    Ok so I have some gold chains, various rings, engagment ring ect im wanting to sell. I know my small country town pawn stores will lowball me. So wheres the best place to sell these? I dont know the exact ct of some of the gold or the rings with diamonds or stones. Was thinking of listing here but would be hard not knowing the specs. Can anyone help?

    Central VIC, ive been sitting on them for quite a few years, need the cash, have others that are sentimental but still may sell. I have no idea of the value of the ones with stones or no markings. Should I expect scrap price on the chain and rings with no stones or would I get more?

    I'm no jeweler but I worked for michael hill and it looks like the second rings stone is a garnet and the 4th ring looks like jade. Garnet isn't a high priced stone and by memory the jade isn't in small amounts.

    Hope that helps
