Scrap gold

If you're going retail, it'll be spot less 10% as I've seen it. I'd say almost any jewelry store, pawn shop or coin shop could do that. If you sale on line, I think you'd do better. Maybe closer to spot price. Just make sure of what you're selling is accurate. Personally, I'd hang on to it. Good investment. But it is higher than it has ever been right now

Respectfully, you are wrong. The most you can get from a shop that's not a pawn shop is about 80%. They won't pay anymore than that because they don't have to. A pawn shop will offer less than half. There are just to many hands it has to go through with everyone needing a piece to stay in business. Way back in the day I used to do scrap gold. Under 1 kilo the refinery would pay 92%. If you had 10 kilos and over, you could get 96%. I suspect it's still the same way.

Those are the quotes I've seen in the past several years. It's all good. I said my 2 cents. It's free advice, take it any way you please. I wouldn't sell for less than 10% under market. And I probably won't then either. I'd try to go another route. Then again, I so rarely trade anyway.

Metals are a long game investment. If someone is trying to do it quick, you have to buy it cheap. The great thing about metals is there is room for everyone. Folks that invest, collect, flip, make things to retail, open a shop, etc.
 
I sent my scrap and a couple of other pieces to Ilovesilver97 Ilovesilver97 . He paid top dollar and was a pleasure to deal with. It's a little worrisome to send gold by mail to someone you don't know but based on his feedback from fellow members it went very smoothly. Really good communication and quick turnaround. I was most worried about USPS. I insured the package but the way they operate these days I wasn't sure it would get there and certainly didn't want to have to do an insurance claim.
