A: “Because I don’t buy anything I don’t see melted down.
One can so easily dilute it.”
B: “You don’t trust me?”
A: “I sell to the richest men and women on Earth. So,
forgive me if my reputation for dealing in only the finest
materials is too valuable to risk on the word of a thief. So,
do I get to see the statue, or not?”
Mi intento: ...disculpa si mi fama de negociar sólo con los materiales más puros es demasiado valiosa para arriesgarse en la palabra de un ladrón. |

11 mins confidence:   mi reputación es demasiado valiosa... (ver a continuación)
Explanation:
Por lo tanto, discúlpame pero creo que mi reputación como una persona que sólo negocia con los materiales más finos es demasiado valiosa como para ponerla en riesgo/arriesgarla basándome solamente en la palabra de un ladrón/ratero.
Esta sería mi sugerencia.
