A guest told us he had found some pure gold and asked if we could sort through and test it. We, of course, said we could, not knowing … He proceeded to bring in a cooler filled with dirt for us to “sort through.” He insisted there was gold in there and talked a sales associate into checking it, saying we could take our time. One of our staff graciously sifted through it to find a tiny amount of pyrite. We called the guest to say we found no gold and only a small amount of pyrite and to please pick up your cooler of dirt. He never returned, and the cooler sat in a corner in the back room for years until we threw it out. Never again! — Katrina Sustachek, Rasmussen Diamonds, Racine, WI
