I brought in one of my husbands class rings (he has 2) and a sold gold 18" rope chain and got $635 for it!!!
Really? So the price of gold is still high, huh?
I've been meaning to check it out for a long time as I have a pretty massive tangled-up/broken chain I don't need, but I've been putting it off... But maybe I should... Who knows... maybe one day I might need it to get some food... Come to think of it, if it comes to a choice between gold and food, food probably will win...

Gives you the daily exchange rate for commodities. It dropped a few bucks today, I beleive earlier floor rate was at $1735 and a few pennies.
He never wore the two things we exchanged. Not sure I am ready to part with things I still wear or that have sentimental value. If we NEEDED the money absolutely though!
ETA: You can google to find online calculators to translate the value of your karat weight. The buyer will always take a cut. I calculated the two items I brought in to be about $790 based on weight so it was a pretty decent exchange. He had the he highest exchange rate of the few places I went to.

So, how long has this bubble been going on? When is it about to burst?
I have quite a bit of gold, both jewelry and inherited coins, but I'm in the habit of keeping it for rainy days...

Not sure when it's going to burst but I don't think it will just yet. It's a gamble though! I've read that the projected high is anywhere from $2K to $5K...depends on who you ask. Most of what I have read says it will continue to increase until the dollar gains value again. Who knows!
Woooo hoooo! I vote that YOU take us out for dinner! lol
