Getting Started

The following information is of interest to you if you are selling gold jewelry in Phoenix.   Your goal is to be able to produce a good and honest price. It is Important to do your homework before you approach a buyer. Some research items to recognize include: how long has the jeweler been in business, is there a certified gemologist on site, and most importantly what is the artist's reputation in the community.  At Ralph Mueller, our long standing reputation speaks for itself.  

Selling Items Back  

Once you have found a reputable jeweler, the process of selling gold jewelry in Phoenix should also involve additional tests such as, acid testing gold to determine the purity of the metal, having the gold weighed for pricing accuracy, and having a certified gemologist examine any precious stones for overall value.    If a jeweler just offers you a price without testing, it would be in your best interest to look elsewhere.  At Ralph Mueller, we of course take all possible measures to ensure you're getting a fair price.
