Will I be paid for diamonds and other stones on the product? The settlement is calculated solely based on weight and metal content.

-
Does the design of what I'm selling matter? No. We only evaluate items based on weight and metal content, i.e. how much gold or silver they contain – not by appearance or design.

Can I sell broken jewelry? Yes, you are welcome to sell broken, tarnished or unusable jewelry. We buy all gold and silver – even jewelry that is broken, dented or can no longer be used as is. It is the metal value that counts, not the condition.
