Get at least three estimates before you sell gold. I recently sold several thousand dollars of gold jewelry that we have had for years, but never use anymore. For some items, I got the best price at the jewelry store on 466, the rest I got the best price at the guy that comes to the Waterfront every couple of months. A third place on 441 by the card room was low by a couple hundred dollars.

You just have to take the time to find the best price on your particular items.
