We buy items that contain gold, silver, platinum, diamonds or other precious stones such as:

If your item isn’t on this list – please contact us – it may be worth something

This is calculated on;

Gold content
Weight of gold plus
Current gold prices.

We will weigh and evaluate your gold and explain its value.

There are no fees or hidden costs.

This will depend on its quality, precious metal content and stones.

Diamonds are worth a lot more than other precious stones and we pay a premium for quality diamonds.

Silver is not worth nearly as much as gold, but dependant on the piece may be of some exchange value.

It is difficult if you are inexperienced to appraise jewellery so we invite you to visit us so we can give you an idea of what your items are worth. You are also most welcome to call us, however in most cases we need to see the piece to determine its proper value.

We have been jewellers for over 30 years and are very experienced and knowledgeable in valuing all kinds of jewellery, so you can be assured of receiving a correct valuation.

The most common gemstone we pay for is diamonds – but we do look for good quality gemstones.

It they are of poor quality unfortunately we will not be able to make an offer. We do pay a premium for quality diamonds though.

For other gemstones, it is dependent on what it is and again its quality, so we would love to see you in-store or contact us to let us know what you have and we will advise you if it is of any value.

For gold you need to consider that it is an international traded commodity with its price varying on a daily basis. In addition the price of the Australian Dollar is also instrumental in the final worth of gold on the Australian market. The good news is gold continues its record high prices!

Please also remember that your jewellery will not be all gold. Different carats yield different ratios of gold, as per below, and set stones weight must also be deducted;

9ct gold      37.5% gold

14ct gold    58.3% gold

18ct gold    75% gold

22ct gold    90% gold

24ct gold    100% gold

The rest of the weight is made up of alloys and in Australia most people prefer the look of gold mixed with alloys so 22ct or 24ct gold is on the rarer side.

We will carefully check each piece of jewellery and expertly determine the quality of the gold and pay accordingly.

It has come to our attention, through customers, that at some of the gold parties*, mistakes (deliberate or otherwise) have been made in determining what gold you have. For example, paying 9ct price for 10ct or even in one case, 18ct gold.

Please note that we do buy silver but it is not worth nearly as much as gold.

Because we are jewellers we are able to expertly apprise all sorts of items – not just gold.

Quite often people are quickly trained to look at gold but have no idea about anything else nor the interest in jewellery like we have.

While there is a lot we can buy, there is some we cannot, as they are worth little or nothing.

What we don’t buy:

Costume Jeweller
Stainless steel (for example watches
Anything rusty (gold or silver doesn’t rust!)
Copper
Brass
Pearls
Silver plate

Please note that you will need a lot of heavy silver items to receive a reasonable return.
