I come back when her husband was there. So the next Saturday I went in, very nervous, bloke weighed it, said ok, gave me £150.
