How to Get the Most Cash When You Sell Gold Chandler

Oro Express Chandler Pawn and Gold is here to discuss everything you need to know about how jewelry, coins, bullion and scrap gold are assessed and how to receive the highest payouts when you sell gold in Chandler.

Why the “Where” Matters to You Sell Gold Chandler

When it’s time to sell your gold, you never want to sacrifice a fair price, convenience, or both.  And these both are at risk when choosing a mail-in gold exchange.  Because there is a danger with it getting lost or stolen during transit, let alone long delays in receiving payment, and the chances of fees being incurred for shipping, to insure and/or valuation fees, that are not defined or explained in a transparent manner.  The best option is an actual physical Chandler location offering a safer and faster way to get a reliable payout for your gold.

That’s why when you sell gold Chandler, you want to choose Oro Express Chandler Pawn & Gold.  We’re an established business since 2013, that relies on live market pricing, transparent assessments and provides immediate cash payouts to our clientele.

How Gold Value is Calculated

When looking to sell gold Chandler, it is imperative to know what gold’s value is comprised of, so you can determine whether the offers you receive are fair, and which one to accept. There are three specific factors considered in the assessment and/or appraisal process before an offer can be determined. They are the following.

• Purity (The Karat System): Gold’s purity is defined by the proportion of pure gold to other metals (alloys) are in an item, and karats represent the gold percentages, as seen on purity chart to the right.
• Weight: The weight of precious metals is measured by grams and troy ounces.  A troy ounce (31.1034768 grams) is 10% heavier than a standard ounce (28.349 grams). The troy weight system came from the Middle Ages and the French city of Troyes; and the troy ounce is the only measure still in use, and is limited to the measurement of precious metals.
• The “Spot Price”: This is the market price of a precious metal’s buy and sell price at the time of purchase for immediate delivery.  From the time the markets open until the time they close, the spot price is constantly changing.

Our valuation process starts with the magnet test, to ensure that the item is not gold plated over magnetic metals, such as iron, nickel or steel. Next, for gold jewelry, we will use our acid testing kit to determine its purity, or for gold coins or bullion, we have the Sigma Metalytics device, that analyzes the gold’s fineness using electromagnetic waves. After that, your gold is weighed, and then our staff member refers to the current spot price, to calculate and present our offer to you.

3 Steps to Sell Gold Chandler

Selling vs Pawning: Which is Right for You?
