Hi everyone,
I’ve recently closed down a small antique stall I was running and still have a handful of pieces left that I’d rather sell on properly. There’s an 18 carat gold chain, a 9 carat ring, a small bag of scrap gold, a pair of antique diamond drop earrings, a Victorian locket, and a silver snuff box.
I’m trying to figure out the best place to sell gold and antique diamonds in Newcastle upon Tyne, ideally somewhere straightforward for jewellery & silver for cash without loads of hassle.
I sold my items with Northern Bullion. I had a mix of gold sovereigns, half sovereigns, an 18ct bracelet, a diamond cluster ring, a silver cigarette case, and some silver cutlery. They tested everything in front of me and explained how the 9 carat and 18 carat values were worked out. Payment was made there and then.
I considered auction for a few gold coins and a silver tankard I’d inherited, but auctions are no good due to long wait times and high commission rates, better off using Northern Bullion. I sold everything with them in the end and it was much more straightforward.
After a recent divorce I decided to sell a few personal pieces, including a gold bangle, a 9ct dress ring, a broken 18ct chain, an antique diamond brooch, and a silver photo frame. I sold them with Northern Bullion and found the whole thing handled very discreetly and professionally.
Over the past year I’ve gradually sold a selection of items with Northern Bullion, including bullion bars, gold mourning rings, antique diamond solitaires, pocket watches, silver inkwells, and a couple of old napkin rings. Each time it’s been simple and consistent, which is all you really want when parting with valuables.
