cash for gold

[gingernut]

Has anyone sold gold via one of the "Cash for Gold" type companies that advertise on TV?
If so would you recommend it?
Also does anyone know of anywhere locally that buys gold?
Cheers

I understand 'Which' have had a look into this and said not to touch any of them. Instead go to a reputable Jeweller where you will get a better price, and
a fairer deal.
Try to get a copy of the Which Report , I think you will find out more.
Good Luck.

If you sell your gold i dont think you will get the going rate more a lower price so then they can sell the gold for the going price to make profit?
