What do you think? Is it a SCAM?
Very much so. Thank you for the headsup.
yeah i would count this as scam
Do you scam yourself by buying a coffee, tank of gas, lunch, etc etc, for one day of Panning and find nothing?
Defo a scam but a good eye opener
Hope he's legal. Sorry for long text!
Gold and silver are classed as ‘Mines Royal’. This means that in most cases they belong to the Crown. Because of this, if you intend to carry out gold and silver exploration for commercial gain, you should contact The Crown Estate.
You will also need permission from The Crown Estate to take away gold that you may have found or discovered, whatever the method you have used. However, if you find gold through panning it is unlikely that The Crown Estate will grant you permission to take it away.
The Crown Estate may sometimes grant you a lease of Mines Royal within a specific area. However, you will still have to get rights of access to this land from the landowner.
If you want to commercially exploit any Mines Royal, you should contact Wardell Armstrong LLP - The Crown Estate Mineral Agent.
#1 Tip: If they spell "Guaranteed" wrong the paydirt is usually bad
Hahah I almost was going to poke fun at that too
Haha
Or in my case, dyslexic.
😆
I wonder if them spelling “guaranteed” wrong takes away their legal responsibilities for a guarantee/false advertisement
This is why it is important to have people like you around doing the videos that you do. Hobbies are very important to people and scammers such as these are a major deterrent for us hobbyists and the industry as a whole. Thank you Shane for all your effort and great videos.
Some sellers must think that people are excited to find any amount of gold that they're willing to pay almost anything for it. I'll take 10 bags! 😆
So many bad vendors out there just to rip off people it’s crazy 😜 how ya doing my dude?
HEHe JJ
Lol pauly look me up and email me I could make you some paydirt bags like that allllll day 😂😂
Might get some myself just for a giggle😂
@@johnjacobs1625 hey JJ RR
ive seen more gold come from play sand from home depot
I mean...seriously, I actually have. Fr.
Worst part is he actually panned Home Depot sand and found more gold. Mind you he payed $10 dollars. I’d be surprised if they’re still in business after this.
This bag was not 24 euros it was 24 pounds and that is 31.6 dollars so it is even bigger scam than you thought.
Correct- my bad
100% a scam. It cracked me up when you did your normal close up with the wood stick... Then you just threw it down. 😂😂
Was looking at buying a bag of this exact paydirt but had a gut feeling. Contacted the seller to find out the seeded gold is Alaskan. So much for Cornish paydirt. So glad you did this, thank you.
Hi Shane
I live over over the pond in southern England and love watching your videos I find your videos so entertaining and informative and believe you to be a genuine honest guy
I felt obliged to message as I feel so disappointed in a company based not that far from where I live to miss lead and con people out off there hard earned money
I’ve been working 12 hour days...and honestly...crusty rusty makes me a happy girl no matter what 😂
This is Shocking, what a tight arse. puts a bad name on our uk pay dirt suppliers
Shocking, as a paydirt supplier in the U.K. it’s embarrassing to know this is being sold!
Thanks Shane. That was such a small amount of gold that a beginner or even a somewhat experienced panner might not even get any of it. Thanks for exposing products like these.
Finally got round to watching this Shane. Ebay really need to do more to stop these idiots scamming people!!!! I know some Scottish vendors that I have seen many reviews that they do good paydirt! They don’t advertise much so I can point you in the right direction if you want!!
The postal code he's provided on his listing is in Scunthorpe, which a good 350 miles/5 hours away from anywhere in Cornwall... needless to say, none available any more!
Nice how he couldn't spell "Guaranteed " either in the listing and just didn't sound professional. Sounded like a solo guy trying to make some money.
Scunthorpe - the pleb dragged a bucket out of the Humber and flogged it off.
The post code is my address, I acted as third party buying for Shane. I have nothing to do with manufacturing the bags of paydirt.
That's ridiculous, there's a special place for people who scam.
What place?
@@bsvenss2
The bank
People have panned for gold in Cornwall and it has been found while mining, but it has never been mined commercially. By the mid 19th century Devon and Cornwall had became a major copper and tin producing area, with 209,305 tons of ore mined 1885/6. Cornwall boasted over 2,000 mines
Yeah a scam. He didnt lie in his description. He added a few flakes of gold to paydirt that had some flour gold in it. Sad that sellers get away with this though.
Thank for letting everyone see these scams that are out there!
The first time I watched your vids like this and you said “let’s take a look at it in a pan” and then just threw it in there still in the bag it cracked me up cause I was expecting it to be out of the bag, and then you added “nice!” To the sentence, I laughed more than I care to admit…… I need to get out more! 😂😂😂
Sad. Thanks for sharing Shane⚒👍👍
As a UK prospector, I'm absolutely shocked by how much of a scam this is. We have all the Mineral Reconnaissance Reports from the BGS (similar to the USGS) available online and there is places where AU was found. I record all my finds as Unicorn 'AU' Poo, whether it Cornish, Devon, Welsh or Scottish since its darn hard to find (cue link for Kleshs' Scotland trip).
It's fun tho finding a few specks, however its being outdoors in nature that is the true gold... 😁😁😁
Hi. I'm in the UK and pan in Cornwall from time to time. I know people that sell Cornish paydirt, and it's much better than this stuff. This sort of thing damages the reputation of UK gold prospecting and should be called out. Well done!
Man im glad i found your channel because im new to buying paydirt and i know you loose money .but id rather not get ripped off.i appreciate what you do. Thanks. Have a great day
Keepin those shady companies in the light.. thanks, Klesh!
That's just horrible. I think you found more gold in that vintage novelty paydirt from a while back. Thanks for spending your hard earned money to expose scams and help educate people.
These videos helps my keep chilled I like the music when he is panning.
For some time we've known about these scams, particularly the one from Cornwall - where my daughter and I own a farm and a gushing gold-rich river. I report scams whenever, but we already knew of these buggers because word gets around *fast* in our Cornish villages. I'm sorry I'm late to this video, but I only happened upon this tonight. Loved your video anyway. 😊
There’s fudge all gold left in England, they found a root of it on a cliff in Cornwall it was special gold stacked like orchid roots, the mountain rivers in Wales have tiny amounts as do Scotland, England has hardly any mountains and no volcanic areas
Thanks for the heads up, I really appreciate your time to expose these people as the scam it is
you are so awesome for doing this for the little guy!
I bought a beginners paydirt bag from you right now, better to buy from someone you trust :)
I bought a set of panning things like a pan, snuffer bottle and stuff in the beginning of the year and then corona came so I didn´t get any chance to try things out...not that I even know any place to find gold yet. But with this I can practice and learn how to do it.
Thanks for giving us the opportunity to even do this! You rock :)
Got your order all packed up will ship to Sweden tomorrow morning thank you! FYI shipping has been taking a few weeks to Europe and other international areas
@@Kleshyeah, I guess with this pandemic it takes some time :) thanks
A before and after drying/weighing of the whole bag would have been interesting.
The toothpick made me me laugh so hard lol
The famous Cornish Tin Miners were Tin miners for a reason.!! The only Gold they discovered was in California in the 1850s when they introduced their mining skills to the Motherload . No Gold in Cornwall,,,! Awesome channel Shane!
This has saved many UK people interested in gold panning from making an expensive mistake. From your results it looks suspiciously like the only gold in the sample were the few flakes the supplier added. A scam.
This is the problem with home prospecting in the UK, it's either buy rubbish, or get proper gear from the US or Canada and be hit with postage, which tends to double the cost of the paydirt.
Even good sellers over here, which started great with a nice consistency of results with gold between each classifications have become stale, you may get 0.3g or whatever, but, you'll find it all salted in one classification, which doesnt make it very fun.
It is what it is though, you either pay, or you prospect something else, someone mentioned tin, up my way, it is lead... Gold is very rare in the UK, yeah, it's dotted about (Like the Lake District, yep, that one Taylor Swift sang about), but, its still only traces, but generally, because of the size of the UK, any good areas will be commercial, and have permission from the Crown Estate, because silver and gold in the UK is classed as 'Mines Royal', now, he might have salted them laughable larger pieces, but, the flour stuff... Technically, that belongs to the Queen! :D hehehe
EDIT: Cack... Just saw another comment that mentions the same as mine, me bad! :D
Thank u Keshia. Always nice to see ur videos.
SCAM!
Good job man! People like this need to be shut down. Its all good, Karma will get them. Awesome review
Was that a nod to Stevemreinfo1989 I heard? Let's get this out into a pan.... Nice...m'kay.
Nice! 😄 it wasn’t intentional when I first started doing it around episode 17, but then it turned into a thing.
I noticed that as well😂
Thanks for exposing the truth out there Shane!
Good video and I haven't had a chance to tell you
Thank you for your service. It's remembered
Thanks 🙏
That Cornish paydirt is a total RIP OFF thanks for sharing Shane
I admire your thesis on this "paydirt". From everything I've seen, city folks can pan for gold in town if they're willing to pay thru the nose for dirt.
oh yeah... baby making music at 11:30.... so smooth... I come for the gold, but stay for the mellow music...
Ugh. That is horrible. Yup, No amount of "fun" is worth that return. Would love a total review of YOUR recommended paydirt sellers (other than yours).
I agree!
wow, I actually didn't think you would find anything at all, pretty darn close to nothing. Great video, looking forward to the next one.
Sadly the UK market is flooded with scam artists selling gold that is promoted as from the UK but isnt, paydirt like the one you've got that has hardly anything in it and even paydirt that is laced with gold recovered from electronics.
There are a few sellers that give genuine paydirt with a set amount of gold in it so you know you're getting your money's worth. Unfortunately the scam artists give the good sellers a bad name
i am still astonished people can be in business with this type of result.
my bags are 90% + roi. but thats because i mine my gold and process my hard rock ore in neff bowls, instead of buy it and sprinkle it into yard mud.
yea man that was awful.
Great info Shane.... hope all is well in Colorado..... Just ordered a bag of your kleshkrums yesterday..... WooHoo!!!!!!
Ol' Crusty Rusty.. the baking dish of truth!
We need more beginner pay dirt, when will you have it in your shop? I just got interested in panning and watched your videos til 4am! Keep up the good reviews ❤️
Right now
O no that bag suck's fam. sorry for your luck. you'll get it on the next one fam. keep up the hunt. GOLD SQUAD OUT!!!
I'm happy to get these bad ones. If it helps one other person avoid getting ripped off, I'm happy.
@@Klesh lol thank's fam. much AU to you & the Klesh Fam.
Ordered one of your bags buddy! Really looking forward to that rewarding fun!👍😁
Thanks for alerting us to these scamming cowboys.
Awesome video so glad your there sharing the truth and as always teaching at same time all the panning of so much different materials thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
I've been watching your videos for a while now and saw that you went to Roberto Venn! I graduated last year super weird when I came to watch gold panning videos but stumbled upon another RV grad haha.
Hey 👋 yes indeed fall class of 2003
Good job exposing the fakes.
Anyone who knows the Cornish mining history will know that Cornish gold came from the Tin Mines, not the rivers. The legend is that the miners use to collect it from their tin sluices in hollowed out quills. There is a small amount of free gold in the streams but it is very rare. You will pan all day and only find a spot or two. Not in every kilo anywhere.
When your notification is a week late
These videos are all posted on Patreon the day of editing, released just a few minutes ago to the general public
@@Klesh it was a joke
The only gold you find in the U.K. comes from a specific part of the Welsh mountains. It’s hardly mined anymore. So, always remember this.
Seeing this really makes me appreciate the fact that I can literally go down to the creek running in my backyard and find a respectable amount of gold (pulled out about 1.5g just sniping over the course of a few days). Gotta love living in proper gold-bearing country (Australia).
Bummer on the yield.
Since all we learned was the Cornish River doesn't have much gold, I'm going to share some knowledge. You described one classification result as beach sand. Think about a beach environment. Wind and waves provide most of the continuous energy, tides most of the rest. Channels, base conditions, etc react in their own ways, you can figure those out.
Consider a place called Pebble Beach. It's covered with pebbles. Why? The high energy environment washes smaller particles away. This is parallel to Shane using screens to size particles of similar size, and in the pan, the stratification, or layering of less dense ones at the top, more dense with depth.
It's called, hold your breath, sorting.
It's inverse is called grading.
A well-sorted sample contains grains of similar size.
A well-graded sample has a mixture of sizes, and the endpoint sizes, large to small, will further describe.
Now think about a stream. The outer edge of a curve is the high energy environment. Inside, low.
Start thinking about where the gold might settle.
Cheers everyone!
i had amazing luck with lynch mining. bought the reserve xl bag and got 2.1 grams
I can find gold like that here in my front yard . Southern New Mexico just off the Membres river.
You know anywhere around the Albuquerque area? I'm hoping to begin prospecting but I don't even know where to begin
Hey auto been a while good to see you. thanks for sharing klesh see you on the next one👍🏻👊🏻 p.s. maybe add panning tutorial or how to pan to your descriptions to help newer people find the specifics on panning you shared in this particular video. I learned how to pan from yours, Jeff Williams, Dan Hurd, vogus, ect without ever picking up a pan, and when I had my first trip to the field; was able to pan gold my first attempt, and had it mastered to micro specs within a couple hours. so thank you for that😀👊🏻.
Euros are NOT our currency, i'ts GBP (Great British Pounds)
calm down mate, it's not a big deal
Love your videos my dude. You've inspired me to get me and my kids into panning. Thanks for all of your tips and advice!
Glad to hear it!
From Cornwall, theres no gold here, just tin mines which were huge back in the day
I know there is small amounts of gold in that area
@@Klesh yep our right, I used to live a few minutes away from the Cornish gold centre, but if you wanted to do tin prospecting, Cornwall is the place. Great content though man, your videos are super cool
I live in Cornwall we do have gold but very fine. There's a River named redriver it's a direct river from the old crofty mine. It's rich in fine gold
I get my paydirt from Scotland 🏴. Never really get much gold here in the UK. From paydirt. Great heads up form you Shane from this company bro 😎 cheers 🥂. Great video as always.
Good morning Shane & Happy Saturday. Thanks again for another great video as always. 👍🇺🇸
Waiting for you to sneakily buy and review my paydirt just so I can see you sniff a bit of Australia again 😊
😆
I keep seeing this on ebay and being tempted, thanks for biting the bullet and saving me the disappointment.
I was literally just looking at the cornish website the other day and this video popped up on my youtube lol
Just watched you for 1st time. Thanks for the interesting video.
One thing, the guy the pay dirt was from on eBay was approx 350miles away from Cornwall. Think he took the dirt from near to his actual location than from Cornwall.
No it's my address I acted as third party buying from Cornwall. Then sent to shane
I wouldn't go next door near that company. I've just panned a bag of paydirt from goldwise in Scotland ( I know Shane has reviewed this company) they give a minimum guarantee. I got .255g exactly what was guaranteed. Kleshkrums guaranteed the same and I got .275g plus a pick and some gems. 👍 so as Shane says don't go near companies that don't give a guaranteed amount.
Right!
Interesting that the collect in person post code on the listing is from near Scunthorpe - a looooong way from Cornwall
The added water makes it heavier. It should never be wet.
MIGHT BE ABLE TO DO BETTER WITH A 4 DOLLAR BAG OF SAND FROM HOME DEPOT. THANKS FOR THE SHOW ANYWAY KLESH.
50 cents of gold in a $30 bag, that is just sad...
That collection post code (zip code) is not in Cornwall!
Big alarm bell ringing!!
woow , i do realy love when you test the ebay Paydirts, i have meny times thought about to buy but , stoped and than i see you vids,
its clreas a big loos
awsome video
Right up there with scrap electronics for gold on ebay
Seems that Cornish Pay Dirt's mentality is ASMR looped on watching too much Benny (over the) Hill.
Let’s take a look at it in the pan.
*loud Klunk*
Nice!
Never gets old XD
I think I remember seeing you are more likely to find gold from old Roman and Saxon stashes or settlements the natural gold in England
Space Case Paydirt from Ebay looks like it has a bunch of cool stuff in it
Awesome your in Colorado too.
Thanks for the video, i have shared it on my gold facebook page.
Sad that you got scammed BUT I always learn something new and interesting whenever you post a video...
So I call it a win-win!! LOL even a bad day of panning is still a good day!!
Omg I’m so sorry you have experienced something like this how awful I’m from Cornwall would love too know who’s mugging people off I could never dream of providing a bag like that 😟
WOW 😮 that's bad. Thanks for the show.
The only 2 locations in the uk for gold is one place in Scotland and one in Wales
OMG - you'd have Border Force agents storming your house here in Australia if you tried to ship dirt into the country ;) Massive biosecurity risk.
I watch the first episode i see in a few weeks and i'm hooked again
Just a heads up uk doesnt have much gold but our main hotspot is Wales so unless its Welsh I wouldn't buy
I gotta get me a few bags...😆 🤣
As a cornishmen I feel ashamed. Love your videos. Watching from Cornwall UK
I'd like to hear some of these paydirt companies answer for their dirt they send.
seeing as Cornwall is down the road from me this is the first time hearing there is gold there😂😂 deffo a scam
Thanks for the heads up shane
