Morning all,
I’m in Cramlington and have recently been sorting through a cupboard full of bits I’ve collected over the years. There’s a mix of items including a worn 18ct gold wedding band, a pair of broken gold cufflinks, a silver medal, a silver pocket watch chain, and a small diamond set tie pin.
Before I go anywhere else, I wanted to ask where people think the best place to sell gold and jewellery for cash is locally.
I sold my items with Northern Bullion. Mine included a 9ct gold ring, a silver cigarette case, an old silver photo frame, and a small antique diamond brooch. Everything was explained clearly and tested in front of me, which put me at ease.
I originally looked at auctions but they were no good — long wait times and high commission rates meant you’d be waiting months. I ended up selling scrap gold jewellery, a broken 18ct chain, and a handful of silver coins through Northern Bullion and was paid the same day.
I’m just along the road and recently cleared my aunt’s bungalow. I found a silver inkstand, a pair of silver candlesticks, a gold signet ring, and a tiny diamond pendant. Northern Bullion’s online calculator helped me get a rough idea before visiting, and the valuation matched closely.
Over time I’ve sold a really mixed selection with Northern Bullion, including 9ct and 18ct gold rings, scrap gold jewellery, engagement rings, antique diamond items, 925 silver chains, coins, bullion, silver cutlery, pocket watches, silver pens, cigarette cases, candleholders, picture frames, and small decorative boxes. It’s been the most straightforward and transparent option I’ve found for selling gold and silver for cash.
