Another Resurgence in Gold Prices!


With the latest upswing in the gold market - $1,228.00 per ounce as of Friday, it is once again a great opportunity to sell your broken, scrap or unwanted items. Many analysts had predicted that the gold market cannot sustain above the $1,200 mark, however we have seen it cross this historic threshhold for the 3rd time in the last calendar year.
Each subsequent time that the market crosses the $1,200 plateau, we are seeing higher levels of resistance, i.e. $1,215/ounce in December, then over $1,250 just a few months back. The prices generally have dropped, however are stabilizing at higher levels each time. Many analysts say that the market may cross over the $1,350/ounce range by December. The truth is, that nobody knows for sure - but it is interesting to examine the trends that have taken place over the last year.
This only means good news for the consumer: Higher payouts for your gold, silver and platinum items. Now the question remains: Where should you sell your jewelry and coins?
Beware of unscrupulous dealers that are tending to pop up on every corner, as many are looking to make a quick buck. Within the last year, we have seen many of these type of outfits come and go - reason being that they are not in the industry for the right reasons. Also be wary of outfits promising hundreds and hundreds of dollars of "bonus cash" or gas money in their advertisements. If they have to add hundreds of dollars in bonus cash, it is likely that their up front pricing is not high.
At Sell Us Your Gold, we treat all our customers with integrity and honesty. Visit our Gilbert or Scottsdale location, and you will see how professionals handle the art of purchasing your jewelry. We ensure that you are comfortable with the process, and offer highly competitive pricing.
The proof is in our clientele. The majority of our business is through repeats and referrals. It is not about one transaction, it is about building a long-term business relationship. We conduct business in a safe, professional environment - and have changed the landscape of the gold buying business.

Returning Integrity to the Gold Business


As we continue to interact with our growing customer base, it is truly shocking to hear some of the experiences that they have encountered at other "Gold Buyers" throughout the Valley. Tales of deception, bait & switch tactics, along with leaving with the feeling that they got an unfair deal are commonplace. It is the goal of Sell Us Your Gold to change that perception.
We represent 2 generations within the jewelry industry - with over 35 years experience in the wholesale, retail and purchasing aspects of the gold business. Our extensive knowledge of the industry, and commitment to integrity will ensure that you receive the best possible experience when you come to our 2 locations.
We always encourage our customers to bring in their items for a full analysis, and will give an honest, fair assessment on whether we can provide maximum value for their items. For example, a repeat customer wanted to sell a 130 year old coin that was in graded mint condition. Knowing that local coin collectors may pay more for this item, we encouraged the customer to check with these collectors to receive maximum value. Remember, we are not the "typical" gold buyer!
We test each item in front of you, explaining the process to ensure you will be comfortable in selling your valuable gold, silver and platinum items. Our pricing structure is very upfront, and consistent with changes/fluctuations in the precious metals market.
Still not convinced? Come into our Gilbert or Scottsdale location to experience for yourself!

Are All Coupons Created Equal?


When flipping through your local coupon books, newspapers, mailers, etc., you would have to notice the upswing in the number of gold buyers offering "Bonus Payouts." Its a great way to attract attention - even we at Sell Us Your Gold do it as well. But the question is: Are all coupons created equal?

There are buyers who offer 5% extra payouts, 10% extra payouts, even as high as 25% extra. Do the higher coupons promise the best possible payout? The answer is no.

Be sure to read the fine print written on the coupon. Some buyers publish a higher amount of bonus cash, but expect a near impossible amount in order to achieve the so-called bonus payout. One store required over $2,000.00 minimum in order to achieve their advertised payout. The vast majority of consumers would not have that much jewelry to begin with.

Secondly, if there are buyers who are offering exorbitant amounts like 20% or 25% extra, it is likely that their up front pricing is not very good.

At Sell Us Your Gold, you can ensure that our prices are extraordinary. First, we do not require any minimums if you bring in a coupon. Whether its $3.00 or $3,000, we will honor the coupon regardless. Secondly, our up front, honest pricing ensures that you are getting the best deal, even without the coupon. We test the items in front of you - ensuring that you will get maximum value on your Gold, Silver and Platinum items.

What has been the common thread among Sell Us Your Gold customers versus the competition? Our customers consistently state that we carry ourselves with honesty, integrity and give them no doubt that we are giving them an honest, fair deal. That is why the majority of Sell Us Your Gold customers are repeat customers and referrals.

See for yourself, we now have two locations to serve you:

Gilbert-
1034 N. Gilbert Rd, Suite 4

(480) 398-3249
