    In all the years I have sent carpet, polishings, sweeps, and burs,
    bits, cleaning rags, cloths, etc..without clean scrap I have never
    paid such an outrageously high refining fee..maybe you should check
    around..even with the assay charges and over 700 lbs. of studio
    waste ( including even the sludge from the 5 gallon bucket that was
    still damp,) the highest refining charge I have ever seen anyone pay
    in 30 + years is around the 250-300.00 range and shipping was part of
    that outlay.
