Scrap jewelry is starting to get hot around here. We're seeing more people selling, but more that are buying it because it has the best premiums. Last week a friend of mine got wise to this and bought a nice used 14k box chain that she plans on wearing. For her it's not only fashion but a store of value.

Good choice, IMO. Paying for goods with a link or two from a gold chain could be very handy during hard times. Just be sure not to remove the tiny tag that says 14k or 18k on it because if that is missing, the buyer will naturally see it as 14k, if not 10k, which would not be good for the seller.

@@bochase6239 Modern bullion refers to recently minted sovereign bullion coins, like ASEs, Maples, Kangaroos, Britannias, Philharmonics, etc. Such coins are very common and unlikely to ever have any collector value unless they have some specific flaw that makes them rare. Slabs are plastic holders in which collectible coins come and typically they will be rated for their quality by NGC or PCGS. Ratings tend to me some sort of mint state (MS) designation followed by a number. 70 is the highest MS rating with lesser attractive coins being given lower numbers. Sometimes coins are rated as G for good, F for fine, VF for very fine, AU for almost uncirculated, and BU for brilliant uncirculated. These ratings tend to be a less rigorous rating system than that used by NGC or PCGS.

If you have jewelry to sell, see if you can find a private person to buy it at spot. Because a dealer will only pay below spot. I buy jewelry from friends at spot when they say they are going to scrap it. Then I hang onto it or wear it or flip it on eBay.

One of the reasons why I never buy any Scottsdale stacker products is because you cannot encapsulate them, leaving them exposed which is good for nothing then.

Could just be nervous, from selling her treasures and/or being filmed. Learned stuff from this regardless.

A fact many 'stackers' should note is...Gold has Never been Less than 59x more expensive than Silver...currently that ratio is around 83x more expensive than Silver. Those alive today will be very unlikely to Ever see Silver match Gold in value, and or, desirability.

That lady seems pretty sharp. I like her idea of getting rid of jewelry from the past, and moving to today. My spouse passed in 2016 after 35 years together. I have my wedding rings, as well as several other rings, bracelets, and necklaces I don't wear at all, just sitting in a box. I think it's time to let go, and trade it for some silver to add to my stack. Maybe have a couple rings melted down and have a new ring made using the diamonds. Something new I will wear. I know a jeweler I went to school with and graduated high school with her. She made a ring for my 30th anniversary from a drawing. The lady in the store is absolutely right about buying slabbed bullion coins. Just a waste of money. I have bought a few slabbed silver eagles, but they were gifts for other people to commemorate a particular year in their lives. I also bought one of the Una and the Lion bars, I got the silver 10 ozt bar. Today I ordered a tube of 125th anniversary of the Perth Mint silver dollars, nice looking coins with a koala, kangaroo, and kookaburra on one side, and Charles on the other side. Myself, I would have preferred the queen, but I didn't get a vote on that. Oh yeah, I was looking for that Yankee magnet too.😊

Off the path question. I think the Race track in Austin for a particular race only admits package deal tickets. The restaurants and hotels basically are selling these expensive packages. So, if You went to the Grand Prix instead with the strategy to stay in a friend’s house or rented a house for a weekend, can You even get into the gate?

I would like it checked for authenticity but jewelry is the last that would part with. Least likely to be confiscated

He just made a short drive. I'd have to fly down. 4000 miles. Wish I could handle it. Too old now.😂

Anyone know where the shop is? Would love to make a trip from nyc there!

her eyes are up there.

Any good jewelry company will mark the karat of the gold, unless its a custom piece.

Hard to buy small amount of shopping with small $400 dollar gold coin but $30 dollar silver bullion coin will work nicely.

Looking at the box, and the price sticker on the Herringbone bracelet, I would bet it's not real, at the best, it's plated.

You're gonna be paying real high premiums with 1/10 and smaller coins, as in ridiculous premiums. You're better off saving for 1/4 oz where the premiums aren't much more than a 1oz, and they're probably the most popular size for the average Joe. The difference is the number of years you're gonna need to hold onto it before you can sell without making a loss. It doesn't hurt to get a few smaller fractionals to get you going but don't stack smaller than 1/4oz. Fiat wise when it comes to selling, your silver will cover amounts smaller in value than a 1/4oz anyway and you're not at that level where weights an issue for you yet anyways.
