You can send your gold jewelry off to a mail-order refiner, but you should consider other options for jewelry, particularly jewelry with gemstones or diamonds. Many of the mail order gold refiners purchase second hand jewelry for refining - not for reselling. Prices are based ONLY on the weight and karat grade contained in the jewelry. They generally do not pay for gemstones other than small diamonds. If your jewelry contains gemstones or larger diamonds, you may make more money by taking it to a jewelry store or pawn shop.
A pawn shop or jewelry may determine the value of your jewelry based on it's value as a piece of jewelry for resale, while places like Cash4Gold melt down your gold and sells the gold itself. It doesn't matter what your gold looks like.
If you are still not sure if you want to make money from your gold jewelry, you can visit the cash4gold website, and check out their terms and policy pages. You must be at least 21 years old to sell your gold to cash4gold.com.
Check your local phone book for pawn shops or jewelers that advertise "We buy gold jewelry," and you may very well get more money for your unused gold jewelry.
14K gold earrings are a great value. These earrings have all the beauty of gold, without the hefty price tag of pure 24 karat or 18kt gold. 14 karat gold is also generally less prone to breakage or damage, since the alloys that are blended with the gold create a stronger piece of jewelry.
What is 14 karat gold? The K stands for karat, the system used to identify how much solid, pure gold is found in a piece of gold jewelry. 14K gold contains 14 parts gold and 10 parts of another metal(s), making it 58.3% gold. True 14 karat gold jewelry will be stamped with the mark 14 karat, 14k or 14kt.
The internet is a great place to find stylish and high quality gold earrings, and often at discount and bargain prices. Here's a sample of 14k gold earrings that are available for sale online right now on ebay:
