The Pawn Shops are in High Demand: What You Need to Know About Pawning and Selling

Many of us are now in spring cleaning mode. You might consider selling or pawning your gold, silver or diamond jewelry if you are in dire need of cash. This is not something that all jewelers are interested. Continue reading to learn more about what you can sell and what you need to know before you pawn.

Sell or Pawn in-demand items

The Pawn Shop is known for selling and pawning a variety of items, including guitars and gold necklaces. Due to the bullish market for precious metals and gold in all forms - coins, bracelets/rings, necklaces, bracelets and rings - gold generally has higher estimates prices. You might also be able to make some serious cash by selling an old and unworn sterling silver flatware set. Prices for platinum and loose diamonds can be higher depending on their condition and weight. You should also consider selling or pawning watches, especially Swiss, gemstones, estate jewelry and antiques. The condition and market value will determine the estimated price.

Learn how a Pawn Loan works

Here's how a Pawn Loan works if you are considering pawning an item rather than selling it. The property will be appraised by an appraiser if you bring jewelry or other items to the pawn shop. The appraiser will then give you a price and the interest rate for the loan.

For jewelry and coins, the value of the item is determined by standard industry factors such as rarity, weight, and condition. For a specified period, typically 30 days, the pawnbroker will offer a fixed rate loan that is based on the agreed-upon value.

You will be paid cash in the agreed amount if you accept the terms and price of the loan. The item becomes collateral for the loan. A pawn ticket will be issued to you with your name, address, description and date of maturity. A copy of the receipt will be sent to the local police. You'll get your item back once the loan and any interest have been paid in full.

Choose the right pawn shop

As with any other business, pawn shops can be different from one shop to the next. While some pawn shops specialize in high-end items, others offer lower loan rates. Before you do business with a Pawn Shop, make sure that you do your research. Integrity and professionalism are essential. The best deal doesn't always come with the lowest loan amount.

A shop that is a member of The National Pawnbrokers Association (NPA) and has its appraisers trained by the Gemological Institute of America, the most respected authority on pearls, colored stones and diamonds in the world, is a good sign. Before agreeing to the loan, do your research and ask lots of questions.

Make sure your item sparkles

It's crucial that you get your items as clean as possible after you have decided what you want to sell or pawn. It's important that you know the differences between precious metals and gemstones. Make sure you research the cleaning instructions for each type of jewelry before cleaning. You should follow the instructions for cleaning the gemstones and not the metal if you have a piece of gold or silver with gemstones.
