Selling Gold: How We Figure Out What It’s Worth

Karat, weight and today’s gold price. Here is exactly how we test and price your gold, so you know what to expect before you walk in.

Selling Gold: How We Figure Out What It’s Worth

Old chains, a single earring, a ring that no longer fits: gold you don’t wear still has value. Here is how we work out a fair offer.

What sets the price

  • Karat. 10K, 14K and 18K gold hold different amounts of pure gold, so they are priced differently.
  • Weight. We weigh your piece on a certified scale, in front of you.
  • Today’s gold price. Offers follow the market price of gold on the day you come in.

What to bring

Bring the pieces and a valid photo ID. Broken or tangled jewelry is fine. Diamonds and gemstones are looked at separately.

You are never under pressure to sell. If you want to think it over, take your piece home and come back any time.

Questions first? Call or message the store nearest you.
