Scrap Sterling Silver Prices

When times get tough, one of the first things people turn to is buying and selling valuable materials, such as sterling silver and gold, and it's really no surprise. After all, they maintain their value. With the economy in its current state, this method of managing money issues has turned up again, as more people discover the value of scrap silver.

If you're willing to pay attention to prices and you know what you're doing, you could make quite a lot of money buying and selling scrap sterling silver. However, if you don't know what you're doing, it's possible to lose money. Let's take a look at how you can recycle scrap into real money without a lot of risk.

Scrap Sterling Silver For Sale

Scrap silver can be a very profitable sideline since its value continues to rise. Silver is in short supply and any scrap you come across probably has some intrinsic value. There are many ways to find scrap silver, including by taking apart old electronic items, collecting coins, and by buying broken jewelry. This silver isn't wearable anymore (if it is, you should never sell it as scrap) but it's still worth its weight as sterling silver, and if you know where to send it, you can make some real money. The current going rate is about fifteen dollars per ounce, but that changes by the day and even the hour, so you'll need to check carefully if you want to be sure you buy and sell at the right time.

You can find some really amazing deals on real silver jewelry and other pieces that have been dented or tarnished beyond being cleanable, but you need to know what you're looking for. Pure silver is obviously best, but alloys can also be valuable. Make sure that you choose pieces that are real silver, and learn what the telltale signs of real silver are over those base metals. No one wants to buy a piece they believe is a good investment only to discover that it's a fake, after all.

If you take a little time and care to do some research, you could really profit from scrap silver. You'll find plenty of information to help you get the best deals on scrap silver at sites like.

  11. QUESTION:
    How much money do I get for 9 grams of scrap gold?
    Hi, ...well I have this 9 grams of gold (broken, old and ugly pieces mostly lol) and well I saw the "cashman" kinda cheesy commercials on TV ...and read about him on the newspaper and I was wondering....how much does the cashman or any dealer pays you for gram, cause I don't thing they pay you the full price of a gram...there has to be some kind of trick, because I remember back in my home country dealers like this used to pay you like 1/4 of the price per gram or something like that ...oh well I don't expect to get rich I just want to sell all this old pieces and get enough money to get a nice one or save the money...I just thought it would be a good idea to visit this cashman guy and see how much I can get from all this scrap jewels...and well even though almost all of the pieces are marked 10K and 14K there is one that only some letters and the gold is kinda yellow ..it is a ring very old but still looks nice is there a way to find out if it is made of real gold or is it gold plated
    ...and has anyone ever gone to see the cashman or any other gold buyer? Is it really a good idea to go to see him? Thank You.

    • ANSWER:
      Hi. The price varies as you said if it is 10K or 14K. The spot market dictates the price at the moment of execution of the deal. You can test any gold item by making a file cut on the item(less obviously seen spot) and placing a drop of sulfuric acid..you can buy a kit1 If the metal stay the same color...it is gold. If it foams and turns green or off color plated green means copper..white ..base metal. You can also use a rub stone to tell you the Karat of the gold..but that takes practice. you can also shop it around at a jewelers shop or coin shop...but be sure you take pictures 1st and count and weigh the product...and let them know that you have done so..or else you might end up missing some of your product. You have a little over 1/4 ounce of gold or combo...you would average out what you have to come up with your base money. Just guessing sounds like you have between .00 to 5.00 in value. you can also bring it to an auction house...like mine and we would either buy it..consign it or give you a free appraisal. tagger

  12. QUESTION:
    Scrap Gold.. How to figure value?
    How do I figure the value of scrap gold? I need to know the price per gram. Thank you!

    • ANSWER:
      It should be published in the paper in the financial section. It varies from day to day, and from country to country, of course. I sold a lot of old broken bits several months ago (many jewellers will buy it) and got about £70 (0) for it. They have to buy it at that day's official price. In the UK it will go back, I think, to the Bank of England, if bought officially like that.

  13. QUESTION:
    Scrap gold and pricing?

    I have or had a gold bracelet 9kt gold and took it to be scrapped for cash today..I went to 2 shops today and the offered me £200 then i went to the second and told them that i was offered £230 and they went an weighed man and surprise surprise there price was £230 aswell :) So ofcourse i decided to take the higher price. Apart from finding out that the rip you of so much i found that if you like within a reasonable amount of cash you can blag it...So, onto my question. How much do the likes of the scrap golf for cash adverts that you see on tv offer? are they better than a store as the store that offered me £200 pound was offering £8 per gram for 9kt..Can i get more than that? if so how?

    Thanks very much :) .

    • ANSWER:
      they will never give you a fair price for scrapping, its pretty much like pawning and most pawns are stolen crap people dont care about, if its worth any thing sell it on the internet, or some sort of yard sale, or farmers market

  14. QUESTION:
    Scrap Gold - what to expect?
    I have lots of gold I am going to scrap. A friend of mine works at the Kiosk so I'm sure I won't get completely screwed...however, what do I need to expect? I know gold is at 1400. right now which would be the base price for 24k. So, about per gram of pure gold. How much less will the 14k be than the 24k, and how much lower will the 10k be from the 14k? Obviously I'm not expecting to get the full value. I know how a business has to run. But what is a good range? 30%? 50%? Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
    The gold is separated into the different purities. Sorry for not adding before.

    • ANSWER:
      normally, u should separate the scrap into : 14k, or, 10k, or 24k. this will be more easy for u to sell it in future.
      if it is a mixture, nobody can give u a price about it.
      the best is : u look for a company who can re-fine the gold. u could send the scrap to them and they will re-fine it for u: u will get the fine gold ( or they will buy it ) and will pay them the labor!
      i used t be a jeweler in china and, this is the way what we are doing here!
      good luck!

  15. QUESTION:
    I've been working at a Pawn Broker / Check Casher for about a year now...?
    I work on salary, plus commission. The cheaper I can buy something, the greater my commission. The more I can sell something for, the greater my commission. It is a sliding scale where more I take advantage of someone, the more I make. For example, yesterday the price for scrap gold was .33 per gram, as we generally pay 1/3 the price of closing price the previous day. If we have a dramatic price change up or down, we something adjust in the middle of the day.
    If I can buy 10 grams of gold for .30, I get 5% of that, or .66. If I can get away paying less, say for 10 grams, I get 5% plus 50% of the difference, .66 plus .65.
    Lately I've really be doing well, but my conscious is getting the better of me. There's no way I'm going to give up a 0+ week job, as this is a good 0 a week more than I earned as a delivery truck driver. However, I need to balance what I do. I gave 0 worth of food to the local pet shelter today. That felt good, but an hour later, I feel guilty
    again. At work they say "it's just business, and business is good". Every other business is there for the same reason, to make money. Some are a little distasteful like my job, but am I really any different than anyone else? We all make money.
    Any suggestions on how I can balance what I do with how it makes me feel more and more often? I don't want to give up the good living I earn, as just like anyone else, I don't deserve to live in poverty, so why should I?

    • ANSWER:
      If you are feeling guilty, that should be telling you something. You don't need to ask anyone else's opinion, you have already answered your own question. What you are doing is not right. Can you live with the guilt?

  16. QUESTION:
    why is there such a difference in price between silver and gold?
    they are both precious metals yet when you look at even scrap value 9ct which is only 37.5% gold is £8-£9 per gram yet sterling silver which is 92.5% silver is only 25p-28p per gram

    why is there such a big difference

    • ANSWER:
      Each metal is priced as per its availability and cost of mining. More rare a metal more precious it will be. Take iron, available in abundance see the price and than move on to Platinum, Uranium they gets costlier simply because of low availability and enhanced cost of finding them and mining them.

  17. QUESTION:
    Troy Ounces Conversion Help Gold Refinery Question!!!!?
    I am having trouble figuring this out. Lets say I have 3 grams of 14K gold. I know that a troy oz is 31.15g and lets say today's price of Gold is 1500.00 per troy oz. The Refinery only pays 98% of a troy oz. BUT, for 14kt, only 58% is counted. If anyone has experience with Gold Scrap please, you know what I'm talking about and help me figure this out!

    • ANSWER:
      Well the reason that only 58% of the weight of 14 karat gold is counted is because it is only 58.33% of actual gold, with the rest being other metals, such as copper or silver. Pure gold is 24 karat. Therefore: 14 divided by 24 = 0.58333 = 58.33%. If the refinery actually pays 98% of the gold spot price that is a super good offer.

  18. QUESTION:
    How much would be a good price to haggle?
    I noticed a very unusual gold necklace in second hand jewellery store and I'm interested in purchasing it, especially as I know that there's another serious buyer who would like to try and melt it down.
    It's a high quality piece of jewellery 18K with a good (world renowned) name attached to it and weighs in at 142 grams (solid gold)

    I've checked around and if I was trying to buy something similar to it new from the original retailer it would cost me ,250 - ,500.
    I've calculate the scrap value of the necklace to be ,237.

    The seller is pushing that it's a "unique" piece and "vintage" therefore worth a lot more; the price set is ,500.

    There's no way that I'm paying that much for it, retail prices are inflated anyway but then to inflate it again is beyond wishful thinking. I know that the other buyer will offer a lot less than that and probably less than me as they're only interested in the gold value, not the name.
    I'm keen to haggle with this seller but this time I'm not sure what to offer. Typically I offer 50% the asking price and work from there with it usually ending up at 35% the asking price, but I know that jewelry is the special exception to the rule as the Western market always over-inflates it cripplingly.
    The seller also seems well versed in trading by weight rather than a set marked price, they've listed the weight per gram on all the items.

    What would be a good price to try haggling for?

    • ANSWER:
      You usually start by offering 50% asking price and then you get it for only 35%?! Wow, you're much better at bargaining than I am! I guess you mean 35% OFF.

      If the other buyer will pay only K for the gold, and you can get a similar item new for K AND you neither appreciate nor acknowledge the suppposed antique value, then i would offer .5K first. Then, he has to decide whether to hold out for the vintage collector.

      The relevant points are 50% new value = K. That would be what you would offer a private seller who was offering it second-hand.

    ...and has anyone ever gone to see the cashman or any other gold buyer? Is it really a good idea to go to see him? Thank You.

    • ANSWER:
      If it's full-fledged gold, you could expect to get around 0 as current gold prices are around 0 per ounce, that number could be quite less if the gold is diluted among other metals.

    • ANSWER:
      900 an oz is the price of bullion, not the price of scrap.

      The best rate I have found for selling scrap gold is at http://www.hatongardenmetals.com.

      This company is based in the centre of the jewellery tade in the UK's Hatton Garden. Not sure if they buy from the US though.

      They have a gold calculator on their website and if you gold is 14ct then at the current price it would be worth £70.52. This price would change twice a day as the gold price is fixed.

      The best way to find out if it is real gold or plated is to have it acid tested. If you can't do this yourself the best way is to take it to a local jewellery store who will test if for you.
