Tips for selling gold in Halifax
Weigh your items at home on a kitchen scale and check the karat stamp (10K, 14K, 18K) before visiting a buyer. With the table above you can estimate a fair offer in advance — a quote far below 70% of melt is worth walking away from.
In Halifax you will find three kinds of buyers: pawnshops (fast but usually the lowest payouts), bank and bullion-dealer buyback desks (better rates, may require an account or appointment), and dedicated precious-metals buyers (often the best rates for larger lots). Always get two or three quotes.
