Selling Your Gold FAQ
Q: What kinds of items do you buy?
We buy gold, silver, and platinum in all forms — including broken or outdated jewelry, coins, bullion, and even sterling silver flatware, serving sets, and tea sets. If it’s precious metal, we’ll make you an offer.
Q: Do you buy silver-plated items?
We only purchase solid sterling silver (marked .925 or “sterling”). Silver-plated items do not contain enough silver content to hold melt value.
Q: How does the process work?
Simply bring your items to Venus Jewelers. Our trained gemologists will test and weigh them right in front of you, explain each step clearly, and make you a no-obligation offer on the spot. If you accept, you’ll be paid immediately — no waiting, no mailing, no pressure.
Q: Why should I sell to Venus Jewelers instead of mailing items online or going to a pawn shop?
Trust & Transparency: We’ve been a family-owned local jeweler for over 46 years, known for honesty and integrity.
Expert Appraisers: Your items are evaluated by certified gemologists, not middlemen.
Instant Payment: Walk out with cash or a check on the spot.
Safe & Private: Everything is handled securely, in-store, with complete discretion.
Q: Do I need an appointment?
Walk-ins are always welcome, but you can also schedule a private evaluation if you prefer one-on-one attention.
Q: What do I need to bring?
Please bring a valid photo ID (required by law for gold transactions) and your items. That’s it — we handle the rest.
