Hi, depends upon cell phone mfgr. Yes, there's money it this, but it shouldn't be news to you. I've been reporting same here and on my website since Nov 27, 1989 when I wrote and shipped the first copy of my You can do this, too, book, testor and sample baggie to get started!!!

One of my business associates here in my local area, CLEARED 7+ plus last year in this gold recycling biz.ººº Hope that's inspirational!

O/49r

ººº All that this Jim dude processes is "thin plated" gold, regardless of substrate.(<----a follow-up comment to Richard's accurate note)
