    Yea mate, not looking good for you.

    From my experience 9 or 18-carat gold should not be looking like that just from wear.

    You haven't by any chance cleaned them with chemicals or acids?, as that's the only other explanation I could think of for looking like that.

    If not then get them scanned and take it from there.

    gotta be acid test on ring…but quite hard to clean…more likely polishing it deep to the ring….someone can correct me on this.

    So it is one of the rings I sold you.
    It's bad casting .
    As per usual you go off half cocked .
    If you bothered to ask me first I " might" have got it recast for you .
    I'll never deal with you again .
    EVERY transaction with you has been a ball breaker .

    Spanner you are so cheap,nasty and petty i paid $20 and asked politely for sod...u sent normal post as a petty fk you to me, you have no respect and look down on people, clearly evidenced by your hating on "newbie flippers" etc. Bought off bullion network...if known was you id be straight up n mention it or rather you by your shoddy piss weak merchandise reflecting a garbage attitude. So u freely admit bad casting? And such a generous offer to fix your blatant fk up...so gracious sir. So its just trash worksmanship hey mate? Or is it gold plated shit worksmanship

    Yeah bad casting .
    I owned up to my mistake .
    How am I suppose to fix it ? I didn't make it .
    The jeweller would gladly recast it for free .
    But I don't want to deal with you ever again .

    So you are a man good to know, wouldnt want to misgender you Long as its solid gold as stated...most people would fix something instead of leaving cracks and imperfections, i msgd and dealt with bullion network was unaware was you but regardless your "work" speaks for its self.No more trades between us My pleasure mate, done deal ;) Could admin please close thread when convenient
