There’s no more opportune time than now for you to sell gold jewelry. Do you want to know why? In case you haven’t heard the news, you have been hiding under a rock somewhere, or you have been too preoccupied getting depressed over all of the negative news about the economy nowadays to pay attention to the good news, the price of gold is ever increasing as of this writing, worth well above a grand per ounce. That is correct, you read correctly: You should be selling gold jewelry right now because it is worth well over a grand per ounce!Gold has been on a consistent rise over the past several, hovering well above twenty percent per annum, the sole exception being a 5.6% decline in the year 2008. Even in the 2009, gold managed to recover from the global economic crisis and rebound already, at a 23% increase from 2008 levels!So what does this mean to owners of gold? It means that despite cyclical boom and busts, and the rise and decline of the dot coms, the rise and fall of real estate, the decline of the stock market, and the devaluation of the US dollar, have all proven to be rather volatile investment vehicles, the only stable investment during this entire period has been none other than gold.So if you have been in possession of gold for some time, now would be a good time to cash in on it, if you are hard up for some money as a result of this recession that we have all just been through.So where should we be selling gold jewelry? Whom should we be selling gold jewelry to? And how can you be sure that you redeem the best value?These are all very good questions. The answer is two-fold:1. Avoid selling your gold to a retail shop, at a pawn-shop, at a jewelry exchange. Really any type of customer-oriented retail store is a bad idea. Why is this the case? This is because retail stores are in in business for buying and reselling gold. They desire to procure gold from you for the purposes of of reselling it immediately, while earning a profit in the process. They basically are gold brokers who are seeking to earn commissions using the classic buy low to sell high plan. So it is quit obvious, that they would be be dealing tight margins of profit and would not be open to offer you the price that you would like.2. You ought to be selling your gold directly to a refinery of gold. Why is this the case? It is because a refinery of gold is in the business of obtaining gold, melting it down, and remanufacturing the gold raw material to other companies. There is no middle man. There is no flipping gold involved. They are able to offer you a superior price for your gold since the margin of profit in this type of situation is much greater. So it makes for a win-win solution that satisfies both the refinery and you.Gold remains a stable investment, and has continued to remain so while at the same time we have witnessed the rise and fall of the dot coms, the housing bubble, the stock market crash of the year 2008, and the decline of the US dollar. So now is a better time than any to sell gold jewelry
