I see a lot of tv ads about sending in your old jewelery. are they for real? -

I am just interested to know. thanks

they just had a thing on the news about this bad news - scamyou get ripped offthey suggested you take your scrap to a reputable dealer like a coin shop, jewelry shop, diamond shop that has been in business for a long time around you so you know their reputation, pawn broker also, but make sure you are in a safe place in towngold is over a $1100 an ounce right nowso if you have a big heavy old ring at 14K and a couple of heavy chains in 12K and maybe a watch in 20K you could get about $500 if the weights are good

Some of them are legitimate - the catch is that they pay per the weight of the gold, and the type (10, 12 14, 18 karat)....so sending a few necklaces, for example - they will pay for the weight of the 10K gold and NOT the prices that gold is selling for on the stock market. Also, if there are any stones, they should be removed before sending, as there will be no $$ for the stones. Look at www.ripoffreport.com for the companies they recommend

Don t believe everything what Tv ads telling you. Also it was on the news that they lied to many people about that they will earn more money on Gold but they lie to them.Don t listen to them and don t believe everything you hear from your TV because you need to get the prove first then believe it.

It s probably true to a certain extent. See first if there is a disclaimer. You may also be at risk with them paying you a tad to a half less than it s actually worth.It s much easier going face to face with a pawn shop owner.

Do not send them anything. A friend of mine sent something in and they sent her a letter telling her it was worthless. They didn t even bother to send the item back to her. You are better off going to a local place.J

Yes, there are some businesses that will pay you cash for sending in gold jewelery. However, they pay based on the weight of the gold and they do not pay well.

well they are not allowed to lie

i seen em too. cash for gold seems like some kinda scam to me

you ll get 20% of the real value...dont do it
