If you think the jewelry may be worth a substantial sum, have it appraised by a professional. If you aren’t sure, it’s worth the cost of an appraisal then take it to a free appraiser at a jewelry shop.

Know what precious metals are contained in your jewelry before looking for where to sell jewelry. If you don’t know these things, someone may take advantage of that.

Understand what karat means, especially if you intend to sell your gold jewelry. 24 karat gold is pure, undiluted gold. 14 karat gold is about 58% gold; with the remainder consisting of hardening alloys. 10 karat gold contains just 42% gold by weight.

Know the common measurements by which jewelry is assessed to determine its worth. Even though prices are listed for consumer understand-ing as price per gram or ounce, some dealers will try and buy it from you based on pennyweights which favors the buyer and means less money in your pocket.

Visit an online directory like Yahoo! Luriya.com, or an offline directory like the Wall-street Journal, to see the most up-to-date market prices for your jewelry.

Clean your jewelry thoroughly, so that it makes the best presentation possible. After all, jewelry dealers aren’t buying scrap metal.

Before selling jewelry online, look them up on the Better Business Bureau’s website. If they’ve swindled or tried to swindle anyone in the past, this would most certainly have been reported and they would have received a low rating. If so, avoid them.
