Why choose second-hand gold jewelry?

The Jewelry in gold are accessories that can be worn for all occasions and which can be enjoyed every day. They can also be a good investment or diversification of one's assets, because the'or is a precious material that increases in value over time.

There are many reasons to go for second-hand gold jewelry. Here are some of the main ones:

• The profitability. My used gold jewelry is generally sold at much lower prices than new gold jewelry. This can be explained by several factors, notably by competition between second-hand sellers and the fact that second-hand jewelry is perceived as having a lower value because it has already been worn, and more objectively because the manufacturing cost has in some way already been paid for the first time and is no longer included in the calculation of the cost of the vintage jewelry.
• Scarcity. Used gold jewelry may be rarer than new jewelry. Indeed, new jewelry is now often mass-produced, while second-hand jewelry can be unique pieces or vintage models, or even collections that are no longer produced.
• Originality. They can be more original than new jewelry. Indeed, second-hand jewelry can be collector's items or unique creations. They can be marked by an era and for which we no longer find an equivalent design, like Tank rings or Belle Epoque necklaces. Finally by nature, each second-hand piece of gold jewelry is unique in its size, condition, history and price.
• The story. Second-hand jewelry may have been passed down from generation to generation or purchased on a special occasion.

In addition to these benefits it can also be a good option for the environment. Indeed, gold mining is a polluting activity. By purchasing second-hand gold jewelry, you are helping to reduce the environmental impact of the jewelry industry.
