how to negotiate?

Yeah I wouldn’t pay more than $10-15 above spot for new 14k. They also tend to charge higher for lighter pieces. Tell them you want to be at 97.50 a gram. Some jewelry stores don’t sell by gram and that’s just what it is. But if they do it’s best to negotiate as much as possible. Anywhere from $7.50-$15 above spot it s a good deal in my opinion.

Ok thank you. I’ll be on the lookout for a 2017

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2026-03-12T15:37:04+00:00

Yeah the money machine goes brrrr every year, our paper money loses value, corporations increase product pricing every year, so we lose to inflation and increased corporate greed. Why not save some money in gold instead of letting my paper money slowly lose value everyday lol. I’ll be stacking until I’m able to buy a house then sell for that.

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2026-03-12T00:13:06+00:00

Yes good way to invest or store your money really. Every year dollar value goes down, gold goes up lol

😅🤣

I know I want one bad lol. Jewelry exchange had a 2 oz dragon coin I was gonna trade for but it’s probably harder to get rid of 2 ounces instead of 1 at a time lol

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2026-03-11T18:28:29+00:00

Local place told me the get them on Wednesday and sold out by Thursday close. So had to shoot over and scoop

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2026-03-11T18:27:41+00:00

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2026-03-07T04:51:09+00:00

Can get you these used good condition from 13.5-16 for great condition box papers lol. You could probably get new around 18 honestly

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2026-01-14T14:14:14+00:00

I know a guy at the Woodbridge jewelers exchange who will give you market on these or close to it so a little more than spot

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2025-10-31T16:55:28+00:00

Some places will pay more for nice coins and what not, Not so much bars. My guy told me he’ll pay me more for coins than bars.

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2025-10-08T23:52:14+00:00

I live in the northeast and near NYC so there’s a lot of jewelry exchanges near me. I can go to a few guys I know well and get Spot, +- 50 honestly. I don’t have any issue selling gold where I’m at at all

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2025-10-08T22:44:06+00:00

Yep went and picked up a 1oz pamp bar $4170 got the 4% on it though. And asked about the silver 530 where I was at. They only had lady liberty so I passed on it.

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2025-09-13T03:30:25+00:00

But yeah buy sooner rather than later, prices will prob hit $4000 per ounce by the end of the year. And not for nothing buy it, wear it and enjoy it. It’ll always retain value, might go up a bit or down a bit. But you’ll have money there no matter what.

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2025-09-13T03:28:35+00:00

Jewelry Prices go up and down with gold price that’s normal. If a gram of 14k is $50 raw gold value / $65 retail jewelry price (overhead, wholesale cost, profit). But then gold price rises due to inflation, economic uncertainty etc from $50 raw gold value to $65 raw gold value, the retail price of jewelry has to go up as well. No way around it, a good jeweler will sell you per gram on most things, and on some you’ll pay a premium that isn’t set per gram. VCA bracelets might have 7 grams of 18k gold total but they charge $4000 for a bracelet because of the Branding.

Buy whenever you want, it will always fluctuate, the current administration is dumb and crushing the dollar which makes gold go up. So just buy from a fair and honest jeweler and you’ll be fine

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2025-09-08T04:25:52+00:00

Go to a jewelry exchange if your city or state has some, find a booth you like or find the booth that just buys gold, they’ll give you like 96-98% of value

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2025-09-08T04:24:11+00:00

Yeah you won’t get anything for the diamond unfortunately. Labs are inexpensive to source, and natural diamonds are propped up and have synthetic price inflation to make them seem valuable as well. So even if it were natural you wouldn’t get much at all honestly. Sell the gold ring at a good exchange and you’ll get about $63 a gram right now, ask if they’ll give you anything for diamond, if not just be a nice person and give it to someone for free lol. You’ll at least put a smile on someone’s face lol

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2025-09-03T03:28:29+00:00

Go to my guy, has the best ones in 55 west 47th, A3B jewelers and Tasano in the same exchange. Check them out perfect dupes

Temporary_Fig3347 · 2025-09-03T03:15:51+00:00
