    Good question. I did not do the math. Looks like he got what he paid for.image

    Pawn shop guy did not get suspicious until after he bought 866 bars?

    sometimes it is difficult to feel bad for the victim. But... he is the victim, and I do hope the person selling the fakes does get caught.

    Yep... seems the buyer was greed motivated and not intelligence based.... Cheers, RickO
