<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TGRussell, post: 24707488, member: 149461&quot;]Thank you for the replies. To be clear, JM is for the smelter Johnson Matthey, not JM Bullion.</p><p><br /></p><p>This bar is 6.8mm at its thickest. The bullion wand of the Metalytics requires a minimum thickness of 4.8mm. So, testing the entire area from both sides shows the bar to be good for metal purity. The bar was also sourced from a reputable distributor, though my communications with them regarding this issue have been a bit strained. They have said that they analyze all items taken into inventory for purity and weight. They were unable to give me an exact weight for this bar when taken into inventory, so apparently their records are not that detailed other than if it passes, it goes into inventory. They would/could not tell me the sensitivity of their scale.</p><p><br /></p><p>As the .003 t.oz. equates to under $7 value, and the cost of return shipping (which is on me, according to them) would be substantially more than that especially should it go missing in transit, I guess I will keep it. They were kind enough to waive the $2000 restocking fee as a &quot;one time &#039;courtesy&#039;&quot; though. LOL!</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m still wondering if Johnson Matthey were known to weight adjust these bars by filing, and if it is not out of the realm of possibility for a bar to leave the factory shy by .003 t.oz.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
