How and Where to Sell Gold Rings
What you need to know, and why we’re the right choice to sell a class ring, engagement ring, or other gold jewelry.
Where Can I Sell My Jewelry Near Me?
Wondering where to sell gold rings or jewelry near you? One of the most traditional places to sell your jewelry is to an in-person gold buyer like a jeweler or pawn shop. At these kinds of brick-and-mortar stores, buyers will assess the value of your ring and offer you a portion of the total value.
Another option is to sell your ring to an online gold buyer. Instead of visiting a store, you simply ship your ring to the buyer. At Cash for Gold USA, we can offer you the fair market value for your ring.
What Do You Do With Gold Rings?
Often times people have gold jewelry in their possession they haven’t worn for years. Sometimes these pieces are family heirlooms, other times their item(s) in need of repair. Repairing broken gold jewelry can be cost prohibitive, especially when trying to restore the original appearance. It’s typically much easier to sell your broken gold necklaces or chains or other broken gold jewelry in exchange for valuable funds that could be put towards a new piece of jewelry.
Why Should I Sell A Ring Online Instead Of In Person?
Online selling is an easy way to eradicate the hassle of going to local stores in search of a good offer and payout. Online jewelry buyers provide a safe haven and secure process to offer the fair market pricing according to current market rates. There are few things that make online jewelry selling a better process than traditional methods.
First, online buyers don’t have the overhead costs of running a store, allowing them to pay more aggressively for your items. You can also avoid time and effort spent going to the store and waiting in line; everything can be done from the comfort of your home in just a few minutes. Online buyers also welcome broken or flawed rings, allowing you to clean out your jewelry box and receive funds when you need them most.
How Is the Value Of Gold Determined?
The actual value of a gold ring varies depending on its features and the buyer. However, the melt value of the material can be determined using the weight, purity and current market price for gold.
Per Kitco, gold closed at $2,656.40 per ounce on September 25, 2024.

The most common purities of gold are:
24k: 99.9% gold
22k: 91.7% gold
18k: 75% gold
14k: 58.3% gold
10k: 41.7% gold
8k: 33.3% gold
The market price always refers to gold when it’s at 24k purity. For lower purity gold, multiply the market price by the percent purity as a decimal. For example, if, the current market price for gold is about $62.05 per gram, the approximate value of 14k gold, therefore, is $62.05 x 0.583 = $36.18 per gram.

The answer to “how much is my ring worth” depends on specific features and the buyer’s interests. It’s important to understand the lingo and industry terms of gold when you sell your gold ring. What is its gold purity? How much does it weigh? Does it have gemstones? Are there other aesthetic elements that make it desirable as a ring? Does the buyer plan to resell it as a ring or buy it for materials?
When you are ready to sell broken gold jewelry, you should search for answers to these questions to get the best experience and have clear expectations of the evaluation process.
The only way to know for sure how much a particular buyer will offer you is to have them actually appraise it. At Cash for Gold USA, we respond with our best offer within 24 hours of receipt. We also offer an online gold calculator to educate customers on the melt value of their material.
How Much Is My Gold Diamond Ring Worth?
Knowing the exact worth of your gold diamond ring requires knowledge and research. A gold diamond ring consists of a few precious parts that support the overall ring structure. The most important things that contribute to the worth of a gold diamond ring are:
The size and quality and condition of the diamond(s)
The purity of the gold
Other non-gold features of the ring play a role in its value. In addition to the value of the gold band and setting, the amount you can get for a gold diamond ring will include the value of the gemstones. In the case of diamonds, this will be determined based on the stone’s cut, clarity, color, and carat weight (the “4 Cs”).
Buyer intention will also play a role here. If the buyer is interested in re-selling your ring as a piece of jewelry, the amount you’re offered will be strongly driven by the quality and desirability of the ring and its diamonds as a jewelry piece. If the ring is broken or the diamonds are badly flawed, they may not agree to buy your ring at all.
How Much Is a 10k Gold Ring Worth?
The answer to this question depends on the features of the ring and the intent of the buyer. However, knowing that it is made from 10k gold can give us some idea of the ring’s basic material value.
Here’s how you might estimate the value of a simple 10k gold band:
Find the current market price for gold and multiply it by the purity of the gold. As of January 26th 2023, the market value for pure gold is about $62.05 per gram. Because the purity for 10k gold is roughly 40%, the price per gram for 10k gold can be calculated as $62.05 x 0.40 = $24.82.
Multiply this price by the item’s weight (using the same units). If the ring is 4 grams, for example, its value is calculated as $24.82 x 4 = $99.28.
Remember that this is only a rough estimate for the gold itself and doesn’t necessarily represent the offer you will get from a particular buyer.
