For the jewelry you already own

Sell, trade or reimagine.

The single earring. The broken chain. The ring that never leaves its box. There are different ways to give old jewelry a next chapter—cash, a new home or credit toward something you’ll wear.

Programs to explore

Different routes. Different terms.

Gold → store credit

Yearly Co.

Yearly Co. advertises 85% of gold value as a gift card for its in-store trade-in program. It accepts solid 10K–24K gold; US mail-in trade-ins are also available.

Consider it for:

Broken pieces, single earrings and solid gold you no longer wear.

Eligibility, costs & timing
What you receive
Yearly Co. credit, not cash. Confirm the mail-in credit calculation before shipping.
Stones & eligibility
No credit for stones. Removal may cost extra; gold-filled and plated pieces are not accepted.
Costs & timing
For mail-in, arrange and insure shipping. Evaluation may take up to a week after receipt; the credit amount is submitted for approval. Stone returns may incur a fee.

Resale & selected direct offers

The RealReal

Explore consignment, or ask whether your piece qualifies for a direct cash or trade-credit offer. Acceptance, pricing and earnings depend on the item and the program.

Consider it for:

Fine jewelry you want considered as a complete piece.

Eligibility, costs & timing
What you receive
Consignment proceeds after a sale, subject to commission and seller terms. Selected direct offers may provide cash or site credit.
Eligibility
Check the accepted jewelry and designer criteria. A submission does not guarantee acceptance or a particular price.
Costs & timing
Review commissions, markdown policies, payout timing and retrieval terms before committing. Promotional credit has separate eligibility and expiry rules.

Precious metals → cash offer

Alloy Market

A mail-in buyer that evaluates the precious-metal content and sends an offer. Its published process includes shipping and insurance; review the offer before deciding.

Consider it for:

Gold and other accepted precious-metal pieces, including broken jewelry.

Eligibility, costs & timing
What you receive
An evaluated cash offer, not a guaranteed percentage of spot value.
Shipping & returns
Check the current insurance limits and eligible-item return terms before sending anything. Its FAQ describes free returns if you decline an offer.
Costs & timing
Confirm the tested weight, purity, deductions, payment method and timing with the buyer. A gold-content quote is different from an intact-jewelry resale assessment.

Gold → store credit

Ott Family Jewelry

Its published program offers 100% of melt value for wearable gold and bullion, or 90% for scrap and broken gold, issued as a store gift card rather than cash.

Consider it for:

Wearable gold, bullion or broken gold when you want another piece from the same shop.

Eligibility, costs & timing
What you receive
Store credit. The published gift-card terms state no expiry; confirm the current offer for your items.
Stones & eligibility
Stone-set items and non-gold materials are quoted individually. Plated, filled and vermeil pieces do not qualify as solid gold.
Costs & timing
Shipping is arranged separately and can cost extra. Ask for the offer, shipping/insurance costs and decline/return terms before sending your pieces.
