i have a friend who would like to sell off some old pcs of jewelry. some are gold only, others with diamonds. anyone know a trustwrothy place to go to sell them? thanks
Take them to a reputable jeweller and have them sell them on consignment in their “estate” jewellery department.
Can I hijac this thread?
What Can I do with a very nice used watch? besides sell on ebay cuz I dunno how 2 do that… 🙂
They will only get the meltdown value of the weight of the gold or silver. No one seems to care about the stones in the jewelry, or quality of workmanship. I have two gold rings and a gorgeous cameo, both belonged to my mother O”H. 30 – 40 years ago, they cost a nice amount, but today, I am told no one cares about the large smoky topaz, or the black onyx with a centered opal. Only the gold part is of value, the rest would be tossed. Those rigns and cameo were appraised by a reputable jeweler for a nice sum, but even he said he could only offer it on consignment for a week. The gold store to whom I showed the pieces, offered me a FRACTION of their original worth, and that was just for the gold part.
where are you located?
Peopple need to relize that the price of gold is for 100% pure gold (24k) but the averege piece of jewlery is only 585/1000 gold (14k) and then they only pay for the velue of raw gold.
If you want, Im in the business and I can maybe help you out.
