When it comes to selling your gold for cash, you can either pop into your local shop or send it away in a freepost envelope. Before you do either, make sure you compare the market for the best prices for gold. Most high street retailers who buy gold will have a website online to check out. The internet is the place to do all your gold price comparisons. To date, I have not found a legitimate website which compares many gold buyers and shows the best rate. The only chance you have is to use each websites online gold carat calculator to estimate your best options. Yesterday, one website told me that 1 gram of 9 carat gold would fetch £8.23. Today, another website said the same weight and carat would fetch £6.60. The key here is to spend a little time making sure that you find the best retailer to sell your gold to. This could be the difference between a win fall and a rip off.Don’t worry if one retailer will not buy your old platinum or silver. If they do the best price for gold, still send it to them for cash. Find a different website who will take you platinum or silver remembering not to jump at the first buyer you laid eyes on.
