I sold 54g of old and scrap gold bits and pieces (odd earrings, broken bits of chains that I had accumulated over the years, etc) and got £250!

I put it on auction at a start price of £10. Lots of jewellers want it to melt down and use.

The gold website I used would have paid me 340.00 if I'd had 54g. Maybe its just finding the right site

That sounds great!

I should have mentioned that I sold mine nearly three years ago when gold value was considerably less than today.

I just sold 11 grams of gold for 70.00 - I thought that wasn't bad as they were broken chains and single earrings just sitting there doing nothing. I don't feel I was conned at all

You could get it melted down and fashioned into an artistic rendering of a piece of poo to remind you of him

Not quite sure that gold won't lose it's value, but certainly it's not a good time to sell silver. I saw a recent programme saying it was a bad time for silver antiques as the value of silver is low.

Interestingly one of the adverts for these types of business who buy your jewelry said that it's never been a better time to sell your silver - Not for them it ain't !!!
