“So happy I found Alloy!”

Excellent in every way. I would give them ten stars if I could. From first contact via email to the completion of the sale of my jewelry, everyone I dealt with treated me kindly, answered my questions, and was professional in every way. I received great prices for my jewelry; way more than was quoted at a local jeweler. Would absolutely come back to do business with Alloy again.

Frequently Asked
Questions

Selling jewelry online starts with understanding your jewelry’s value and choosing the buyer who best fits your needs.

First, identify a hallmark, or stamp, on your piece. This will tell you the purity and percentage of pure precious metal present. Then, weigh it using a kitchen or postage scale. From there, use the calculator above to discover the value of the gold in your jewelry, or the melt value. If you have platinum jewelry, try our Platinum Calculator. Once you know the base level value for your jewelry, you can choose a buyer.

Select an online selling option that meets your needs. If you have a designer piece and want to extract more value from your jewelry than its melt value, try an auction site like eBay or a full-service concierge platform like The RealReal. These platforms allow you to reach a wider audience who may be willing to pay a premium for a designer name. They do take time, however, and may also charge a premium for their services.

For jewelry that doesn’t carry high demand, is broken, or damaged, or if you just don’t want to spend time waiting to procure a buyer, consider selling with The Alloy Market. We make selling for a high amount from the comfort of your home simple. Request a free evaluation kit, and we’ll ship it directly to you. Use the postage-paid parcel to package your jewelry to ship directly to us.

Our team will use professional-grade testing equipment to evaluate your jewelry and send you a detailed offer the same day it is received. When you accept, we initiate payment on the same business day. We also offer a price match guarantee. Bring a competitor’s offer, and we’ll meet or beat it up to 95% of the spot price.

You can sell jewelry online through various platforms, each offering different benefits. Direct precious-metal buyers like The Alloy Market offer fast, insured shipping and competitive payouts for pieces being sold for melt value.

For designer, vintage, or pieces with large gemstones suitable for resale, marketplaces like eBay, Poshmark, or the RealReal may fetch a higher sale price. Sales can take weeks, even months, to complete, and it’s essential to understand all the fees involved. Typically, these platforms charge a commission that can range from 10% to 20% of the sale price, depending on the item and its final selling price. This option is excellent for people who aren’t in a rush to sell, and being aware of these costs helps ensure you’re getting the best value for your jewelry.

The best place to sell jewelry depends on what you’re selling and what you want to get out of the sale.

For sellers with jewelry from a notable designer, vintage pieces, or large gemstones, consider listing on resale platforms such as eBay, Poshmark, or The RealReal. It’s possible to procure a buyer willing to pay a premium for something special on these sites. The tradeoff is that you may pay a bit in fees for the service, and finding that buyer can take weeks or even months.

For a high payout and a simple process from the comfort of your home, consider selling with The Alloy Market. You can order a free evaluation kit that we ship right to you. Pack your items in the free, postage-paid parcel and ship them back to us for evaluation. Once it arrives, our team assesses it and sends you a detailed offer. When you accept, we issue payment on the same business day.

The buyer who pays the most for your jewelry depends on the kind of value your piece has. For most items, ones without high resale value, or even broken pieces, buyers who evaluate based on the melt value are going to be the best bet. They calculate the offer price based on the weight, purity, and spot price of the precious metal, so you’re getting paid based on that alone; the condition doesn’t matter. The Alloy Market is one such online buyer.

If your jewelry is extra special, has a high resale value, features a large gemstone, or comes from a well-known designer, you may receive a higher payout through a consignment service, auction platform, or peer-to-peer marketplace. Buyers here are looking for something unique and are often willing to pay a premium for it. The type of sale takes time, however, so be prepared to wait a while before procuring a buyer. 

The best way to avoid getting ripped off when selling jewelry is first to understand your piece and its value. Start by identifying the purity, weighing the item, and then calculating the value using our free precious metal calculators. They use live-updating market spot prices, so you are getting the most accurate pricing for your jewelry.

Next, be strategic in comparing offers to empower your decision-making. Reach out to various buyers and ask for detailed quotes. Use questions like “Can you explain how your payout rates are determined?” or “What is the breakdown of the offer by purity and weight?” Look for buyers who provide free tools for valuing jewelry, similar to those offered by The Alloy Market. Steer clear of buyers who give only lump-sum offers; prioritize those who clearly outline the value of each item.

Lastly, avoid any buyer who pressures you, withholds information, or charges unexpected fees. Legitimate online buyers who provide you with free, insured shipping, no-obligation evaluations, and free returns if you decline the offer. Only work with companies that are completely transparent in every step and have an excellent reputation with their customers in the form of online reviews.

o secure the highest payout, first determine your jewelry’s value. Find a hallmark to check purity, weigh the piece, and consult current market prices for gold, platinum, or silver. Use our online calculators for precise melt value estimates. With this information, you can confidently assess offers and avoid low valuations.

From there, you must choose a selling method that aligns with your desired result. If your piece is designer, antique, or in high demand, explore consignment, a peer-to-peer marketplace, or even a private sale. While these options take time, they often pay above melt value.

For broken or non-designer pieces, you’ll usually get the best payout from a reputable precious-metal buyer. Shop around and compare offer prices and terms. When you have a couple of offers in hand, consider sending your items to The Alloy Market for evaluation. We carry a highest price guarantee and will meet or beat any competing offer up to 95% of the spot price.

Whether it’s better to sell jewelry online or in person depends on your end goal and priorities. Both options are viable, but each has its own pros and cons.

If someone needs immediate cash, an in-person, local option is best. They can walk into either a pawn shop, a jeweler, or a cash-for-gold buyer with their items and walk out with money in their pocket. The tradeoff is that payouts vary from buyer to buyer, so to get the highest offer, you usually have to visit several shops to compare. For people who don’t like confrontation, negotiation can be intimidating in such situations.

If someone wants to sell a designer piece or an item with a large gemstone, online platforms are an excellent choice. Several platforms exist to help buyers find this type of jewelry, like eBay, The RealReal, Poshmark, and Vestiaire. The downside is that they charge fees for the service, and it can take weeks or even months to find a buyer.
