Most reputable businesses won't buy melted gold as it could be stolen. Mostly a waste of time as used gold isn't worth much, and unless you have an unlimited supply of dead computers and such you won't have enough to pay for time invested. My Dad had the same idea only it was catalytic converters, you crack them open, three different components... more trouble then it turned out to be worth. Gold is bought and sold by the ounce.
