Selling Gold — Complete Guide to Getting Top Dollar for Your Gold

Thinking about selling gold? Learn how to get the best price, what to expect, and where to sell. Free evaluation, same-day payment. No obligation.

Selling gold is one of the fastest ways to turn unwanted jewelry, coins, and bullion into cash. Whether you're selling a single gold ring or a collection of gold items, understanding the process helps you get the best price. Arthurs Gold Market makes selling gold transparent and rewarding.

The key to selling gold successfully is choosing a buyer who tests and weighs transparently, references real-time spot prices, and pays a high percentage of melt value. We pay 85-95% of spot price for gold jewelry, with same-day payment and no obligation to sell.

Tips for Selling Gold

Before selling gold, check the current spot price so you know what your gold is worth. Sort your items by karat purity. Bring all items, including broken and damaged gold — they still have value based on metal content.

Get evaluations from at least two buyers to compare offers. Choose a buyer who tests and weighs in front of you, explains the calculation, and doesn't pressure you to sell. At Arthurs Gold Market, we encourage you to compare offers.

  • Sort gold by karat (10K, 14K, 18K, 22K, 24K)
