How Gold Scrap Payouts Work
When you take broken necklaces, estate rings, or dental gold to a jeweler, gold buyer, or pawnshop, they calculate your payout based on the current London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) / XAU spot price and the pure karat content of your item.
Refineries charge smelting and assay fees, meaning reputable brick-and-mortar jewelers typically offer between 75% and 85% of pure melt value. Beware of mail-in gold kits that pay as low as 30% to 50%.
