Reddit reviews Gold Leaf Sheets 999/1000 Real Gold : 100 Gold Leaf Sheets

100 sheets of gold leaf measuring 1.7" by 1.7", totalling 289 square inches, cost $12.55, with free two-day shipping. I'm sure actual artists can get better deals on bulk quantities. Gold leaf isn't actually all that expensive since it's only like an atom thick.

No way in hell. There's bamboozling there. real gold leaf sheets that size cost WAY less than 5k... you can't tell me the paint and labor is "THAT" special. https://www.amazon.com/Gold-Leaf-Sheets-1000-Real/dp/B00VALQQ60

Gold foil isn’t really that expensive, it’s so thin there’s really not that much gold weight wise

Not much. There's barely any gold there. Small sheets like that are about $12 for 100

As with many such luxury items, it's all for show, and there's no real value in there.

Anything with gold leaf on it is just capitalizing on the perceived worth of gold to massively inflate the price they charge. And yes, gold is very expensive, but gold leaf isn't. Gold leaf is so incredibly thin that you could coat a whole burger with it for less than $5.

Saffron is expensive but the amount you'd actually use is a few bucks at most.

Same with the rest of the ingredients. The Kobe beef (why would you even use Kobe just to grind it up when you can use regular beef and throw in some extra fat, but whatever).

That burger costs maybe $200 to make at most, most of which is just the wasteful use of Kobe beef. That burger could probably be replicated for under $100 with Wagyu subbed for the Kobe.

Gold leaf is pretty cheap stuff. A nice sentimental gift, but no notable monetary value.

This is excessive and wasteful, but putting it on a burger and selling it for $100 or whatever is just duping gullible rich people. It's like (at most) $5 worth of gold on a $12 burger.

Gold foil sheets are actually not outrageously priced. Here's an example from Amazon 25 sheets for $43 bucks.

Gold gilded sheets are even less expensive, 100 for $13, not much more expensive than any other kind of fancy decorative supply.

Surprisingly not as expensive as you would think.

$.12 a sheet.

Doesn't look too expensive honestly. $15 for 100 2" square sheets doesn't sound that bad.

It's possible that it's real, gold leaf is extremely inexpensive.

Here's enough for around 200 TO-220 transistors

This is gold leaf. It's insanely thin, about 4-5 millionths of an inch according to Google. You can get 100 sheets of it for $12. I don't think it's quite as much of a splurge as you believe. It's pointless, but it's not something only the richest of the rich can do.

Not enough gold in that room to be worth your time, it's all gold leaf This is actually very common in Japanese temples.

Another quick question and I'm done for now: is it okay if I get gold leaf that isn't entirely real gold but a blend will it work? (I might be wrong but I've found some listing that says it is like 999/1000 real gold which I read as meaning 99% real gold, so I might be wrong).

Better way of putting it: will these be alright?
