subject: 3 Places Where You Can Sell Gold Jewellery [print this page] The reasons why people would want to be selling their gold jewellery are varied. The common ones are to basically meet and attend to some emergency needs, to have extra spending money, to add to an already existing fund, using the money to buy something, and to sell off old but still relevant jewellery that is not being used.
Either way, anyone who wants to sell gold jewellery has to know how to sell it and where they can sell it. Seasoned sellers often know where to go and who to meet, while newcomers don't even know where to begin. If you belong to the latter group, then here are some places where you can sell that gold jewellery and have the money you need in a short time.
1. Online Auctions
While you could stage an auction offline for your jewellery, it won't attract too many buyers unless you are a rich lady who is well known in the society. However, what you cannot do offline these days, the online availability of the Internet, has made it really easy. Each and every individual has the ability to go online and sell anything they want to.
So, in order to sell your gold jewellery, your first port of call would be an auction site like eBay.com. It would be wise to go there and list your gold for sale. If your ad is well crafted, you should not have any problems finding buyers. A tip for successful selling: take a picture of your gold in bright light and make it appealing, then list it in the right section. If you are in doubt as to what to do, look at the ads relating to gold and copy the concept that really appeals to you.
2. Ask Your Friends
If you have friends who love jewellery as much as you do, this should not be such a hard thing to do. Ask your friends if they would like the gold. This is often much easier to do, as all it would take is a simple phone call. Also, if your friends do not want to buy the beautiful pieces, ask them if they know anyone else who may like to buy them. This way, you get to meet people you could sell your gold jewellery to.
3. Gold Buying Parties
These are held in certain places, and individuals can host one of their own as well. What this involves is going there with your gold or money, to either sell or buy. This is such a cosy and informal selling setting. You can leave your gold and have them weighted, and pick up your money when people buy. Initially, these parties were meant for those who just wanted to buy gold.
But with time, it became more of an exchange thing. So, ask around for gold buying parties or even host one with your friends asking them to bring along their friends who may also bring in their own friends. This way, you will have quite a handful of people who are interested in just two important things: Buying and selling gold jewellery.
