Title: Flogging me pikey gold Post by: Bob's Orange on Friday, July 11, 2014, 12:32:26 I bought a gold chain when I was 18 when it was (kind of) fashionable. I haven't worn it for years now and was thinking of using one of these cash for gold places to get some readies.
Has anyone used these before and can recommend? The chain cost either 200 or 300 quid in about 1998 from H Samuel. I think its 24 carat. I was thinking that I'd be happy with about a ton.

Got enough to celebrate for a weekend ( it was the 80s) Have you thought about EBay, may get a better price there Title: Re: Flogging me pikey gold Post by: anglia red on Friday, July 11, 2014, 12:57:27 Try your local Jewellers first.

I might try a jeweller. Title: Re: Flogging me pikey gold Post by: herthab on Friday, July 11, 2014, 13:04:24 Advertise it on a Gillingham forum.

Don't take less than £400
Title: Re: Flogging me pikey gold Post by: Gnasher on Tuesday, July 15, 2014, 12:20:46 Check the hallmark - it'll be there somewhere if it's real gold. 375 for 9ct gold (you won't get much) or 750 for 18ct gold. 990 or 999 for 24ct, but I'd be surprised if it's 24ct.

Cheers all. I suspect as I got it from H Samuel that it probably likely to be 9ct.

The company we use will give you £220 if it's 9ct. Processing fee might be £50! Check the hallmark before sending it. Title: Re: Flogging me pikey gold Post by: suttonred on Tuesday, July 15, 2014, 16:51:11 Contact the new U 18's manager, I reckon he'd snap your hand off ;)
