Selling Gold: What to Bring & Expect

What to bring

• Valid government-issued photo ID — a driver’s license, state ID, passport, or military ID. Georgia requires precious-metals dealers to record each seller’s identity (O.C.G.A. § 43-37-3). You must be 18 or older.
• Your items — jewelry, coins, bullion, flatware, scrap, or broken pieces. No need to clean or sort them.
• Paperwork, if you have it — for watches and designer pieces, original boxes, papers, receipts, and appraisals can raise the value.

Hours and locations

Walk-ins are welcome. Booking ahead is recommended so we can give you our full attention — call or use the free quote form.

What happens at your visit

1. We sort your items by metal and karat.
2. We test purity in front of you using an XRF analyzer and other methods — see how we test. Testing does not damage your items.
3. We weigh on a precision scale that reads to 0.01 gram.
4. We show you the math — weight, purity, and the current spot price — and make you an offer.
5. You decide. Accept and get paid on the spot, or take your items home. No fee, no pressure.

How you get paid

We pay at the time of sale, in cash, or by check for larger transactions. There is no minimum.

Good to know

• Online quotes are estimates; the final offer is made after in-person testing.
• Purchased items may be subject to a hold period required by local ordinances.
• Not sure an item is real gold? Bring it anyway — testing is free.
