Anyone selling their gold jewelry for cash?

[billig]

I was thinking of getting rid of some gold jewelry from when I was married.

I saw on the news a while back that when they compared prices, those online or in the mail cash-for-gold places were a rip-off, but that local jewelers are more likely to give you a fair price.
Here in Mpls we do have a jeweler that advertises that they pay the highest price for gold.

Has anybody done it? What did you get for it?

Dont do it through the mail. I sold mine last year @ a local high end jewelry store. They will give you the best price. They are regulated by the gov. I got over $2000 last winter for mine! I was shocked.

WOW! How much jewelry was that to get you $2K?

Thanks

don't know about this but does anyone else get bombarded w/ the GOLD RUSH ad on tv that swears they pay the highest amounts for gold?

I had a large ziploc back filled 1/4 of the way. Dont remember how many grams total. I was expecting $300. I told my friend & she said she didnt have that much. She took a handful and got $1800. So stick w/ high end jewelry stores and the price changes every hr or so. So you can call the jewelry store and see how much it is a gram or watch the price of gold online.

OK, would you believe my wedding band was stolen off my desk???

My soon-to-be-ex-husband and I have filed for divorce in the last month. The other day at work, I realized I was still wearing my wedding band. I took it off and set it in a tray on top of my desk.

I just saw this post and looked over at where the ring was supposed to be (just saw it there a day ago) and it is GONE!

I have a private office and nobody has ever bothered anything of mine in the past, but it appears that someone stole it. Just to be on the safe side, I checked all over my entire desk, inside, outside, underneath and all around. It's gone. The only real explanation for that is that someone took it.

Well, that sucks. I can't say I was really attached to it since I am getting a divorce and I obviously was careless enough to leave it on my desktop. But still! It's a gold ring and it's worth something. Not $2K by any stretch of the imagination. But something.

I'm disturbed by this, to say the least...
