How cash for gold works at our store

The process is straightforward and transparent. Nothing happens behind a closed door.

You walk in with your gold. It can be anything: a broken necklace, an old wedding band, a gold coin, a dental crown, a chain you have not worn in 10 years. It does not need to be sorted or cleaned. Bring what you have.

We test the gold at the counter using a Thermo Scientific XRF spectrometer. The machine reads the exact metal composition in under 60 seconds by bouncing X-rays off the surface of the piece. No acids, no scratches, no damage to your item. The result shows the precise karat and alloy percentages. You watch this happen from your side of the counter.

Then we weigh the piece on a digital scale that faces you. You can read the weight in grams directly off the display. No mystery, no sleight of hand.

We calculate the offer using the live gold spot price multiplied by the weight in troy ounces multiplied by the purity percentage. We tell you the exact math. You get to see the spot price we are using and how it applies to your piece.

If you accept, cash changes hands before you leave. No consignment period. No waiting for payment to process. No check in the mail. Cash.

What to bring

Gold jewelry of any kind: rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, pendants, brooches, charms. Working, broken, or damaged, all are welcome.

Gold coins: American Eagles, Maple Leafs, Krugerrands, old US gold coins ($2.50, $5, $10, $20). We pay for bullion coins near the spot price and evaluate numismatic coins for collector value.

Gold bullion bars: 1 oz through 1 kilo from any mint. PAMP Suisse, Valcambi, Perth Mint, or generic refinery bars.

Dental gold: old crowns, bridges, and dental scrap. Dental gold is typically 16K, which has solid melt value.

Scrap or broken pieces: knotted chains, single earrings, bent rings, charms without chains. All are bought for gold content.

Why we pay more than pawn shops

Pawn shops are in two businesses simultaneously: lending money against collateral and reselling goods at retail. When you sell gold to a pawn shop, they need to mark up the purchase enough to cover their retail overhead and profit margin. That means they buy at a significant discount to actual melt value.

We are not a pawn shop. We are a licensed precious metals dealer. Our entire business model is built around buying precious metals at a fair percentage of spot and selling into the wholesale metals market. We do not need to mark up your gold to sell it to a retail customer. That structural difference is why our offers are consistently stronger.

Sellers from the Route 18 corridor in East Brunswick, from Old Bridge and South Brunswick, from Piscataway and Highland Park, regularly come to us after getting quotes from pawn shops and finding our numbers better. We cannot guarantee we beat every competitor on every transaction, but the math is generally in your favor.

Local context: the Middlesex County market

East Brunswick sits at the center of Middlesex County, one of the most densely populated counties in New Jersey. The Route 18 corridor draws sellers from a wide radius. Our 111 Main St Suite 9 location is accessible from Route 18 and Route 1, with parking available.

We have operated in Middlesex County for years and have built a reputation for honest appraisals and fair prices. Over 500,000 transactions completed across our 6 New Jersey locations. We do not need to trick anyone into selling. The business works because customers leave satisfied and come back.

New Jersey law requires a valid government-issued ID for all precious metals purchases. Bring a NJ driver's license, state-issued ID, or passport. We record the transaction as required by state law and provide a detailed receipt.

Frequently asked questions

How fast do you pay?

Same day. You hand over the gold and we hand over cash in the same transaction. There is no processing period, no check that needs to clear, no wire transfer. If you accept the offer, you leave with money.

Can I negotiate the offer?

The offer is based on a transparent mathematical formula: weight times purity times a percentage of spot price. We apply the same formula to every transaction. There is not much room to negotiate the math. What you can do is bring your gold to multiple buyers and compare. We encourage it. Sellers who shop around tend to find our offers competitive or better.

What ID do you need to sell gold in NJ?

New Jersey law requires all precious metals dealers to collect a valid government-issued photo ID for every transaction. Acceptable IDs include a New Jersey driver's license, a state-issued ID card from any US state, a US passport, or a military ID. The transaction is recorded as required by NJ statute and a receipt is provided for every sale. You keep a copy.
