I haven't sent anything into ARA yet.
Waiting for the end of the season to see how much silver/gold I get...so far, 0 gold... I did eventually find a nice Mexican Made Silver bracelet, a flat braided necklace and 3 rings..all silver. I also have a necklace I dont wear anymore that is solid silver, 18" long and is probably 1/4" square...so that one would be worth some cash...
Many of the guys/girls on friendly metal detecting forum use ARA. They seem to be very reputable and besides paying out 96-98% of melt value, they will also make you an offer for the stones left over in the jewelry. or they will send them back to you.
Here's a good link to the forum that has quite a bit of info and responses about How ARA works:
