<\/span>– Purity (karat level, like 10k, 14k, 18k, etc.) <\/span>
<\/span>– Weight (measured in grams) <\/span>

<\/span>
<\/span>– Magnet Test: Gold is not magnetic, so if your item sticks to a strong magnet, it\u2019s likely not real gold. (But if it doesn\u2019t stick, that doesn\u2019t guarantee it\u2019s real either \u2014 many other metals aren\u2019t magnetic.)<\/span>
<\/span>– Look for stamps: Common gold hallmarks include 10k, 14k, 18k, or 24k, as well as 417, 585, or 999. These markings can help you identify purity, but they\u2019re not always accurate, especially on older or imported items.<\/span>

<\/span>
<\/span>Here\u2019s how we can tell the difference:<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>– Scratch testing reveals what\u2019s beneath the surface. <\/span>
<\/span>– X-ray fluorescence (XRF) can measure purity without damaging the item. <\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>Our staff will explain the results clearly, so you know exactly what you have \u2014 and whether it\u2019s worth selling.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/span>
<\/span>– For diamonds<\/a>, we assess clarity, cut, carat, and colour, and make an offer based on market demand. <\/span>
<\/span>– For gemstones<\/a>, we\u2019ll evaluate them case by case. Some may add value to your payout, while others (like small accent stones or non-precious gems) may not significantly affect the offer.<\/span>
<\/span>
