Where to Sell Gold in Little Rock: How We Evaluate, Price, and Pay
With gold prices hovering near record highs, many Little Rock sellers are choosing to cash in now. If you’re considering selling, you should know exactly how your items are evaluated and how offers are determined. Our process is straightforward: we test in view, explain results, and show the numbers before you decide.
How We Evaluate (In Plain View)
When you arrive, we verify hallmarks (10k, 14k, 18k, etc.) and then confirm metal content using XRF (X-ray fluorescence)—a non-destructive scanner that reads the elemental composition beneath the surface. You see the screen when we do. If a piece is gold-filled or plated, XRF identifies it; if it’s solid 14k, XRF confirms that, too.
How Offers Are Calculated
After purity is confirmed, we weigh each piece and apply current market pricing. If a piece carries value beyond metal content—designer, vintage, or high demand—we factor that in as well. The arithmetic is transparent: purity × weight × market, plus any premium for design and demand. We write the figure on your ticket and give you time to decide—no pressure.
What We Buy
We purchase gold and silver jewelry—broken or whole, antique, estate, or modern—as well as gold & silver coins and bullion and sterling diningware. If an item is plated, we’ll tell you; if it’s sterling, we’ll verify and price it accordingly.
What to Bring
Bring a valid government-issued ID and your items. Boxes, receipts, appraisals, links, and matching pieces can help with context, but they’re not required. Please do not polish antique items; natural patina is acceptable.
Typical Questions
Does broken jewelry have value? Yes. For precious metals, value is based on metal content and weight, not whether a chain is intact.
Can you quote from photos? We can provide a ballpark from photos, but the final offer requires in-person testing and weighing.
How long does it take? Most evaluations take minutes, depending on quantity and complexity. Payment is made the same day if you accept.
Local Notes
We follow the same process at all locations. In Little Rock and North Little Rock, we commonly see gold chains, rings, and coins/bullion. In Conway, we frequently evaluate student-owned jewelry and silver. In Greater Nashville (Hermitage and Franklin), designer pieces and mixed estates are common. The testing, pricing method, and documentation are consistent everywhere.
Your Options
If you’d rather borrow against an item and keep it, we can outline a pawn option in the same conversation: 60-day minimum, 30-day renewals, no maximum term, and clear monthly service charge tiers. We’ll show both paths—sell or pawn—so you can choose what fits.
Closing the Sale
If you accept the offer, we finalize paperwork and issue same-day payment. You leave with a copy of the ticket and a clear understanding of how we arrived at the number.
