PRECIOUS METALS
As economy issues rise to the forefront of our lives, there is an upside opportunity. The precious metals
market is becoming hot. This is a rare opportunity to actually profit from your past purchases. At current market values, those
old gold chains, rings and other gold pieces you don't wear have actually appreciated.
If you purchased gold in the 1970’s for instance, you can profit up to 800% as you can see below.
Because of the global economy, many buyers now prefer to have physical gold rather than certificates.
This and several other factors make now a good time to cash in on your gold.
We can generally put more in your pocket than typical buyers. This is because they have refinement expenses,
material loss during refinement, manufacturing costs and retail mark-up. We do not buy gold from you - we sell
it for you.
Gold trading can appear confusing at first. This is how many people are misled into selling their precious
metals for less. When we do your free, no obligation evaluation, you sit right next to us and see everything for yourself.
We will completely explain the process and answer any questions you have. We sort, test and weigh your precious metals,
telling you prior to any sales action exactly what you will end up with in your pocket after the sale is complete.
How is the price of gold calculated? It is based on one troy ounce of 24K, or pure gold. A regular ounce
is 28.5 grams - the troy ounce is 31.1 grams. If you see gold at $900, this means that 31.1 grams of pure 24K gold trades
in the market for $900 on paper. So, 31.1 grams of 12K gold (50% purity) would trade at $450. The example below illustrates how
this works.
To give you some perspective on what you may have, the following illustration shows a typical necklace.
Is now the right time to sell your gold? This is strictly your decision. We do not advise you regarding
the market (I bought $10,000 in stock the day before the “Internet Bubble” burst). We always recommend professional advice
for your personal financial decisions.
What if your gold jewelry has precious stones? We will be able to safely remove most stones and give
them to you. We cannot offer you as high of a price for stones as reputable gem buyers will. Keeping the
stones gives you the option of incorporating
them into future jewelry or getting more value from the gem market.
How do you get paid? After sorting your gold and advising you of the value, we pay you right then if you decide to sell.
If you do not want to sell, we give you a free written estimate and you can shop around.
Since we are working on a commission from your sale, we can put up to 90% of the market price
in your pocket depending on several variables. We pay the refinery premium and insured shipping out of our commission.
