Trustworthy Gold and Diamond Buyer Quotes in Chicago…

Let’s face it. When it comes to selling your gold and diamonds, it’s a seller beware world. One subtle form of bait and switch has angered gold and diamond sellers for years, and it happens when a potential customer calls a gold and diamond buyer to request a quote over the phone, but instead of giving an honest buying offer, the gold buyer provides a false, unrealistic price just to lure the seller into an in-person meeting.

Once they arrive at the meeting, sellers learn the real cash offer extended by the gold and diamond buyer is actually much lower than the quote they received over the phone. What’s more, sellers can feel pressured to sell on the spot and take the unfair offer.

3 red flags a gold and diamond buyer is providing you a low-ball offer.

1. They dispute the karats. Dishonest gold and diamond buyers will haggle with consumers trying to persuade them their item weighs less than it actually does. Be sure you know the karat value of your gold jewelry, which is typically marked inside the diamond ring or gold watch.
2. They weigh different karat pieces together on the scale. Because karat weight greatly affects the value of a diamond, you need to be careful that items of different karat weights are not priced together with the lower karat piece devaluing the higher karat jewelry item.
3. They undervalue the current price for gold. The market price for gold fluctuates daily, and you need to know what the current price is before finalizing your gold buying transaction. At Cook County Gold Buyers we post the Kitco market price for gold daily on our homepage to keep our gold buying process honest. https://www.cook-county-gold-buyer.com
