TomV Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 I've got a few old unwanted items of gold jewellery, where is the best place to cash them in? i.e. the place that pays the most? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starman Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Well the places that advertise on the telly typically give you about 20% of what things are worth according to Radio one news a few weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaniel Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Dont think i would chance posting my stuff off, got to be better to go to a pawn shop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CZ550Kevlar Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Jewellers or Pawn shops are your best bet, even though some of the highstreet jewellers own these postal gold companies they will give you more on a face to face through their highstreet name branches.

I thought that might be the case, just need to find a local jewellers who would be willing to buy some items, some might not be interested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 You would probably get more via the bay, or privately than these companies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibby Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 As said these TV companies are being investigated by the OFT for their stupid offers. An auction would be the most likely place for you to realise the scrap value minimum. Gibby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPT1 Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Look in the paper for the gold prices, take it to a a bloke with three balls hanging up. Then go to another to check if the first was lying, then send it to me and i will send you a post card from somewhere exotic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
