This San Francisco news segment is the one we point customers to before they sell anything. Its lesson is simple, and we agree with it: know what you have, and get more than one offer.
Look for the stamp: 10K or 417, 14K or 585, 18K or 750. It tells you how much of the piece is gold.
A kitchen scale that reads grams gives you a ballpark before anyone else weighs it.
A buyer should weigh your items in front of you, with the reading where you can see it.
Weight, karat, spot price and the share of melt value being paid. A fair buyer tells you all four.
Grams and pennyweights are different. One pennyweight is 1.555 grams, so check which one a quote uses.
Take the same items to another buyer. A fair offer holds up to comparison.
We test and weigh every piece in front of you, show you the numbers behind the offer, and there's never an obligation to sell. If you want a second opinion after visiting us, go and get one. We'd rather earn your business than rush it.
Check the market first on our gold price page, then visit us in San Francisco or Houston.
