All About Consignment

If you have jewelry to sell, consignment may be the way to go.  

Rock N Gold Creations provides a market for buying and selling your jewelry held on consignment. Our GIA certified jeweler, Simon Mattar, inspects your items and provides accurate descriptions of their quality and condition. He’s an expert resource who can answer all your questions about estate jewelry, whether buying, selling, or just to learn more.

Our showroom provides a private and secure location to inspect, value, and consign your precious items for sale. You will receive payment immediately when the sale is completed.

How does it work?

The whole process begins with a conversation about your piece and its position in the marketplace. Is there hot demand for it right now? Is it auction quality? What about its sentimental value to you?

The price for an item is established with you before we accept it for sale, as well as the commission, which is due when the item is sold. This price takes into consideration the item’s quality, condition, and background, and is based on the current wholesale market price for the item. The price will usually be less than retail, but more than trade. There is no listing fee.

Rock N Gold Creations has the knowledge and experience of gemology, the art of jewelry, and how to appraise to make an accurate valuation. Your item is held in our secure facility for an agreed consignment term, at a set price and commission percentage, payable to you as soon as it is sold.

How long does selling take? 

The typical consignment period is six to twelve months. If you wish to sell immediately, Rock N Gold Creations will make you an offer and you can leave with payment in hand.

When Should I Sell My Gold?

A client came in to the showroom recently and said, “I sold you some of my gold jewelry a few years ago and it was at $800 an ounce. Today I see from your website that it’s at $1,700 an ounce. Boy, I wish I’d waited!” You might think she was right to wish she had held on to her gold a little longer. But we told her, “If you think you got the best deal on your gold at that time, and the cash you received was what you needed, you shouldn’t feel bad that you didn’t hold on to it longer.”

It’s true that gold prices are high right now, up almost 600 percent over the past ten years. The uncertain economy has a lot to do with that. Clients ask us whether prices will rise even higher. We post the most current precious metals prices right on our website, but we don’t have a crystal ball or a time travel machine. We can’t tell you if gold will be worth more or less in a few months or next year. But if you need money now and you have unwanted gold jewelry to sell, we guarantee you the best price you can get in the current market, and you’ll have the cash in hand you need. That’s a pretty good deal.

Is It Time to Sell Your Gold?

The faltering economy is not getting back on its feet as fast as we would all like, but there is a silver (or gold) lining to this continued weakness in the world markets. If you own gold or gold jewelry you no longer want, means money in your pocket, as the price of gold continues to rise.

Through our subsidiary, San Diego Gold Sellers, Rock N Gold Creations wants to buy your unwanted gold items at the best price you can find. We post current precious metals market prices on our website because we are scrupulously honest about what we are paying for gold, silver, platinum, and other precious metals at all times.
