Condition of Gold
Broken Gold Jewelry
We buy damaged gold jewelry
A broken clasp or damaged setting does not automatically eliminate the value of the gold.
Mismatched and Incomplete Jewelry
You do not need to have a complete pair or complete jewelry set.
Old and Unwanted Gold
We also evaluate gold pieces that are perfectly intact but that you simply no longer want.
Gold in Different Karats
We purchase gold across common purity levels.
Do not worry if several different karats are mixed together. Our specialists can evaluate the items individually.
HOW SCRAP GOLD IS VALUED
When you sell scrap gold, the original retail price is usually not the most important number.
Scrap gold is primarily evaluated according to the amount of actual gold contained in the item.
Our evaluation considers several factors.
Step 1: Gold Identification
First, we determine whether the item contains gold and examine any available karat markings or hallmarks.
Common markings may include 10K, 14K, 18K, 22K, 24K or equivalent fineness marks.
A missing or worn-out stamp does not necessarily mean an item has no gold value.
Step 2: Purity Testing
The karat tells us approximately how much pure gold is contained in the alloy.
For example:
- 10K gold contains approximately 41.7% pure gold
- 14K gold contains approximately 58.3% pure gold
- 18K gold contains approximately 75% pure gold
- 24K represents very high-purity gold
Because purity directly affects the amount of gold contained in an item, two pieces with the same weight can have significantly different values.
Step 3: Accurate Weight
Your gold is weighed to determine how much material is present.
Weight and purity work together when determining the underlying gold value.
A heavy 14K bracelet, for example, contains more pure gold than a much lighter 14K piece.
Step 4: Current Gold Market
Gold prices change over time.
We consider current market conditions when calculating an offer rather than relying on an old or fixed gold price.
Step 5: Other Valuable Components
Some gold jewelry contains diamonds, gemstones, or components that may have value beyond the gold itself.
When applicable, these can be considered separately rather than automatically treating the entire piece only as scrap metal.
Step 6: Your Offer
After the evaluation, you receive an offer with no obligation to accept it.
If you are comfortable with the offer, complete the sale and receive payment through your preferred available payment method.

More About Selling Scrap Gold
Where can I sell scrap gold near me?
If you are in Austin or the surrounding Central Texas area, you can sell scrap gold at ATX Jewelry Exchange. We provide private, appointment-only gold evaluations at our Austin office.
Where to sell scrap gold near me for cash?
Choose a local precious-metal or jewelry buyer that can evaluate the gold in person, test its purity, weigh it accurately, and explain the offer before you sell.
ATX Jewelry Exchange provides in-person scrap gold evaluations in Austin followed by an immediate offer.
What is the best place to sell scrap gold?
The best place to sell scrap gold is generally a reputable buyer experienced with precious metals who uses transparent testing and current market information.
You should know what is being tested, how purity affects value, and what you will receive before completing the transaction.
Where can I sell scrap gold?
Scrap gold can be sold through local gold buyers, jewelry buyers, precious-metal dealers, and some online mail-in services.
For sellers who prefer to see their gold evaluated in person, a local buyer allows you to remain with your items during the appraisal and decide whether to accept the offer before completing the transaction.
How much is scrap gold worth?
Scrap gold value depends primarily on:
- Gold purity
- Total gold weight
- Current gold market price
- Type of item
- Presence of other valuable materials
- Potential resale value beyond scrap
Because these variables are different for every collection, an in-person evaluation is the easiest way to determine what your specific gold is worth.
Can I sell broken gold jewelry?
Yes. Broken gold can still have value because the underlying precious metal does not stop being gold when a necklace snaps or a ring bends.
Broken chains, damaged bracelets, single earrings, bent rings, and similar pieces can all be evaluated.
Can I sell scrap gold without a hallmark?
Potentially, yes.
A stamp is useful but it is not the only way to determine whether an item contains gold. Gold pieces can be professionally tested to determine their purity even when a hallmark is missing, worn, or difficult to read.
Can I sell a single gold earring?
Yes. Scrap gold does not need to be part of a complete pair or jewelry set.
A single gold earring still contains gold and can be evaluated according to its purity, weight, and other characteristics.
Do you buy white gold as scrap?
Yes. Gold content is determined by purity rather than simply by color.
White, yellow, and rose gold are made using different alloy combinations, but each can contain valuable gold depending on its karat.

Reviews
Wonderful experience selling jewelry here! Amazing pricing and excellent service. Highly recommend!

5-Star Review for Ariel
I recently sold some of my broken white gold jewelry to Ariel, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. He took the time to carefully evaluate each and every piece, meticulously identifying whether it was 10K, 14K, or 18K white gold. Instead of giving a bulk offer, he provided a detailed price for each item, which showed his transparency and honesty in the process
Ariel’s service is truly top-notch—professional, courteous, and thorough. The only downside is realizing how little scrap gold is worth, but that’s just the reality of the market.
Thanks to Ariel, the process was smooth, stress-free, and trustworthy.
I highly recommend his services if you’re looking to sell gold!
- Hannah Ngo
Such an absolute delight it was doing business with Ariel and ATX Jewelry Exchange! It was because of all the fantastic reviews that brought me to them in the first place.
Through my own wonderful experience today of selling some jewelry there I now join the chorus of rave reviews! Honest pricing, knowledgeable and friendly. It's all true! Thank you Ariel!
