Do you have old jewelry lying around you simply do not wear any more?

Does any of this old, unwanted jewelry contain gold? Things like broken necklaces, mismatched earrings, broches, even past engagement or promise rings?

You know, rings from high school sweet hearts, jewelry from the 60's, 70's, 80's... lol.

Then there are those broken gold chains and single earrings you haven't had the heart to part with single you misplaced or lost their mate.

Maybe you've got some old jewelry you inherited. Nothing of sentimental value, but perhaps worth something for the gold it contains. After all, you never wear it, but you know it’s worth something.

Have you ever been engaged only to cancel the wedding?

If so, you likely still have the engagement ring. But do you wear it? Of course not, so why not turn it into cash to pay bills or fill the gas tank.

The point is that all this old gold jewelry can easily be turned into cash. Cash you can use to pay the rent or mortgage with, pay bills, treat the family to a night out. That sort of thng. I mean lets face it. In these tough economic times a little extra cash can go a long way.

Best Ways to Sell Your Gold

Host a Gold Party and Sell Your Gold For Cash.

Came across an interesting gold party post on the Gold Parties Canada blog. It talks about the different options out there for easily turning your old, broken and unwanted gold into cash.

It also talks about how the times we live make it about the easiest time in history to find a buyer for your old gold... and its true!

Check it out, its called Sell My Gold - I Want To Sell My Old Gold For Cash!

Here is a short excerpt we've reprinted with permission.

"When you are in the business of buying old unwanted or damaged gold jewelry and other gold items from people, you here it often... I want to sell my gold for cash!"

"I even came across someone's personal blog yesterday and it read, I quote, "I am in the market to sell my gold and turn unwanted jewelry into cash. It has never been easier to sell my gold pieces than right now. There are several options for getting cash by selling my gold."

"Pawnshops, Gold Swap Parties, and Mailing Envelopes are the easiest
means for selling my gold for cash."

"Of the options for selling your gold that are listed above, your gold home party is by far the easiest, safest and most fun way to turn your old gold jewelry and other gold items into cash to buy gas, groceries or whatever."

The blog post I quoted above went on to say, "This is a lucrative time to sell my gold." Well, that is true, now is a very lucrative time to be selling gold. Gold is at an all time high right now and some experts say we can expect it to go even higher.

But, will a pawn shop, jewelry store or someone advertising on late night TV pay you a fair and equitable price for your gold? That is the question!

In the end, gold swap parties are a fast, private and convenient way to sell my gold and get money quickly. Go ahead and read their post and then come back here and let us know what You think... that is what we really care about.

Now, just like it says in the post, "I am going to sell my gold while the prices are high, and I'm selling my gold at a gold party near me!

And if there isn't one, I'll host a gold party of my own!

Cashing in on Old Gold at a Gold Home Party

Bring in Additional Income By Attending or Hosting a Gold Party!

This is actually an old gold parties press release first published back in October of 2008, right when our economy was going in the dumpster.

We have published it here for anyone interested in learning more about the phenomonon that is sweeping the nation... Gold Home Parties!

Gold Parties: Cashing in on Old Gold

Attendees sell unwanted gold jewelry and go home with money in their pockets.

These aren't your mother's Tupperware parties. With the economic crisis continuing to reach new heights—or drop ever closer to rock bottom, depending on how you want to look at it—more and more people are hurting for cash. People the nation over are looking to bring in additional income in a variety of creative ways.

One of the more unusual methods is throwing or attending gold parties.

"At a recent gold party in Montclair, N.J., gold party hostess Amy Barnett watched as friends and neighbors collected hundreds of dollars in cash for their old and unwanted gold jewelry. Buyer Katie Kuperschmid evaluated the pieces, made the calculation based on the current price of gold and paid the money out of a strong box. One woman walked out with more than $550," according to CBS News.

Job losses have been posted in every single month of 2008 so far; about 760,000 U.S. workers have lost their jobs this year. With job losses rising, the stock marketing diving and the prices of many basics increasing, many Americans are struggling to make ends meet. Thus, the opportunity to rake in the dough by spending an evening with friends or neighbors is appealing to many people.

Attendees at gold parties simply bring old or unwanted gold items with them—most commonly jewelry, although gold scraps and dental work is widely accepted, too—and receive cash for their gold items. The amount of money an attendee earns is determined by the weight and purity of the items they bring to sell. And with the price of gold hovering around $900 per ounce, attendees are often able to leave with plenty of money in their pockets.

Michigan Gold Recyclers—which is based in Michigan, but has offices all across the U.S.—is just one company of many employing gold buyers who handle the trade-ins and transactions at gold parties.

The buyers consider several things when determining how much money an item is worth. "The price of gold changes almost every day," according to the Michigan Gold Recyclers' website. "Purity is also important. For example, 24kt gold pieces will be of greater value than 14kt gold. Your necklace may be real gold, but the clasp may be stamped 14k and when tested shows 10k. Accurate weight and evaluation is key. Only when these factors are combined are our gold buying experts able to provide a accurate quote."

After the party, the buyer takes the gold and sells it to a gold refiner "who makes it into bullion or some other investment grade product. Wall Street precious metal distributor Raymond Nessim said he can't get bullion and gold coins fast enough to satisfy the demand from nervous investors looking to park their money in something solid," according to CBS News.

Demand for gold has increased 200 percent since the beginning of the economic crisis, according to CBS News; nervous investors often turn to gold as a financial security blanket.

Gold buyers typically give either a flat fee or a percentage of the event's total to the host. The gold buyer usually earns money by taking a cut of the event's total also; it is essentially a service charge for the attendees, in exchange for the convenience of leaving the party laden with cash rather than gold.

Michigan Gold Recyclers pays party hosts 12.5 to 15 percent of the evening's earnings. According to their website, the average fee for the host is $500 of the $4,000 brought in by the average gold party. They also provide $50 to help cover any food and beverages supplied by the host, and offer a $100 referral fee per party attendee who decides to throw their own gold party.

Intrepid hosts could throw a gold party and act as the gold buyer themselves. My Gold Party sells a book on hosting a gold party along with a gold party kit, which includes the book and equipment such as a scale, a gold tester and a magnification loupe.

For those who are—perhaps worn out because of the economic crisis—feeling anti-social and thus not up for a party, My Gold Party also offers a service where people can send them gold items and receive a check in exchange; should the gold seller decide not to sell the gold after all, their items will be returned to them. Those with gold they don't need could also look for a gold buyer in their area, if they preferred dealing with someone in person. A local jeweler is an easy place to start

How Do I Sell My Old Gold

Host a Gold Home Party, That's How!

So you have all this gold jewelry you would like to sell. It's all pretty old. You don't wear it any more, so why keep it right?

Well, if you have old gold you would like to sell, there is a short post on the Host a Gold Party blog called Have Old Gold Rings to Sell? Host a Gold Party, Sell Gold and Make Money.

We have reprinted an excerpt of it here, with permission of course. We recommend you check out Hosting a Gold Party. There are other great post and feature articles of interest to anyone wanting to know more about gold home parties, how to host gold parties and gold buying events, and how you can even make a career out of hosting gold parties for cash.

"A few years ago, it seemed like everywhere I went I would buy a ring. It must have been a phase I was going through. I remember it was common for me to wear multiple rings on each finger. "

"Well, that was then and this is now, and now I’m stuck with a bunch of rings I never wear, don't particularly want... and they all have gold and/or silver in them. "

What to do with those unwanted gold rings and jewelry, that is the question. Of course we all know the answer to the question... Host a Gold Party, Have Fun, Make Money!

The Safest Way To Sell Old Gold

Beware The Gold Party Scam, Know You're Gold Party Hosts.

"Currently there are many online and 'mail in' gold buying companies that will "buy your gold jewelry" and "turn your gold into cash." These gold buying companies are of interest to many, but be very careful. Do your research. Check into the company before you have dealings with them, as quite often they are nothing short of rackets and scams that give you pennies on the dollar for your old gold valuables."

That is a quote from a post at Canadian Gold Parties.

Read the full post at, Gold Parties Canada is a Safe and Trusted Way to Sell Old Gold.

Certainly not all gold buying companies are scams, but none the less, be sure to do your research first.

Remember, the safest way to sell your gold or host a gold home party of your own, is to book a gold party with a reputable gold buyer like Gold Parties Canada or Fast Cash Gold Parties.

Gold Home Parties Make Extra Cash During Recession

Host a New Kind of Party, a Gold Home Party, and Send Your Guests Home With Extra Cash!

With the economy in recession and so many people out of work its hard to find something to celebrate, but there is one exception... Gold Parties!

These economic times we live coupled with the rise in gold prices have helped fuel a new kind of party. Now here is a party that's definitely worth the time. It's a party where you leave with more money than when you showed up with... and its called a Home Gold Party!

It's true, with the economy the way it is and so many Canadians and Americans losing their jobs, there's not a lot of people in the mood for parties. But like so many have learned, its a perfect time to host a gold party and make some extra cash to pay bills, buy food, help with the rent or mortgage... or simply to treat yourself and your loved ones to something special.

Turn Old Gold Into Cash

Everyone has old gold rings, earrings, chains and scrap gold kicking around. Well it aint worth a dime stuffed away in a drawer or old shoe box... but it can be turned into cash!

There are options. We have all seen the late night commercials on TV, but if you don't like the idea of having to go into a pawn shop and you don't trust sending off your scrap jewelry and gold to some stranger through the mail, gold home parties offer a great alternative way to turn that old gold into cash... and you can have fun, even build a real gold party business in the process.

Gold Parties are a Quick Way to Make Money

Home gold parties are a great way to make quick money by turning old unwanted and broken gold jewelry and other gold items into cash. We're talking about items you no longer wear. Gold jewelry just sitting in your jewelry box or drawer. It's a genuine 'gold rush' for many women in both Canada and the United States... and its a chance to party with friends, neighbors, workmates, family and lots of gold!

"I was really excited because I thought, oh I've got all this stuff sitting around. Why not see what I can do with it,"says Bernadette Lokken of Columbia county. She attended a home gold party and brought along several pieces of gold to be examined. While some pieces were not as valuable as others, she still walked away with a good deal and a pocket full of extra cash.

"Coming to an in-home gold party is much more trustworthy, relaxing and fun than mailing in your gold and holding your breathe in the hopes you might get paid, its just a much better feeling,"adds a friend who also attended the party.

It was thinking about old pieces of gold just sitting in a jewelry box that prompted Mary Pat Seal to host a gold party of her own recently. Her hope was to turn some gold items she hasn't worn in years into spare cash. "These are things you're never going to use again. For example, I'm selling them my high school ring, something I haven't worn in 25 years."

There are women all across Canada and United States just like Seal who are hosting gold home parties and making extra cash for themselves and their families... some are making a business out of it!

Perfect Time to Host a Home Gold Party of Your Own

"This is the time when people need gas and grocery money. Times are hard so you do what you got to do to supply for your family," says Sara.

A stay at home mom, Sara has been working with gold party clients since March of this year. She has a license to buy gold and works with a refinery to melt it. Sellers have the option of turning down her offer, but for the most part she puts money back into your wallets.

"I paid out $1400 to one single lady,"says Sara. "I've even had ladies cry at my table for 60 dollars. Consider a gold party because you are in the comfort of someone's home and it's a fun environment so you feel more comfortable."

It is true, that although some individuals may discover their precious metals are not worth what they thought they were worth (once you measure the weight in gold), the idea of walking away with cash in hand and a future opportunity to host a home gold party of your own (and make money doing it) makes some customers think they've literally struck gold.

"This is the only kind of party where you will leave with more money than you came with," says Sara. "I guarantee that."

"It is an unusual event when you walk into someone's house with gold in your pocket and leave with money in your pocket," adds Mary Pat.

In Sara's case, she says she pays each gold party attendee about 80-85 percent of the gold's worth, then takes the jewelry to the refinery to be melted down and made into a gold bar.

Gold parties are huge and they truly are a great way to generate a little extra grocery and gas money for you and your family... and they are also a great business opportunity.

Don't miss out.

Sell My Gold For Charity

How Gold Parties Can Be Used to Help Those in Need.

The following press release is just one example of how women across America are taking the gold home party concept to the next level.

On the other hand, charity fund raisers are one of the fastest ways to build a gold party business. Due to the large numbers of attendees at your typical charity fund raiser, you can generate dozens, even scores of gold party leads, even book dozens of follow up gold parties for your group or organization.

If you belong to a charity or organization with a cause and would like to know more about how hosting a gold party could help you raise money to support that cause... contact gold swap parties in Canada or gold swap parties in the U.S. to learn more.

Gold Swap Parties in the News

ATLANTA, GA, August 13, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Goldiva's, a one of kind women's duo, is inspiring women from all over Georgia and the Country about how to survive on a dime in today's economy, have started a new trend in In-home neighborhood Tupperware style parties.

Both women were looking for a way to bring other women together without being pressured to buy something or feeling obligated to your friends whom were hosting the parties in purchasing something. Instead of buying something they came up with a way that you actually leave the party with money in hand or with merchandise that you did not pay for.

They wanted to change the look and feel of these parties and make them more friendly and fun. To get to this point they needed something that could give them the opportunity to make it happen. They both knew that gold buying was big but wanted to stay away from the negativity that the Gold buying Industry attracted. So they came up with a plan that was a win-win for everyone involved.

The two women decided to go an extra mile with adding a charity component, they came up with HELP THE FAMILY FOUNDATION, which allowed all at the party to pick a family in need that was located in their neighborhood and use some of the funds raised from the party to help that family with the payment of an electric bill or even a car payment or to buy prescription medicines.

"We wanted to help families that were in need now! And we are seeing this program actually work at the parties; this makes my heart feel really great," said Helene Kirkley, founder of Goldiva's.

"Women have really opened up to us at these parties (even though it is the first time they have met us), it is incredible how much pressure and stress they are under at the moment, when they sit opposite you, and are selling their unwanted gold with a lot of sentimentality sometimes," added Kirkley.

Why these Gold Parties have been such a huge successful:

• These special parties are made up of women whom are constantly talking about the economy, what they can and cannot afford, how they had to pull their child out of daycare, the concerns, and the worries and how it will it all end. Swapping tips on 'money saving' ideas.


• Hostesses Get Paid up to $500 per party.


• The number one way to our success is because of the Overhead costs, there is none, no store.


• The Parties are generating money and escape. Women are missing their girls night out -The parties generate enough income to pay the hostess.... big bucks!


• These parties get women together from all walks of life generating money for them to pay bills and to help their kids and husbands who are out of work or laid off.


• The parties help to generate a giving sense to women in their own communities that are in extreme financial situations, single moms, medical bills.


• The parties generate the hiring of many women all over the country to become gold buyers whom the company hires sometimes on the spot to help with the growing surge of parties....One women booked 42 parties in one week in Atlanta alone.

There you have it, how two women from Georgia have put there own twist on the gold home party concept and made it into a huge success... and at the same time created an opportunity to help those less fortunate than most.

It just doesn't get any better than that!

Sell Your Old Gold at Home

Got Old Gold To Sell?

If you've got old gold jewelry or other gold items that you would like to sell, then sell your old gold at home!

Sure there are pawn shops, but they won't give you nearly what your gold pieces are worth. You could try your local jewelry stores, but most make such a huge markup on their new stock they aren't even interested your stuff.

A better idea is to sell your old gold at home!

Sell Your Gold at Home!

It's simple. You invite gold buyers and guests to your home for a party. They are called gold-selling parties, and they are a great way to sell your old and unwanted gold jewelry and make a little extra cash on the side.

The gold home party concept works because the gold buyer is interested due to the large amount of gold jewelry being sold at one sitting. However, the seller should check out a few different gold buyers to determine which will offer the better price.

It's true, you need to do a little research before hosting a gold party in your home. Homework must be done in that the gold seller (you and your gold party guests) should know the price of gold (per ounce) ahead of time. That way you will better be able to see the spread between what the gold is actually worth and what you are being offered.

A little math is necessary to first figure out what percentage of the necklace is gold by its karat weight, and then the weight of the whole necklace. Once this calculation is done, you will easily see the commission or spread in the price of the amount of gold you have and how much money is being offered.

Selling gold jewelry is simply a tool we use in tough economic times. A survival tool for garnering some extra cash for something more important to you than old jewelry you never wear.

So host a gold home party, you might even sharpen up your math skills.
If you are interested in hosting a gold party we can recommend reputable gold buyers for you to use.

If you are in Canada, we recommend you call Gold Parties Canada, and if you are in the States, we recommend you use Fast Cash Gold Parties. Both these companies are affiliated with one another and have developed one of the best and most successful gold home party plans out there.

Today, with the economy the way it is, there are many individuals that have in their possession gold coins, which they are planning to liquidate, sell or turn into cash. More often than not, these people do not know where to sell their gold coins or even how much their gold coins are worth.

Knowing the right place to go when wanting to sell gold coins is paramount if you expect to get the best value in return.

Selling Gold Coins

Before you even consider how and where to sell gold coins, it is assumed you've looked after your gold coin collection carefully and kept them in good condition. Any paperwork that is necessary, or perhaps certificates and presentation cases should be in good condition as well.

Things to Consider When Planning to Sell Gold Coins

Ease of Identifying Gold Content - The easier it is determine the gold content of your gold coins, the better the chances for a sale.

Gold Prices - Gold prices go up and down regularly dependent on a number of factors. The price of gold could be going up the very day you want to sell your gold coins, but you can’t depend on your dealer to give you the exact rate.

Discrepancies in Gold Pricing - Gold coin dealers are not created equal. Choose one that is willing to pay you the most for your gold coins.

Selling Gold Coins Online - To sell your gold coin collection online, you can sell your gold coins in online auctions such as eBay or you can find your local gold dealers’ websites and compare their gold rate and what they are willing to pay you in exchange for your gold coins.

You may also try popular cash-for-gold websites. Just be sure you use an online service that comes recommended as being a reliable gold buying service... and once again, you want to use a gold buying service that pays you the best value for gold coins.

Selling your gold coins is the same as selling old gold jewelry. It is simply a tool we use in tough economic times, a survival tool for generating some extra cash for something more important... like paying rent, buying food or paying bills.

If you are interested in creating even more money for yourself, many of these gold buying companies will also help you host a gold buying party.

Gold Home Parties

The way gold parties work is pretty straight forward. You simply invite friends, family, neighbors and co-workers that are interested in selling old gold jewelry, gold coins and anything else they have that contains gold.

Once your guests have arrived and everyone is comfortably settling in socially, enjoying a beverage of choice and some snacks, your gold buying representative will begin taking your guests aside, one by one, and assessing their gold items.

An offer is made. The gold is sold and your guest goes home with money in their pockets. Pretty powerful concept in these tough economic times we live. There is even an extra bonus for the hosting the party. They get a commission from the total gold purchases, and if any of their guest decide to book a gold selling party of their own... the original host gets a commission from those gold home parties as well.

You can even connect with charities, non profits and fun raisers, schools, churches and organizations... even businesses, to host funraisers in support of their cause. Gold buying events such as these can be a real money maker for the person organizing them... or gold selling event host.

So, if you have some gold coins, jewelry or what have you that you want to turn into cold hard cash... and make a little extra money on the side while you do... go ahead, host a gold home party.

If you are interested in hosting a gold party, we can recommend reputable gold buyers for you to use.

If you are in Canada, we recommend you call Gold Parties Canada, and if you are in the States, we recommend you use Fast Cash Gold Parties. Both these companies are affiliated with one another and have developed one of the best and most successful gold home party plans in use today.

How to Value and Sell Old and Scrap Gold Jewelry.

Welcome to the fifth entry in our Sell Your Old Gold and Unwanted Gold Jewelry For Cash series.

With the economy in shambles and gold prices high, gold jewelry is another type of gold commodity that is a good source of investment, mainly due to its monetary value.

Gold jewelry items like gold rings, bracelets, earrings, necklaces and pendants can be stunning in both their artful designs and intrinsic glitter, as well as their high price and exclusivity.

Selling Old, Unwanted and Damaged Gold Jewelry

If you have gold jewelry items you would like to sell you need to sort them into two piles, one pile that can be sold as scrap gold and a second for jewelry items that are unique enough and in fine enough condition to still maintain their intrinsic value as jewelry.

The first pile of old gold jewelry can be sold to a gold buyer or auction online, mail in purchase or gold home party as scrap gold. Of course, with the gold home party you have the advantage of getting paid immediately, usually in cash, and you get to meet the gold buyer face to face.

Your second pile of gold jewelry, you may want to think twice before selling as scrap gold, because there may be items worth much more as is. A better approach would be to have these jewelries professionally appraised before making a final decision.

Once you know what each item is actually worth, you will be better equiped to make a decision as to what items to sell as scrap gold and which are to be kept or sold through a jewelry auction, or jewelry store that buys or consigns quality used jewelries.

Selling old gold jewelry for its scrap gold content sometimes returns little when compared to its original value as jewelry, but of course there are exceptions.

Since the prices paid for scrap gold are based on just the value of the metal itself, while completely ignoring the craftmanship, aesthetic, antique, and sentimental value, it only makes sense that not all your old gold jewelry items are suitable to be sold off at a gold party as scrap gold.

Please, use your common sense and if in doubt seek out a second opinion.

A reputable gold buyer, such as Gold Parties Canada and Fast Cash Gold Parties, would point out any items (brought for sale) that they believed where too valuable as is to be sold as scrap and melted down for their gold. Unfortunately, not all gold dealers are so honest. That's why its best if you take responsibility yourself for having any questionable jewelry pieces appraised before selling them as scrap.

Now, having said all that, if you are like most people, although you may have a few select pieces of jewelry unsuited for selling as scrap gold, most of your old, unwanted gold jewelry is comprised of old class rings and rings from long past relationships, broken chains and bracelets, mismatched earrings and just 'plain old jewelry' you no longer wear.

When separating your old jewelry into your two piles, you simply have to keep in mind that there are some pieces that indeed have little or no resale value, other for the gold they contain. These of course are the items you put in pile one and bring to your gold home party or scrap gold buyer and sell for some extra cash.

Lets face it, an earring that has lost its mate isn't of much value and simply must be bound for scrapping.

So, take your good gold jewelries and have them appraised so you know their worth, and remember that any gold jewelry that is less than 10 karats cannot be legally sold as gold. Also, real gold jewelry has the karat amount stamped right into it.

If the stamp is not present, chances are, it isn’t real gold.

Welcome to part four of our Selling Old Gold and Jewelry For Cash series.

What is Scrap Gold?

So, just what the heck is 'scrap gold' exactly, you might ask.

Well, scrap gold is basically anything that has gold in it. This includes the following examples and more.

• Bent, broken and mismatched jewelry.
• Bracelets or chains that are inextricably tangled.
• Broken and unwanted gold scraps.
• Casting gold and grain.
• Cluster rings and gold bracelets.
• Gold alloys.
• Gold bullion.
• Gold chains.
• Gold class rings.
• Gold coins and bars.
• Gold dental crowns and bridgework.
• Old gold watches.
• Placer gold and more.

The list of things that would qualify as scrap gold could go on just about forever, but these are some of the more common examples of scrap gold materials.

Selling My Scrap Gold

When selling your gold for scrap, obviously the condition of the gold item is of no importance. As long as there’s gold to be recovered, then it’s the ideal candidate for selling as scrap gold.

When it comes to broken jewelry items, most often it is not practical to repair. Things such as broken or mismatched gold earrings and other jewelries, broken chains etc are best gathered together and sold as gold scrap.

You have to realize though, that you will not get paid the face value of the items you are selling, but rather you will be paid for just the gold value contained within the item.

See Selling Gold By Weight - How to Sell Scrap Gold by the Karat to learn more about how scrap gold is valued for purchase based on its overall weight and karat, or quality.

How Do I Sell Scrap Gold?

When it comes to selling scrap gold, there is no shortage of buyers. With the economy in resession and gold prices high, it seems everyone and their dog is in the market of buying old, used, damaged and unwanted scrap gold.

However, when it comes to selling gold, the challenge becomes fining a gold buyer willing to pay you up front, in cash, an amount close to fair market value. In our experience, one of the best ways to sell off scrap gold is either by hosting a gold party where people bring their scap gold and sell it for cash, or via a private gold buying consultation.

So, the good news is, there are lots of places to sell your scrap gold and unwanted gold jewelry. The bad news is that you have to beware the gold buying scams and gold party rip offs.

If you live in Canada, we recommend you contact the good people at Gold Parties Canada. They host gold home parties and pay a good price for scrap gold and gold jewelry. They host a good party that your guests will enjoy, and they pay up front in cold hard cash.

Gold Parties Canada also does private gold buying consultations and if you prefer, you can contact them about mail in gold buying transations.

If you live in the United States, then we recommend Fast Cash Gold Parties. They work basically the same as Gold Parties Canada. The two gold buying companies, although working independent of one another on either sides of the border, they are in fact affiliated with one another.

They both pay fair value for your unwanted scrap gold, they pay in cash, and for anyone wanting to make a business out of hosting gold parties they have one of, if not the very best, gold party system out there.

What are the Different Ways I Can Sell Scrap Gold?

Gold parties aren't necessarily for everyone, and you do have other options when it comes to selling scrap gold.

Here are some of the ways to sell your scrap gold.

• Local Jewelers - Check your local jeweler to assess your scrap gold. The problem is, they usually don't pay much for scrap gold.
• Online Gold Dealers - Generally this involves giving your scrap gold to online dealers who provide you with special gold kits or mail-in envelopes for you to send your gold. Although some do offer better prices, extra caution is needed when doing online transactions. These online gold buyers also take longer to pay you.
• Online Gold Auctions - Auction sites like eBay can be a good place to sell your scrap gold online.

What Will I Get For My Scrap Gold?

The amount you get paid for your scrap gold is determined by purity, the current price of gold in the market place and the gold buyer you sell your gold to.

Gold Bullion and Gold Bars

Buying, Selling and Valuing Gold Bullion and Bars.

Welcome to the third entry in our Sell Your Old Gold and Unwanted Gold Jewelry For Cash series.

Buying, selling and the valuing of gold bullion and bars is not something many of us will have to, need to, or even be in a position to have the option to do.

But, its still gold and we figured it may be of interest to our readers.

What is Bullion?

A 'bullion' means any precious metal (gold included) that is in a form whose 'primary value' comes from the actual worth of the metal and not from an artificial currency value. The most familiar forms of bullion are coins such as gold bullion coins, or bars such as gold bullion bars.

Both bullion coins and bullion bars are minted and produced by national governments.

Determining the Value of Gold Bullion

The value of any bullion, gold or otherwise, is always determined by three factors:

• The Value of the Metal – Gold is worth more than silver while platinum is worth more than gold.
• The Actual Weight – Usually measured in troy ounces, where 1 troy ounce = 31g.
• The Purity – Bullion coins are usually made with 99.99% purity.

Examples of Bullion Coins

• U.S. Eagles are coins embossed with the image of a bald eagle. Gold Eagles are 91.67% pure.
• Canadian Maple Leafs are coins that come with the Canadian maple leaf embossed on the them. Gold Maple Leafs were the first 99.99% pure gold coins to be released.
• Chinese Pandas are coins that depict a panda bear, the image of which changes each year.
• South African Krugerrands are the first bullion coins ever released by a nation, and are made of gold.

Where to Sell Gold Bullion and Gold Bars

Any time you are selling gold bullions or gold bars, you need to pay a visit to the nearest gold or coin dealer in your area and determine their actual worth. It is the only sure fire way of knowing you are getting paid a fair price for your gold.

You first need to be clear on what the current price of gold is in the open market. Once you have determined that, the second challenge is finding a reputable dealer who will pay you close to the full value of your gold.

If you are unhappy with what you have been offered by local dealers, you have other options. You could use the power of the Internet and sell your gold bullion and gold bars at auction sites such as eBay. But there are risks in that lesser bids and lower price value are always present.

There are also online gold dealers who will give you cash for your gold. Be sure to check the company’s background before sending your gold using gold kits or envelopes. In fact we don't generally recommend mail-in gold sales as the best option. There are too many variables and unknowns, and once you part with your gold it may be difficult to get it back if you don't like the offer you get.

A better way to sell gold bullion and bars may be to call a gold buyer such as Gold Party Canada and Fast Cash Gold Parties and ask for a private consultation in regards to selling your gold. If you actually have gold bullion or bars to sell, a buyer such as Gold Party Canada or Fast Cash Gold Parties may be able to offer you a fair price by dealing with you directory.

Gold bullion is not something you would generally want to sell at a gold party, but a private consultation to see what they will offer you is worth the effort. With a private gold buying consultation, host commissions and other gold party expenses are eliminated, enabling the buyer to offer you a higher price.

Selling Gold By The Carat (Karat)

How to Sell Your Old Gold and Jewelry By The Karat (Carat).

Welcome to the second entry in our Sell Your Old Gold and Unwanted Gold Jewelry For Cash series.

You may be wondering why in the title we include the word carat spelt both ways... 'carat' and 'karat'. It is because both are legitimate spellings.

Carat and Karat Mean Gold Quality

The carat, or karat, (abbreviation ct or kt) is a measure of the purity of gold alloys. In the United States and Canada, the spelling 'karat' is used, while the spelling 'carat' is used to refer to the measure of mass for gemstones.

Measuring a Gold's Purity
By the Carat: 10k, 14k, 16k, 18k, 22k, 24k Gold

A gold items purity is measured in karats (or carats, its the same thing).

The term 'karat' harks back to the ancient bazaars where 'carob' beans (thus the origin of the spelling 'carat') were used to weigh precious metals... including of course, gold.

24 karat is pure gold, but its purity means it is more expensive and less durable than gold that is alloyed with other metals. Different alloys are used in jewelry for greater strength, durability and color range.

Karatage is the Percentage of Gold

The 'karatage' of the jewelry will tell you what percentage of gold it contains: 24 karat is 100 percent, 18 karat is 75 percent, and 14 karat is 58 percent gold. When comparing gold jewelry, the higher the number of karats, the greater the value.

In determining the purity of gold alloys, carat means a proportion by weight of one part in twenty four or 41.66 parts per 1000. This means that the higher the carat value, the higher the proportion of gold in relation to the base metal content.

The karat (carat) value chart below will help you understand the relationship between the the karat (carat) system and the percentage of gold contained within a peice of jewelry.

Carat Value and its Percentage (%) Gold Content

• 9k Yellow - 37.5
• 9k White - 37.8
• 9k Red - 37.5
• 14k Yellow - 58.5
• 14k White - 58.5
• 18k Yellow - 75
• 18k White - 75
• 18k Red - 75
• 22k Yellow - 91.7
• 22k Red - 91.7
• 24k - 100

Selling Gold by Karat (Carat)

It is a general rule that the higher the carat value, the higher the gold content, and the higher the price you will recieve for your gold jewelry items. Whether you are selling a gold bracelet, a gold necklace or a gold ring, you are going to be paid according to the carat value of the item.

You would be well advised to check out your local jewelry shops or gold dealers if you are planning to sell your gold by karat (carat). There are also online gold dealers that will buy your gold, in fact both Gold Parties Canada and Fast Cash Gold Parties will let you do a secured mail-in gold selling transaction, a gold home party or if you prefer, they will come to your home and have a private consultation and gold evaluation.

There are also online auction sites that allow you to sell your gold items by weight, but having looked into all these options, it is our contention that a well planned and organized gold home party is by far the most relaxed, comfortable way to turn old gold items and unwanted gold jewelry into cash, at least for most people.

Gold parties are also one of the fastest way to turn those old gold items into good old fashion cold, hard cash!
