When 10% More is Not Always A Good Thing.

There is a new company around us, they are operating mostly in the malls, this company is offering 10% more for the gold that you bring in, and sell to them. We had a client who asked us if this was for real? I could not answer the question because we did not know anything about them, but my gut told me that there was something not right about that. I told her go take a look maybe they will give you more for your gold then we do. I separated all of her gold, wrote down gram weights, and prices for each. She came back in an hour later with this to say

 

For the 21kt gold they would give her $18.00 a gram + 10% that would put her at $19.80 a gram. We are taking the 21kt gold @ $28.00 a gram.  She said she could not under stand how they could offer so little? As I told her “everyone is free to buy at what ever price they want to, and it is up to the consumer to decide if they want to sell to them or not.”

Ring Sizing…

Over the years we have noticed several things, about ring sizing there are some thing that you might like to take into consideration before you go have your ring sized.

What you had to had to eat during the day or the night before can affect the finger size. If you have had foods containing  high amounts of salt the night before, your finger may be swollen.

Try not to come in, in the morning before your fingers have a chance to get to their normal size, morning is not the best time to get your finger sized. If you have eaten salty foods for lunch try to wait until the next day to get your ring sized. Women that are pregnant might have swelling during their pregnancy’s, we try not to size rings during this time because after they give birth they will have to size them back down. It is not recommended to keep sizing rings up, and down. Every day your finger could be a different size, we recommend waiting for about a month before you decide this, we have found that after about a month you can get a good sign if they are just swollen in the morning, or if they do need to be sized.

Some medications that you may be taking could be the cause for swelling. If the medication is a temporary thing then do not size your rings, after you stop taking it the swelling should go down.

Rings that have 3 or more bands, like the trio diamond engagement ring sets, that are so popular these day’s may need each one to have a different size. What I mean by this is if the bands are wide, and your have 3 of them the last band that you put on may be closer to the knuckle.

Sizing your finger; when you have your finger sized at a jewelry store, do not tighten your finger, make your finger as relaxed as possible.  When you tighten your finger, your flex the muscles in the finger and this could make the finger smaller not giving an exact sizing. You should have a little pull over the knuckle, if the sizar slips right over the knuckle this size is too big for you. People with large knuckles may find that you may need a bigger size to go over the knuckle, but then have a ring that will be twisting on your finger. This can be fixed by having your jeweler put a couple of gold balls on the inside of the shank.

Gold falls from record hights…

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — Gold futures fell Thursday, pulling back from their record highs above $1,150 an ounce, as souring sentiment over U.S. economic prospects lifted the U.S. dollar, reducing gold’s appeal as a hedge against a weaker currency.

Have you updated your appraisal

Have you updated your appraisal?

If you have a lot of gold jewelry that you may have bought when the price of gold was lower, this would be a good time to get your jewelry appraised. Lets say you bought your gold when the price per once was $600.00, today the price per once is $1,108.00 an once. That is a huge price jump, and many of us forget that about the gold jewelry that we have in our jewelry box. You should have all your jewelry appraised not just the gem stone jewelry. Lets say you appraised your gold at the old price, and that gold jewelery was stolen you would only get the old price, (the price that gold was at when your appraisal was written). In this area we have so many people who by high karat gold jewelery, and many do not even think about having their gold appraised, and added to their home owners insurance, do not make this mistake.
