Looking for a Gold Buyer?

Do you have some old jewelry that you don't wear anymore and want to make some extra cash? There are many gold buyers in Arizona to select from but you want to make sure that you choose the right one.

Karats

First, you will need to know the value of the gold by understanding how many karats your jewelry is and how each buyer measures the worth of the gold. The amount of karats determines the purity of your gold. For example, if you have a piece of 10k gold then it's less than 42% pure while a 14k piece is about 58% pure.

Whether your jewelry is in good condition or in bad condition, it is still worth money. The value of your pieces will mostly depend on their weight and purity.

Appraisal

Since 2011 gold has risen more than 20 percent in value. As gold prices continue to rise, be aware of who you choose to sell your gold to in order to make sure you receive the amount you deserve.

Most people have their gold appraised and then get paid by the jeweler. Be sure to ask the jeweler how they measure the value of gold as each jeweler is different. Many will calculate by troy ounce, but some jewelers pay by the gram rather than by the weight. Because of this, it's important to be aware of the weight and how many karats your jewelry is to ensure you get a fair price for your gold.

Understanding the value of the item you are selling is always helpful in getting the best price. Don't be afraid to shop around to determine which jeweler will give you the most money for your pieces.
