A Guide to Selling Unused Gold Jewelry

 

We all have some broken jewelry lying around the house. Maybe a stone has fallen out of its setting or the clasp of an old necklace has given way to the ravages of time. Maybe it’s something sitting in your jewelry box that you haven’t worn in years. That unwanted or broken gold jewelry is valuable. At West Seattle Coins and Bellevue Rare Coins, we talk to people interested in selling gold and gold jewelry every day. Our experts have been evaluating gold since 1979. The question is: How much is your gold jewelry really worth?

The answer may surprise you.

The price of gold (around $1,700 an ounce) is near the highest it’s been in years. That makes it a great time to turn your broken or unused gold jewelry into cash.

So what is my gold jewelry worth?

The short answer is that it depends on how much gold is in that necklace, ring, brooch or locket. Gold buyers will appraise your jewelry and then offer you a price based on the quality and quantity of gold it contains. The more legitimate the buyer, the more certain you’ll be of getting the best price for your unwanted gold jewelry.

How do I decide if my gold buyer is legitimate?

The first and most important point is to make sure you do your research before selling your unwanted gold and broken gold jewelry. There are some disreputable gold buyers out there, but you can do your best to avoid them by reading reviews online and going to the Better Business Bureau website to check on the buyer’s reputation. It’s safer to sell your gold to a business that’s been in business for a while. And remember that it’s always better to sell your gold in person rather than through the mail or online. It’s safer.  And it’s the best way to get an accurate and honest appraisal.

The bottom line is that there’s rarely been a better time to sell your unwanted or broken gold jewelry, but it’s important to get some trusted, expert advice before you sell.

So come see the experts at West Seattle Coins and Bellevue Rare Coins in West Seattle, Bellevue and Lynnwood. We’ll give you a free appraisal with no pressure to sell. Read more about how the appraisal process works at West Seattle Coins and Bellevue Rare Coins website.
