Dang! What kind of jewelry did you sell off?

10k & 14k gold items...some chains/necklaces, a few rings, a bracelet & 2 charms. Had about 36.3 pwt (didn't break it out by 10k or 14k though). Then I had a WHOLE bunch of silver 102.2 pwt...but that doesn't pay a whole lot, but it was better than sitting in my dresser!!:rotfl:

These were items I knew I wasn't going to wear again. Only 2 items were "broken" rest were completely in tact....I just have this thing...I LOVE my birthstone & well, I've purchased many an item for MYSELF & I figured, might as well cash in while the price of gold is still pretty high!! I did NOT part w/items that people gave me...like my class ring, my confirmation ring & the first ring Steve ever gave me. Even if I'll never wear them again, they still have some meaning to me.


OMG!!! That was wonderful!:)
Heck yeah...especially for items that were just sitting there!!

They did quote me over $600 last night over the phone, but I figured my weights were a little off because the stones were still in them. I'm MORE than pleased w/my increase in Disneyfundage though!!:mickey:

Good for you Jen....I have been thinking about doing this as well, but I was leary of it. Glad to hear from someone I 'know' that it is legit.

oh here is my happy dance for you! :banana:

Wow Jen, that's great!! I've been considering doing that too but I've been kind of chicken. I don't really have very much so I don't know if it's worth it. I mostly have rings. Most are 10k, but I have one 18k one that is fairly heavy. Who did you send it to?

That's awesome Jen. I sent some stuff in to Broken Gold awhile ago, but I only got like $9 or $10. That's so cool that you got so much :cooldance::cooldance::cooldance:

Wow Jen!! That's amazing. Unfortunately, I've never been one into buying much jewelry, but this sure makes me wish I had been over the years. I did the SR offer a while back and did gather up what little I did have that I was willing to part with - but it was nowhere near $500. :)

That's super! :cooldance:

Congrats on adding to your Disney fund. I gathered up some scrap gold a few weeks ago for the same reason. Got $110 for just some broken chains and earrings. Glad I saved them for all these years. I'm new to SR and am looking forward to saving up points for a Disney GC for my Dec. 08 trip. (Unless the price of gas kills my trip).
