Affiliate Marketing Secrets

So I’m considering selling some of my old silver scrap lying around for a bit of extra cash, but I don’t want to get ripped off or gouged. I know anyone who buys precious metals go by the market spot price on any given metal so I checked the spot price on silver when the market closed today and it was going for $30.40 per ounce. I know that metal weights are different in that they use troy ounces (31.1 grams) and I did the math and sterling silver is going for $0.98 cents per gram. So I decided to weigh my silver… turns out I have 981.6 grams of sterling silver which adds up to 31.56 troy ounces, which with a little math applied means it’s worth, based on the spot price which I know can change hourly, about $961.95. That’s a nice chunk of change. So now my actual and very important question: how much or what percentage or what cut (however you want to phrase it) do the buyers usually take? It seems to be a closely guarded secret and varies significantly from place to place. I know that the buyer has to pay for the refining if the metal has any extra allowing, like solder, but trying to offer me $40.00 for 6.07 troy ounces of silver (about $185.00) worth of refined sterling silver a few months ago when the spot price was roughly the same seems like an outright blasphemous rip off of more than 50% of it’s worth. I forgot to mention that I’m a jeweler so you can bet I didn’t sell my silver for $40 bucks. Scandalous. What’s the decent industry standard deduction for selling precious metals? Thanks in advance!

I know a bit about it like…write what you know,(find your niche), they are simple and sometimes free to set up (Blogger, Tumblr, ectr) ,you can make money thru advertising like AdSense, AdGenta, Text Link Ads or thru affiliate programs , Im not going to get rich overnight or maybe never , it can take alot of work to be successful
What Im looking for is a website that can teach me the basics for beginners, I googled ” blogging for beginners free” and was OVERWHELMED by the number of responses. So.can anyone recommend a beginner friendly website that teaches step by step tutorial style for blogging?
Please no haters or judgmental people need answer
Thanks in Advance

My boyfriend “recently” bought me an Advent Modena M100 Blue laptop, on the box and the little sticky label that is on the corner of the laptop is states it is a dual core. Plus, it says it is a dual core on the websites for this model.
HOWEVER
It is not! My brother has looked at its “underwear” (the secret bits I wouldn’t know how to find) and it clearly says it is a single core.
Why is this? How can Advent get away with lying and misleading like this? If it were not for my brother, I would not even have known this.
How can they market a product as dual core, when it is only working off ONE core, when the vast majority of computer users would not even notice, let alone be able to activate the second one (if that is even possible – my brother thinks not)
Is there anything I can do about this?! It was bought for me christmas last year, so a long time ago, and has gone from slow to ridiculously slow during that time, hence finally getting my brother to look at it for me to see if anything needed fixing. Ideally Id like to complain to Advent and even more ideally get a replacement laptop that at least meets the stated specifications on this one, as those were the specs which were paid for in the first place.
Any advice on what rights I/my boyfriend have, if any? Thanks in advance

I am currently using 3d cart. But have had issues. If you can suggest any ideas I’d appreciate it!
I need more than 30G a month (pref. unlimited)
Integrate with quickbooks
Affiliate/Coupon Promotion capabilities.
Flash capabilities (not necessary)
I know I can get a website designed, but I’m in the middle of starting a business, and growing, and not quite ready for having one built.
thanks in advance!
