The Process

Simple. Fast. Completely Transparent.

From the moment you walk through our door, you're in control. Every step is designed to give you accurate information and a fair outcome β€” no pressure, no obligation.

1

Bring In Your Items β€” or Chat First

Walk into either South Florida location during business hours β€” no appointment needed. Or use our AI assistant to get a preliminary estimate before you arrive. We're transparent about expectations from the very start.

2

Professional Testing, Done in Front of You

Every item is tested using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis and fire assay β€” the same equipment used by commercial refineries. You get live assay results every single time. We show you exact karat, purity, and weight. No acids, no guesses, no black boxes.

3

Receive a Fair, Live Market-Based Offer

Our offers are calculated against the live spot price at the moment of your visit. We apply our published payout percentages (80–98% of melt value) and show you the complete math: Spot Γ— Purity Γ— Payout %. We will beat any legitimate written offer β€” period.

Accept β€” and Get Paid Immediately

There is absolutely no obligation to sell. If you accept, payment is made the same day via certified check or bank wire transfer. Transactions up to $1 million are completed in a single appointment β€” funds settled before you leave.

5

That's It β€” You're Done

Most transactions take under 30 minutes from walk-in to payment. Walk in with your gold, walk out with money. That's the SYG USA promise β€” unchanged since 2004.

Market Reality

What Other Buyers Are Actually Paying

Most people don't realize how much they're leaving on the table. The difference between a pawn shop and SYG USA on a 50-gram lot of 14K jewelry can be over $1,500 β€” money you're quietly handing away.

Our Story

Twenty Years Building Trust in South Florida

SYG USA Hollywood, FL Storefront
2004Founded
$1B+Purchased
100K+Transactions
100%eBay Feedback

Sell Your Gold USA was founded in Hollywood, Florida in 2004 by Luke Corona β€” built on the belief that every seller deserves honest evaluations, fair pricing, and respectful service regardless of what they're bringing in or why they're selling it.

What started as a modest local operation has grown into one of South Florida's most established precious metals companies, with over $1 billion in purchases and more than 100,000 completed transactions across two decades. We've helped families liquidate estate jewelry through difficult moments, assisted investors in repositioning portfolios, and guided thousands of first-time sellers who simply needed someone trustworthy to tell them what their jewelry was actually worth.

"Behind every transaction is a personal story. My job is to make sure that when someone walks through our door β€” often in a difficult moment β€” they leave knowing they were treated with integrity, and that they got the best possible outcome."
β€” Luke Corona, Founder & Owner, Sell Your Gold USA

Unlike national chains or pawn shops, our operations are entirely vertically integrated and locally based. We design, cast, manufacture, refine, and test all metals in-house. When you sell us your gold, it doesn't go to a third-party broker in another state β€” it stays right here in Broward County.

Today, SYG USA operates two South Florida locations β€” our original Hollywood, FL headquarters and our Fort Lauderdale Florida Intervault location (a trusted Broward institution since 1983). Our team brings over 50 years of combined expertise in precious metals trading, refining, jewelry manufacturing, and diamond grading.

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know

Our pricing is fully formula-based: Spot Price Γ— Metal Purity Γ— Payout Percentage. We show you the live spot price, the test result, and walk through every calculation β€” and you're welcome to check the current gold spot price on your own phone in real time. We back all of this with a written price-beat guarantee: bring us any legitimate written offer from a licensed buyer and we will beat it, no questions asked.
14K gold is 58.5% pure. At current spot prices, 10 grams of 14K has a melt value of approximately $850–$950. At our standard payout rates (80–98% for that weight range), you'd receive $680–$930 β€” significantly more than any pawn shop. Our AI assistant can calculate an estimate using today's live price β€” to help get you situated before your visit to one of our two locations. Prices provided by our AI assistant are NOT final offers or binding in any way.
No appointment needed at any location during regular business hours (Monday–Friday, 10:00 AM – 8:00 PM). Simply walk in. For very large transactions β€” particularly those over $50,000 at our Intervault location β€” calling ahead is appreciated so the right team members are available for you.
Same day β€” always. If you accept our offer, you leave with your payment before you walk out. We pay via certified check or same-day bank wire transfer. Bank wires are processed until 4:00 PM EST β€” if your visit is after 4:00 PM, we'll schedule the wire for the following business day. Certified checks are available anytime. We handle transactions up to $1 million in a single appointment.
You are never obligated to sell. If you decline our offer, you take your items and leave β€” no charge for the evaluation, no hard feelings. Many customers come to us first just for an honest benchmark, then return when they realize our rates genuinely beat every other buyer in Broward County.
We use X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis and fire assay β€” the same equipment used by professional refineries. These tests give an exact reading of your metal's elemental composition, karat, and purity without damaging your piece. All testing is done in front of you. We do not use acid tests or visual estimates.
Yes. We purchase silver in all forms (scrap, sterling, bullion), diamonds (loose and in jewelry, graded on-site), platinum, and palladium. Our coin desk handles gold and silver coins including rare collectibles. If it contains precious metal or gemstones, we want to see it.
Completely. Both locations handle all transactions with full discretion and professional-grade physical security. Your personal data is never shared with third parties. Our Intervault location offers additional privacy measures including private transaction rooms for high-value or sensitive transactions.
With gold near all-time highs, now is genuinely one of the better windows to sell in recent history. That said, we always recommend selling when you need the liquidity rather than trying to time the market. Come in, get an accurate evaluation, and make your decision with full information. The appraisal is free and there's zero obligation to sell.
Yes. As a licensed secondhand dealer in the State of Florida, we are required by law to report all transactions to local law enforcement authorities per Florida Statute Chapter 538 β€” the Secondhand Dealer Act. This includes recording detailed descriptions of all goods purchased, seller identification, and submitting transaction records within 24 hours. We do this to ensure the security and legitimacy of all goods and services purchased, and to help verify that items are not stolen property. This mandate protects both our customers and the community.
