Most people have experienced wearing a necklace and accidentally breaking it. Whether it was a curious baby, playful puppy, or sheer clumsiness, the broken chain was likely tucked away with the intention of having it repaired.
Chances are, years later, that same necklace is still sitting in a drawer, still broken. There may even be a special jewelry box for broken items that need a new clasp or links removed. Changing fashion trends may also result in forgotten gold pieces that can be turned into cash.
The new year is a great time to go through jewelry boxes and find items still in need of repair. No matter what kind of damaged jewelry it is, you can sell your old gold.
