When selling old gold, one of the first questions customers ask is, "Why do different gold buyers offer different prices for the same jewellery?" Many people compare offers from multiple shops and are often surprised to find that the valuation can vary. This naturally leads to another important question: how can one gold buyer offer a higher value than another?
