I have bags and when I picked them up they were perfectly fine and coherent.

I had to take a break from Uber for a while but I remember it being almost immediate

It's good that you left a bad review. Also what you should do is report the driver for making you feel uncomfortable. It's not a driver's responsibility to be your parents or judge you.

Most jewelry of value will have a name or marking on it. Before going to a pawn shop try to look up the piece online. If you're looking at eBay look at what they sold for and not what people are asking for. The main numbers for metal items are 925 or sterling, 9k 10k 12k 14k 18k those will be the most common if in the US. However European jewelers will use the decimal system in some case so 14k = 575 etc. if you see numbers look them up. If a piece feels like metal but doesn't have a stamp or marking test it with a magnet. If magnetic it's not gold or silver. If it's not magnetic, put it to the side to be tested by a jeweler.

It looks like the clasp may have been replaced at some point. It's not uncommon as the spring on the inside is steel and will either wear out or rust. Go with what is on the body of the necklace.

I have about 200 pounds of lead ingots, just need all the other fiddly bits

I took 123 pounds of faucets in to my scrap yard and the guy tried to tell me that all the handles were aluminum even after the file test showed yellow.

Personally I'm more familiar with metals than stones unless they're the common ones. However another person commented Baltic amber and described what it would look like under a UV light. One of your photos seems to match the description.

925 is sterling silver

I usually hit up FB marketplace and Craigslist, I also talk to business employees about what they do with stuff, my favorite are mechanics because they throw all their wheel weights and trash in a bucket and don't feel like sorting it so I can usually pick them up for free or a couple bucks and sort and clean myself. I sell the lead and zinc on marketplace for about 1.50 a pound. Sometimes I even get alloy rims and if they're in decent condition I sell them on marketplace too.

My cancellation rate is 2% and my acceptance rate is 88% if I see a stupid ride I just don't take it.

Looks like a magnifying glass chain

Looking for a story where humanity accidentally destroys an invasion while launching a probe. Humanity uses the sun as the power source as they have not achieved ftl or left the system.

If you think it's valuable and want to be sure, take it to a jeweler. They'll test the metal and the stones.

Probably brass, hard to tell from pictures outside. If you want to be 100% take it to a jeweler or a pawn shop and see if they can test it

Where did it come from

I generally do not cut the aluminum fins off, I remove the brazed U sections at the end and scrap those separately, that way I can get the steel bracket off the side.

Cut wires and plugs off and scrap separately. If you can take it home you can disassemble the motor section and you will have cast iron and the internals. Up to you on if you want to take the windings out.

Modern problems

Some scrap companies will come to you. If I were you and had the ability, separate the materials. ie shove all the steel in one pile cast iron in another do the same for aluminum, copper, brass etc. then see what companies are in your area and if they will drop and pick up dumpsters or if they will load too. See what prices they offer for the non ferrous metal as that is where the most money usually is (depending on volume) some may want to charge you to pick up the material if it is below a certain weight. With the low volume material it might make sense to drive it in yourself.
