Where do you sell your gold?

[bubba4289]

I've gotten a ton of gold recently and am looking for the place that pays the most for scrap gold. Any ideas on who/where I should contact?

in my experience expect to get between 40-60 percent of the value if it's scrap that's if you sell to a jewelry store or pawn shop even a refinery, I would try to break it up into two gram lots and try to find people that collect it and ask for 90 percent

ARA Gold Pays 98% I have used them and had good results. They do however want a business name on the form.

You could also try Midwest Refineries they pay 95%

In Sacramento California www.goldbuyerssacramento.com paid me 85% of melt on necklace I bought at gs. Very nice another jeweler offered 200 I got 400 form these people.

In S. Fl one of the club members has a coin shop. He will give either 95% or 98% to us club members.
He knows we can go through ARA or Midwest. I don't know where I put his business card.
I know where the store is....... pm me if your close and I'll hunt for the card.

It would have been an easy answer a couple of years ago. ARA, but they don't deal with the general public anymore. You need a tax ID number now.

Midwest Refineries get mixed reviews. While most seem happy, it seems they have some shady practices at times. If you send them under 3 ozt. and expect 95% payout it will probably be closer to 85% (from what I've read). They don't assay under 3 ozt. and they don't consider anything plumb gold if it isn't assayed. Example: 14k = 12.5k, 10K = 9k ect. Expect 80-85%. Still better than the cash for gold places.

The man I just spoke with tells me, he'll pay spot! Cash in hand.
Can't beat that unless ya got a ......., huh?

He wasn't the owner either, they outta town a few days. They have always pd either 95 or 98%,
can't remember which.

Yeah BABY! LOL! SEND ME ALL YA'LL'S GOLD! LOL!

A lot of the Asian jewelers will buy your gold. I got 95% gold value on a gold ring I traded in to buy a skull ring for myself, I lost my old one...

selling gold

Just got a check back from NTR in Phoenix. Their weight was exactly what mine was. I have sold many thousands in scrap gold over the years and never had a problem. They pay 98% for gold and 90% on silver. You can contact John Glaudel @603-787-4653, tell him Loyd from Seek and Find Detecting recommended them. They have offices in several other cities also. I have had bad experiences with Midwest. Nuff said.

95% is an amazingly good percentage. Take it and run!

I have been getting between 90-93% for the past 3+ years and have been happy with the results. If you are getting less than 90% you need to re-evaluate your selling options.

Please sell me any and all of your gold, I will gladly pay you 70%. lol

Went to a jewlery store hoping to sell there because i was buying a 10 silver bar. But they only offered me $170

WOW you sold $7924.28 worth of gold for $229! any more you want to sell at that rate?

(sure it wasn't 10.4 gr? )

 

[cyberdan]

ARA & NTR have been good to me. always 98% payout on AU.

I drive to NTR on my lunch, drop off my stash, go back to my car and eat lunch, go back in and pick up check.

I like ARA better but I have to pay priority mail shipping and then worry till I know it gets there. The post office will not insure precious metals.

Thanks for your input everyone. I've decided to just throw it in the safe for now.

Does NTR ask for a business number like ARA does now?
