Find The Line Prospecting 2lb Cons Paydirt Review (eBay Seller) While I normally try to avoid eBay sellers, Find The Line Prospecting is an exception to that rule. He is one of the few eBay sellers who actually has good paydirt and he is a real miner. So this is …

The Review of VA Gold Seeker 2lb Arizona Paydirt: I have to admit I originally was not going to buy any paydirt from VA Gold Seeker. Even though I try to buy and review from as many sellers as I can, their is one thing that scares me. It is when …

The Review of Gold N Badger 2lb Bag Paydirt: While I have previously reviewed this sellers paydirt (GoldNPaydirt) I have wanted to review another bag of paydirt from this seller for a while now. Gold N Badger has been on the top of the list for a while now. Sadly …

The Review of Eureka Joes 2lb Bag Paydirt: I have previously reviewed Eureka Joes and 2lb Taste Of Alaska paydirt. That bag had a score of 8.0 but I did miss grade one item so it probably would have graded out as a 7.9 as well. So before I get …

The Review of Pan More Gold 2lb Bag Paydirt: I have to be honest, I have been holding this 2lb bag from Pan More Gold for a while now. I am not sure why I have sat on it for so long, maybe it was the price, or the lack of …

The Review of GoldBay 3lb Bag Paydirt: GoldBay.com is one of the most requested sellers I get asked to review. It has also been on my own personal top 3 list for some time now. One, okay the main reason I have wanted to review the GoldBay paydirt is the …

The Review of MatHunts1 Contributing to Miners 4oz Bag Paydirt: When I originally saw the listing on eBay for MatHunts1 Contributing to Miners paydirt I thought it was a joke. Well to be honest I thought worse of it, I thought it might be a scam. I mean seriously what …

The Review of US-Karuk 1lb Vancouver Bag Paydirt: I do not know why, but the sellers name US-Karuk has always stuck with me. When ever I am asked about a good seller on eBay my mind always goes to US-Karuk. Now that is not to say his paydirt is the …

The Review of Washington Beach Mining 6oz Bag Paydirt: This was the paydirt I have been craving to pan! The mad man in me was interested in pitting my pan against the Washington Beach Mining black sands. Ever since I first found this seller on eBay I have wanted to …

The Review of Washington Beach Mining 5oz Bag Paydirt: I have been watching and wanting to review a bag of paydirt from Washington Beach Mining for a while now. When I originally added them to my long list of paydirts to buy they only had the regular Cape Disappointment. So …

The Review of ThisThatAndCoins 2oz Bag Paydirt: While I usually try to make my reviews as long as possible, this one will be on the short side. Not because of anything to do with the paydirt from ThisThatAndCoins. It has more to do with the quantity and price. This bag …

The Review of Pay Dirt Gold 1lb Bag Paydirt: Would this bag be a great bag or a bust? That is what I asked myself right before I started panning out the bag of paydirt from PayDirtGold.com. This isn’t something I normally ask myself but Pay Dirt Gold has a …

The Review of eBay seller Find_The_Line_Prospecting 8oz Paydirt: The first thing that you will notice if you purchase this bag is the hand written notice. This isn’t the typical one sentence thank you. Instead Prospector Bob at Find_The_Line_Prospecting writes a long detailed thank you. It is a welcome change to the …

The Review of Kougarok Nome Beach Concentrates Paydirt: I originally saw the Kougarok paydirt on amazon and it has always intrigued me. Like most people I only know about Nome because of the show Bearing Sea Gold. So I really wanted to buy a bag to see what the paydirt …

The Review of Jimbos Gold Extreme Difficulty Paydirt: Scared! That is the first thing that I felt when I originally saw the description of this paydirt. Yet for some bizarre reason I still ordered it. Was I crazy, or just a glutton for punishment? I have no idea, but order …

The Review of Constellation Mining Company Paydirt: It is always great to see an old friend after several years. That is how I felt when I got in my bag of paydirt from Constellation Mining Company. I have panned many a bags of Lyra’s paydirt when I first started and …

The Review of Prospector John 2oz Concentrate Paydirt: After my last two bags of paydirt from Prospector John I was a little worried about this one. Not so much it wouldn’t have gold, but that some how it would still end up disappointing me even if it did. Well guess …

The Review of Prospector John 2lb Raw Tombstone Paydirt: So even after my not so great review of my Prospector John Alaska Paydirt. I was still super excited for this Tombstone paydirt, because it would be something new. Open pit mined crushed ore! That is not something you see listed …

The Review of Prospector John 2lb Raw Alaska Paydirt: This is a review I have been dreading doing for so long. Not because I am not a fan of the paydirt but because Prospector John was the 1st paydirt I ever bought. I stumbled upon his old website one day …

The Review of Prospector Matt 1lb Alaskan Paydirt: Today is my last day trying out the paydirt from Prospector Matt and I did it with his Alaskan paydirt. This by the way is something he no longer carries due to what Matt says was inconsistency problems with the paydirt. I …

The Review of Prospector Matt 1lb Oregon Paydirt: So today I am on my second bag of paydirt from Prospector Matt. Yesterday I prospected in the Virginia paydirt so today decided to prospect in Oregon. I am really hoping I get better results from this Oregon paydirt than I did …

The Review of Prospector Matt 1lb Virginia Paydirt: This week I am going to be doing 3 reviews of paydirt from Prospector Matt who just recently started selling online. I found his website while browsing eBay and emailed him soon after. The customer service I received was wonderful, answering about …

Gold Prospecting at Menards: Well I am sure you have all seen the videos where prospectors check for gold in Home Depot Sand. Recently Klesh Guitars shot a video where he found a speck of gold from a few bags. Something previously done by Jeff Williams and before that by …

The Review of Mikes Gold Paydirt 4oz Bag: After a really busy month I decided I needed something small and easy to start this month with and Mikes Gold Paydirt was just the ticket. Before I start the review I must throw in a small disclaimer or warning. I have previously …

The Review of LynchMining Reserve XL Paydirt: Like all good things, Goldpalooza has to end, but not with out one last review. To close it out in style I chose LynchMining Reserve XL Paydirt. Not only was it my final review of Goldpalooza but it was the first time I …

The Review of LynchMining Black Label Paydirt: A new leader for gold has taken the throne for Goldpalooza month with today’s review of LynchMining Black Label Paydirt. It didn’t give me my best ROI for goldpalooza but I will not complain as I still found a lot and I mean a …

The Review of LynchMining Reserve Paydirt: The gold keeps flowing as I continue my Goldpalooza month with today’s review of LynchMining Reserve Paydirt. While it wasn’t the huge success of my last review, it was not disappointing in the least. I found a lot of gold and had a great …

Equipment I Use – My Gold Pans

The Review of LynchMining Gizmos Supremo Paydirt: The gold Gods finally decided to bless my GoldPalooza with the LynchMining Gizmos Supremo Paydirt. I not only found gold, but I found gold in all the classifications, even the -30 stuff. It reminded me just why it was my favorite out of …

The Review of LynchMining Gizmos Paydirt: Once again I had high hopes for my second review as part of GoldPalooza and LynchMining Gizmos Paydirt. Again it started out with a bang but fizzled out as I got to the bulk of the paydirt. Leaving me once again disappointed and left …

The Review of LynchMining Original Paydirt: I had hoped the start of GoldPalooza would start off with a bang with LynchMining Original Paydirt. Sadly, it ended up really just being a bust! While it did have it’s moments of fun, overall I was really disappointed in this paydirt. It was …

The Review: So I went into this review thinking I knew exactly what I was going to get out of this EZ Pan bag of paydirt from JimbosGold. I mean I just panned out a bag of it the day before. I was expecting a great bag of easy to …

JimbosGold.com 1lb EZ Pan Paydirt Review: Hooray Hooray the sidebar is fixed! After way way too long I finally finished reworking all the old reviews and updating them to the new voting criteria as seen HERE. I also went through all the reviews and made sure all reviews were consistent. …

Ugh….. It seems the hosting company I use has been under a DDOS attack so the my blog has had lots of issues being live. It has also prevented me from logging in to upload pics and write this review. So I won’t waste a lot of time on this …

Well it seems even old dogs can learn new tricks. I learned “NOT” to buy paydirt off eBay with out checking out who the seller actually is. I know a lot of eBay sellers have names that aren’t a perfect match for the paydirt the sell. However it seems my …

A review of SluiceBoy Prospecting Gem Paydirt ***Disclaimer*** This review is my opinion and my results may vary from your results. My bag may have been a bad batch or a great batch, remember no two bags of paydirt are ever the same. So please use common sense when buying …

I was just looking at my videos on YouTube last night trying to think about how to update them all to add ROIs at the end, when I realized how few video I have been putting out lately. So I have ordered more paydirt and will focus on getting out …

As always it has been far too long since my last review. Also as always you can blame my doctors, as they always want me to do this or do that, or go here and get these tests done. Worst is they always want me to come sped hours in …

So as you can tell this review did not get posted the day after the last one as I said it would. In fact it is a few days late. I shot and had the video up on youtube all edited and waiting to be made public, it was all …

Well been a while and much longer than I had intended to get this review up, but good news is I have another review for tomorrow as well. I haven’t had time to update all the old reviews yet, nor really work on the site much but be patient eventually …

I will keep this part short and sweet since second review for the day. This review will be using the new review system as all new reviews will. You can view my video on how all new reviews will be reviewed HERE. Well on to the review and remember to …

To start things off I want to apologize it took me oh so long to put up another review. It hasn’t been because I didn’t want to, but I recently had some medication changes and wanted some time to acclimate to them. So spent a while just chilling with the …

Before I begin today’s review I need to apologize for my camera. It is dying and haven’t had the time or funds to replace yet. Hopefully by my next video review it will be on a new camera. I had had plans to replace it for a while but like …

Well this part is going to be short and sweet since I already said everything I needed to say earlier today. Well on to the review and remember to subscribe to my YouTube channel HERE so as to not miss any of my reviews. The Review: I had so much …

I had hoped to have a more productive month this month but my health decided otherwise. So after spending 2 weeks in and out of doctors offices I finally got some free time to pan out some gold from my stockpile. I even managed to pan 2 bags so another …

I managed to get in another review before the end of the month, so hopefully next month will be just as productive. I still have a stockpile of equipment I need to review as well, I just need the weather to co-operate. I have a few new pans I want …

So as promised a much speedier turn around on a new review. So not only is the new review up my new site review system is up and running with about 95% of all reviews updated to the new rating system. I still need to adjust a few old reviews to …

So managed to get this review up today as promised! I plan on having a lot more videos in a much more timely fashion. I also plan on having the new and improved GoldPaydirtReviews.com finished by the end of the month. I think I am going to do away with …

The Review of Alaskan Gold Diggin Partners Paydirt: Well surprise surprise surprise, this review is late as “always”. I actually got the paydirt finished and had video and everything done in time, but damned life took over and didn’t have time to post this. Plus what free time I had …

As usual, this review is late. I was working on another review and it would have been up on time, but ran into a problem so had to delay that one. Luckily though managed to get another bag of paydirt to review. So while a day late I do have …

As usual, this video is a little late, but I guess a little late is better than never. So I decided to be a glutton for punishment and review 3HorsesPaydirt for the 3rd time. I have previously reviewed him twice before but under his eBay account name (WolfJeff). If you …

WOW! Awesome! Unbelievable! I am so excited today! Not only was today’s gold review a mind churning bag of wow, but I actually got this review up on the 1st. So November is starting off with a bang and hope it continues for the rest of the month. Which will …

Update: Sadly it seems CarolinaPaydirt.com has closed it’s doors. Hopefully they come back as they had a good product. Well thank god October is almost over. It seems while September was the month full of panning that beautiful yellow gold, October is the month of delays and delays. So even though …

Update: Sadly it seems CarolinaPaydirt.com has closed it’s doors. Hopefully they come back as they had a good product. So the moles are gone for now so back to  the regular grind of life. This month is just whizzing by with zero progress with my paydirt. The good news is …

Update: Sadly it seems CarolinaPaydirt.com has closed it’s doors. Hopefully they come back as they had a good product. I apologize for the lateness for this post and review but after 2 weeks of being sick we were attacked by the mole people. Well not actually the Mole people but a …

With Goldpalooza officially over, I need to plan out Octobers reviews. I also plan on updating the website again in October or November once I move hosts. I am going to revamp the FAQ section as it is pretty old and was just done quickly. I also plan on adding …

Update: AMA-Supplies has not sold any paydirt in over a year so moving to no longer sold section. Well Goldpalooza is officially over! The good news is I have more paydirt stockpiled so October should be a good month for reviews as well. I just hope the gold ROI’s are …

Ok I know I am a day late, but good things come to those that wait, lol. I was supposed to post this review yesterday but it was my birthday and didn’t feel like playing with youtube. So spent the day panning some paydirt and working in my shed. I …

Well it is mid September which means it is now half way through Goldpalooza. The good news is I still have a ton of paydirt to review for the rest of this month as well as some paydirt for October as well. I also am going to be adding a …

And GOLDPALOOZA continues! Ok, I know this is probably going to be a very late post as youtube is giving me fits. I’ve been trying to upload my videos for 3 hours now and right when they close to finishing something goes wrong, an error or timeout, ugh. So that is …

GOLDPALOOZA begins! Well I am so excited for this month and all of the paydirt I am going to not only review but run my pans through. My wife really hooked me up with allowing me to spend so much money this month on paydirt so everyone please give a big …

I am running way behind on today’s review but it is finally up and before midnight, lol. I am not sure when my next review will be up but at the latest will have 2 up on Labor Day September 5th. If I have time I will have one up …

This is the beginning of a ton of Gold Paydirt reviews coming to my little blog. Not only do I have this review today, but have another one coming tomorrow. Then In September I plan on having 4 or 5 reviews minimum. I have a stockpile of some paydirt and …

Well the new review is LIVE if not a few days late. The 4th of July weekend made things rough on getting out video on time, but hope everyone had a Great 4th! We had a ton of rain which also made it tough to find time to shoot video. …

Well after a slight delay this months video is up on YouTube. Took me a while to get it up and to find time to pan any gold due to recent storms in Indiana. Had a couple of trees fall in our yard so chainsawing, splitting and burning piles and …

Gold Review Time! It’s been a while sadly but I am back! We have finally moved into our new house in a new state so I can now get back to doing the little things in life I so enjoy like gold panning. With no further waste lets just jump …
