It sounds like you need a taser. If you lit a few folks up, I bet they wouldn't be as rowdy in the shop. Or, I do have a double barrel 12 ga with rubber buckshot

I watched Loopers last night and the guys were being paid in silver ingots, would you guys re-smelt that sort of thing or are there restrictions?

We would happily buy it in and melt it. I've made loans on them before. How big were the ingots?
But we don't have to actually melt anything personally. That would be a pain in the ass. We just sell it to the smelters. |

Maybe 2 1/2 x 5 x 3/4?

How much value was that supposed to represent?

One life. It appears to be a literary reference to Judas' thirty pieces of silver. The Loopers live a very fashionable existence in a fallen society. The Loopers execute folks from the future who get in trouble with the mob and are sent back in time for disposal. Those targeted for execution are bound and packaged with an unspecified number of bars (maybe thirty) and sent to a specified time/place for execution. Very interesting movie with (as always) some logical holes created by the timeline alterations. Spoiler: The real fun starts when the Looper pulls gold off the body rather than silver. That means he has just executed himself.

I know the Salvation Army store in Old Greenwich, CT are a great place to pick up extremely valuable antiques for a song, I wonder if there are pawn shops that cater to a better class of pawners?
|
My theory currently is, if the people of the neighborhood can eBay, it will not support a pawn shop.

C'mon UT, how can you deprive these poor people their anti-freeze in this weather. :lol2:
|
How did you know the ring wasn't gold?
