Gold Buying Course

SA Gold Traders

New Member
Hello All, I am thinking of running a Gold Buyers course giving my knowledge of 26 years as a jeweller, gold buyer and Perth Mint Distributor

Will be running Course in Adelaide , will supply basic tools for buying, topics include all facets of the trade from spotting fakes to using XRF machines, how to make income long after the last buy.
selling on gumtree and ebay, setting gold buy price, secrets of jewellery mark-ups, watches, gem stones and much more. Special calculation software included.

included will be student only access to closed website where you can ask questions so you will be in business for your self not buy yourself.

I want to help people pay themselves what they are worth not what some one thinks they are worth.

let me know if you think this would be worth running

It will be an intense 12 hour 1 day course

let me know your feedback
 
Sounds like a fantastic opportunity to learn the inside tips and tricks of the trade. Love to hear more details.
 
Depending on the cost, I might be interested in attending
It would have to be on a weekend though I imagine.
 
yes there will be breaks , was planning to offer two options basic course $800.00 1/2 day and specialist course including XRF training and all facets on industry including topics refining... specialist course will include every piece of knowledge a 26 year industry specialist can give.
 
$800 for half a day ? ...holy moley !!! .Im not sure any 4 hour seminar in the world is worth even half of that
 
how much is the tools costs ? knowledge without tools are useless right ?

chemicals have their own shelf life as well... ?
 
Basic tool including fresh acids , touch stones , pliers , files, stone trays, loups job packets, tubs
all european tools not asian rubbish
worth $220. inc GST
 
Sounds great I am very interested in the course.
Could you give us a couple of teasers?.... I am keen
Are the XRF machines dangerous? are heard they are radio active and that the training is provided by a certified trainer? I still want to have kids:)
I am very curious I have seen many gold buyer sites that are paying spot, golddiggers in SA, the Colombian in the CBD for example, how can you make money buying gold at or over spot?
I sold our old bunk bed on gumtree, is it really possible to trade gold safely on these free classified sites? makes me nervous meeting strangers in public.
Do we get certificates to say we have completed the course to say we are competent qualified precious metal traders?
Thanks

good old Caesar...the brother of alex and julian from melbourne(know them well)
 
Complain all you want about $800 for a single day 12 hour course. My industry demands I constantly take $2500 single day courses that usually involve a $500 refresher every few years.

Look at some single day accounting or engineering courses. They probably all run in the realm of $800 for continuing professional development.

Honestly, this is something I'd be interested in. Please PM me with further info.
 
Just over a kg of silver for all this knowledge, worth it, especially if there are course notes and such provided because it would be alot to take in for one day, i agree with Baron would be better over two days but i would be interested anyway....

That's nothing for inside information if you seriously want to be in the trade.
Professional advice in most fields usually runs into the hundreds of dollars an hour. Heck, even my accountant charges that much.
