When you need money quickly pawning gold chains, bracelets or watches can be a smart solution. At Wild Side Pawn & Jewelry, we help customers throughout the Treasure Coast unlock the value of their jewelry with accurate appraisals, competitive offers and immediate payment. Whether you want to pawn vintage heirlooms, hard to find designer pieces or everyday wear items – understanding how the process works will help you get the best possible return.
How Pawning Works
When you pawn an item, you’re essentially using it as collateral for a short-term loan. You bring in a piece of gold jewelry, and our team evaluates it based on purity, weight, condition, brand and current market demand. Once the appraisal is complete, we offer a loan amount that reflects the item’s value. You’ll receive cash on the spot, and your jewelry will be safely stored until you’re ready to pay back the loan and reclaim it. Of course, if don’t want to get the item back, you can also choose to sell it outright.
What Determines the Value of Gold Jewelry
Gold chains and bracelets are often priced according to their weight and karat rating, such as 10K, 14K or 18K. Higher karat gold jewelry has a higher percentage of pure gold content – which means more value. Style and craftsmanship also play a role. For example, designer pieces are generally valued higher than items that are mass produced, and solid link chains are worth more than hollow ones. We use up-to-date market data to ensure our offers reflect current gold prices and demand, so that you can be confident that you’re getting a fair deal.
Watches: Brand and Condition Matter
When it comes to watches, brand recognition and condition have a major impact. Well-known names like Rolex, Hublot, Omega, TAG Heuer and Breitling tend to hold value extremely well. Even if your watch is no longer running, it may still have considerable worth based on its materials and collectability. Our experts check the make, model, movement and authenticity of each timepiece before determining its value. We’re happy to explain how we arrive at our offer so there are no surprises.
