Does palladium yellow when heated?
When I asked at a (well known, national chain) jewelry store if they carried palladium rings, the salesperson told me that they didn't because palladium can yellow when heated (i.e. for re-sizing) I hadn't read this online anywhere before and looking afterward I still can't find anything about this.
The only thing I can think of is a white gold-palladium alloy, which could yellow as much as the standard nickel-gold alloy (which is why they're rhodium plated, anyway!)
So has anyone else heard this before? Any truth behind it?

I found this article on the internet which covers the fabrication of a palladium ring. All they talk about is a 'mild discoloration' when heated which was easy to remove.
