Why Local Sellers Choose AD Jewelry

Many of our clients are people who value not only the price but also the simplicity of the transaction process. We make the purchasing process one where selling gold does not feel like simply "pawning something," but rather we create an atmosphere similar to the service in a good jewelry store.

  • Instant payout — cash on the same day. You come in, find out the price, and leave with cash or a check — no waiting.
  • Accurate testing — XRF + acid test. We use modern equipment (X-ray fluorescence analyzer) and, if necessary, confirm with an acid test to determine the actual purity.
  • Transparent pricing. We show the calculation table: purity - net weight - current gold spot price. There are no hidden fees.
  • Friendly, no-pressure service. Our specialists do not rush or "push" you; you decide for yourself whether to sell.
  • Private counter. The appraisal takes place at a separate counter, so the process remains confidential.
  • Experience. Over ten years of working with individuals and collectors from Highland Park, Deerfield, Northbrook, and other areas.

 

What We Buy

We accept almost anything that contains gold. Even if an item does not look like "jewelry," it may have value.

  • Rings, chains, bracelets, earrings — new, old, damaged.
  • Broken / mismatched pieces. Single earrings, worn clasps, "pieces" of chains.
  • Scrap gold. Scrap jewelry, repair remnants, fragments.
  • Gold coins and bullion. Investment coins, collectible coins, bars of various weights.
  • Watches with gold cases or elements. We determine the gold content in watches and pay for the actual metal.
  • Items with stones. Stones are evaluated separately — we carefully appraise or remove them to calculate the net weight of the gold.

Even if you are not sure, bring it in. Gold appraisal is free and without obligation.

 

How It Works

We have developed the process to be as clear as possible for a regular customer.

  1. Step 1 – Bring your items (ID required). Bring your jewelry and a government-issued ID with you. This is a requirement of Illinois state law.
  2. Step 2 – Testing & weight. Our specialist examines the item, determines the purity using XRF, confirms with an acid test if necessary, and weighs the net weight. All actions are done openly — you see the scale display and the analysis results. There is no obligation to sell after the appraisal.
  3. Step 3 – Same-day payout. Agree? You receive payment right there — in cash or by check. The final amount is based on the purity, net weight, and the current gold spot price. For coins and bars, condition and rarity may be taken into account.

What Affects Your Payout

Several factors directly influence the final amount you receive.

  • Karat purity. The purity (24K, 18K, 14K, etc.) determines the proportion of pure gold.
  • Total (net) weight. The weight of the gold is calculated without accounting for stones and other materials.
  • Stones/removal. Stones are evaluated separately; you should not remove them yourself.
  • Market (spot) price. The price of gold on the world market changes daily; we use the current quote at the time of the transaction.

If you need to appraise the value of a chain decorated with stones, do not remove the stones — this will make the appraisal more accurate and prevent damage to the item.
