Best Answer

I took a few gold chains to a local store and they said they were real but they don't buy gold, I took it to another local jewerly store who does buy it and they said it was fake. I took it to a third store to settle the dispute and she looked it over and offered me money. I wanted to talk it over with my husband. I brought the jewerly back about a week later and she looked at it two more times and paid me for it. Now they're calling wanting their money back and telling me that it's illegal and I could get in a lot of trouble? I didn't know I was selling something fake....all I had were the 3 different jewerlers opinions..isn't the person buying the gold supposed to be the gold expert.

Where would one find a gold buyer if one has gold for sale?

It depends on how much gold or gold jewelry you have, I am telling you my experience on selling gold to the gold buyer is a good experience with 24karat, the price of gold you are getting depends on the purity of gold if the purity of gold is good you will take the better price from the gold buyers. If you want to sell gold silver or diamond I will recommend 24karat because they are giving great service to their customer and they have trained gold staff and they give good advice I get a good response from the gold expert and they provide the better value from the market.

How to Spot Fake Gold Jewelry?

When buying gold from a potentially unreliable source, it is important to check that the gold you are buying is real. It is always best to buy from a trusted jeweler or a retailer of gold and to have a certificate of authenticity. If you ever buy a piece of jewelry that appears to be gold but you are not sure, there are a variety of ways you can check. First, if you have a magnet, see if the piece of jewellery is attracted to the magnet. This is a sure fire way of telling if the gold is fake or not as gold is not a magnetic metal. Second, use a cleaning cloth and rub the gold. If the surface comes off to reveal another metal underneath then the gold is defiantly fake. Third, try wearing the gold for a day. If the gold rubs a green mark onto your skin then it is without doubt a fake. Next, check the jewelry for hallmarks. These should have the carat of the gold, though do be aware that they can be stamped in by people selling fake gold, so if it only contains a carat and nothing else, chances are the gold may be fake. A further test you can do is to feel the weight of the gold. There are heavier metals, such as platinum, but the jewellery should be fairly weighty when held. Next, look at the appearance of the gold. Is it slightly more orange in color? Is it particularly shiny in appearance? These are also tell-tale signs that the gold is a fake. In summary, there are many ways to tell if gold is fake or not, but the best thing that you can do is have the gold verified by a jeweler who will be able to give you a definitive answer as to the authenticity of the gold you have.
