Buying/selling gold

henners · 03-08-2009, 05:25 AM

Hello all. I'm not sure if i'm getting paranoid or just noticing things a lot more. Today for the first time, i have noticed a commercial on TV asking people who have unwanted jewellery, gold etc to sell it to a particular shop for instant cash, by weight.

This wouldn't have rang alarm bells before, but now seeing all the comments being made by George Green and others, it sounds like it could be of some interest.

Right-o matie!!! Ive seen these commercials increasing over the past several months! If it tells me anything, its that if I did have any gold, to keep it, and buy more if at all possible! You are not paranoid, they even ask for old tooth gold!!! They seem to KNOW, what all of us should know- BUY GOLD!!!

We've had those commercials for some time in the states. They foster "gold parties" - sort of like upscale tupperware parties (plastic food storage containers) where women get together and turn in their old gold (rings from former boyfriends, etc) - they've always struck me as somewhat - distasteful.
