I realize we sometimes do not want to part with our possessions. However, are you really aware of the price of Gold & Silver? Old jewelry, whether it's broken, out of style or if you just never liked it can get you that extra cash you may need. However, it's advisable to find a reputable jeweler before cashing it in; the thought of some of these mail away for cash commercials is scary. How would you know if they are paying you for 10K, 14K or 18K? You need to be right in front of them as each piece is tested. Good Luck!
