I need some extra cash and want to get rid of a lot of useless broken jewelry. Are any of them reliable as they claim to be on tv?

I am only 19, I have noticed most want you to be 21. Are all of them that way?

If you choose to sell your gold as scrap, please do not use one of the outfits that advertise on TV--they will not give you the best price because they are marketing their services to the general public and not to in-the-tade individuals who are more knowledgeable.
Send your gold to a reputable refiner. There are several who offer refining services to the jewelry, dental, etc. industries and that is where you would get the fairest shake for your scrap.
I've used David H. Fell & Co. in Los Angeles for years. They are a very reputable company with a good history and a well set-up refining service. See the link below.
Good luck.

You can sell your gold to a local goldsmith but I am afraid you will not get the kind of money you want. I sold a box full of gold once and got about $80. Gold was at a much lower price than now but remember pure gold is 18 karat and most jewellery is 10-12 so it is not all gold.

Jewelery seldom is pure gold so the buyer will only pay for the gold content. A gold smith can determine the amount of gold in the items and will pay accordingly. No you will not get rich from selling old jewelery.
If it is gold jewelery it might bring more money as jewelery for another than it will for gold.

The reason they want you to be 21 is so that later on you can't say that you really didn't want to sell your stuff. It's just a way to protect themselves. I don't think you'll get much, but something is better then nothing.

The only scrap gold I have is my wedding band. It's not worth much.

please do not send in your gold.think about it.first of all.all packages are scanned so they will know what is in there.and second do you really want to trust someone you don't know or will never know or see with your valuables.i think not.
