Sell your gold chain for the best possible price to reDollar

Gold Chain 18k goldA gold chain consists of matching links made of a certain gold alloy. Typical gold alloys for chains in the US are 10K gold, 14K gold, or 18K gold. Arabic gold chains can be also made of 22K gold or even 24K gold. You have to consider a couple of things when you plan to sell a gold chain. First and very important is that you understand the value of your chain. A very thin gold chain, let’s say you bought it 5 years ago for $300, can’t be sold for $300 anymore. Chains like that sell for the current gold price. Most gold chains, if they aren’t made from very well-known designers or famous brands, just sell for the gold price. And please don’t think that you can sell it for more cash in an online auction. Maybe you get 10% more if you auction it but please don’t forget to consider deductions like selling commission (often minus 25% and higher), fees for marketing efforts and eventually additional fees for electronic payment systems like PayPal. At the end you could get out less cash than if you would have sold it for the gold price. Gold chains with diamonds, gemstone gold chains, designer gold chains, antique gold chains or very rare gold chains can be sold for much more than only the material value. But it needs a very experienced gold buyer who has the ability to evaluate very special gold chains. Our company is the right place for all types of gold chains.
