Talk with our team about your gold

A broken chain, an unworn bracelet or a collection of inherited jewelry can be a starting point. Bring your gold to our showroom at 2801 N Federal Hwy, Boca Raton, FL 33431, along with any receipts or records you have.

We look at the individual pieces before discussing an offer. Tell us about any maker marks, repairs, gemstones or history that may help with the review. If you have coins or bullion, contact us before your visit to confirm what we can evaluate.

For diamond or designer pieces, explore our jewelry selling service. You can also contact our team with questions before booking.

What to discuss at your gold evaluation

01

The pieces you have

Bring individual items or a collection. Let us know if a piece is broken, altered, inherited or missing a mark.

02

Gold content and weight

Ask how the gold content and weight are checked. Stones, clasps and other materials may need to be considered separately.

03

The complete item

A finished piece may need review beyond its metal content. Share any information about the maker, design, gemstones and condition.

04

The sale details

Before accepting an offer, confirm the final amount, any charges, required documents, payment method and expected timing.

How selling your gold works

01

Arrange an evaluation

Book a visit and tell us what you would like to sell. Contact us first about large collections, coins, bullion or any questions about the appointment.

02

Bring in your pieces

Bring the gold and any supporting records. We will review the items and explain any further checks needed before making a purchase offer.

03

Review the offer

Ask how the amount was determined and what you would receive. If you choose to sell, confirm the paperwork, payment method and timing before completing the sale.

Getting ready for your visit

01

Keep the pieces together

Bring matching items, broken parts and any original packaging you still have. Explain which pieces you are considering selling and which you want to keep.

02

Bring the history you have

Receipts, appraisals and maker information can provide useful context. Missing paperwork does not identify the metal or establish a value; the piece still needs examination.

03

Plan your questions

Contact us to confirm identification and ownership information needed for your visit. Ask about the evaluation process, any charges and how long an offer remains available.

What affects a gold purchase offer

The gold content, weight and details of the item all matter.

01

Gold purity

Karat describes the proportion of gold in an alloy. For example, 18 karat gold contains 18 parts gold out of 24. A mark provides a clue, but the item still needs to be checked.

02

Weight and other materials

The weight of the entire piece is not always the weight of its gold. Ask how gemstones, other metals and nonmetal parts are handled in the evaluation.

03

Market conditions and the offer

Gold prices change. Ask which price reference and weight unit are being used, how the offer is calculated and whether any charges affect the amount you receive.

04

Design, maker and condition

Jewelry may also be assessed as a finished piece. A signature, unusual design or supporting records can be relevant, but age or original packaging does not guarantee a premium.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I bring broken or unwanted gold jewelry?

Yes. Bring the complete item and any broken parts you still have. Tell us about previous repairs or alterations. The metal and the individual piece need to be reviewed before an offer is made.

What if I do not know the karat or purity?

Bring the item as it is and share what you know. Karat marks describe gold content, but appearance or a stamp alone does not replace an examination. Ask our team how the piece will be checked.

Are gold plated and gold filled pieces the same as gold jewelry?

Gold plated and gold filled items have a gold layer over another material. Their gold content differs from an item made throughout from a gold alloy. Contact our team to ask whether we can evaluate your particular item.

Do I need receipts or an appraisal?

Bring any records you have, including receipts, maker details and previous appraisals. Contact us before visiting to confirm the identification and ownership information required. An insurance appraisal is not a purchase offer.

How long does an evaluation take, and when would I be paid?

Timing depends on the number of pieces and any checks needed. Ask how much time to allow when booking. Before accepting an offer, confirm the payment method, processing time and when funds are expected to be available.

Do I have to accept the offer?

You decide whether to sell. Ask how long the offer is available and whether there are any evaluation, handling or return charges before leaving an item with us.

Can I ask about a loan instead of selling?

Contact our team to discuss whether a collateral loan is available for your piece. Request the full terms, including interest, charges, repayment dates, storage and what happens if you do not repay. Availability requires a separate review.
