Just be careful who you sell it to BBC News - Gold-buying firms told to improve by OFT

take it to a proper jewellers shop, as they'll give you thee right prices for the different carats. it can be a big difference in price between 18 and 22 carat. lot of dodgy people about buying gold atm, so be careful.

yes i am aware , thanks though guys,

 

[johnryan]

you should be able to find a gold price calculator online. like this;

Gold Price UK

may give you an idea how much you should be getting, though they are dealers prices, so you might not get so much.

Apparently Tescos are buying gold now.. i have just done a job for a jeweller and he said they are giving great prices..

 

[johnryan]

here's a better one for getting an idea what it's worth;

SELLING SCRAP GOLD | Scrap Jewellery - Trade in your Scrap Gold and Platinum Jewellery for Cash, we offer the Best Deals and Best Prices

as a guide, that is. not to sell too.

has anyone sold !! with experiance then ? i worked out we have just under £2000 worth

 

[johnryan]

i sold to a jewellers before, but nowhere near that much. i got just under 300 for mine for several chains, and some rings.
wouldn't go near the online buyers though, just check around to see what sort of money you should be getting. there's a website called money saving expert that should have several threads on it.

here's a link;

that is allowing the buyer 10% wich should mean we all win

just looked at tesco price £7.81 per gr for 9cr it should be £9.91 so this is not very good thanks anyway!!

just google or ring a few places and get the going rate in grams, that way, you can decide who you want to sell to at the given time

dont bother with all these companies on the tv who say, 'send your gold to us bla bla bal, they just try it on and under value your gold hoping you dont know the rates.

a jeweller is a good place to sell but the more middle men you cut out the better!! ;0)
again, try a few and see who offer the best rate..thats all you can do really gooner.

ps, dont forget the rates fluctuate, so you need to decide whens the best time to sell!!

I've spent the last 12 years replacing Lou's after some scumbag nicked it, hope he got a poor price as it was uninsured.
