Your local cash for gold store is probably the best place to get top dollar for your scrap or unwanted jewelry. Not only are they a local business who wants to make a good name for themselves, they also tend to offer you the most bang for your buck when compared to other methods to sell jewelry for cash.
Mailing in your gold jewelry is convenient. There is no doubt about that. However, you are paying for that convenience which means you will get less of a percentage of your jewelry’s true value. You will not have to leave your home, but you will also not get as much money as you had hoped for.
Hotels who hold gold buying events tend to offer more of a percentage than mail in cash for gold stores, but they also travel a lot. This means if you have any qualms after the purchase, you will probably be out of luck. These events are also high energy and fast paced. If you are not used to such an environment, you could feel pressured into accepting a price you would otherwise not be comfortable accepting.
The bottom line is to do your research before you try to get cash for gold no matter where you take your jewelry.
