What should I consider when I consult a company who buys gold?

Before you visit a place where gold will be bought, find out what you have. Keep in mind that you can calculate the value of your gold by yourself. We give you an example. We assume that you would like to sell an 18 karat gold ring that has a weight of 10 grams. The current spot price for gold is $2623.18/ ounce. (today). One troy ounce has a weight of 31.1 grams. Dividing $2623.18 by 31.1 tells us that fine gold which is pure gold (24 karat) will be traded for $84.35/ gram (today). Your gold ring has a purity of 18 karat and not 24 karat. 18 karat gold has a purity of 75.0 percent. To get the stock market price of your ring we multiply $84.35 by 0.750 to learn that 18 karat gold is worth $63.26/ gram. We multiply $63.26 by 10 to find out that your ring as a current stock market value of $632.60.

Unfortunately you won’t find a gold buyer who buys gold to that fantastic conditions. Gold buyers have to make a margin in order to stay in business. Independent consumer protection organizations recommend that a reliable gold buyer should not make a bigger profit than 10-20%. Below this amount you should not sell your gold to anybody who buys gold. In our concrete example this would be an amount of at least of $569.34 for your 18 Karat gold ring.
