If you don't buy gold in a chain store at the time of exchange, you need to melt the old gold jewelry and calculate it according to the weight of the melted gold.

Matters needing attention in changing gold style
1. Pay attention to whether the new gold ornaments are pure gold when exchanging old ones for new ones. Some unscrupulous merchants will use 18K gold instead of pure gold to deceive consumers. The price per gram of 999 gold fluctuates in 270 yuan, while 18K gold is an alloy jewelry with a gold content of only 75%, and the price is around 170 yuan. There is a big difference between the two.
2. Trade in the old for the new, and don't lose money on the processing fee. When we take our own gold ornaments to the jewelry store to buy other styles of gold ornaments, we can generally exchange grams of gold at the same price, that is to say, you can buy gold ornaments of the same weight with how many grams of gold ornaments you have.
