For most women, when they think of the word jewelry, images of delicate gold chains and brilliant diamonds come to mind.  Realistically speaking, however, for the vast majority of the world population, these are dreams that might never come to fruition.  Fine jewelry is a luxury that few can afford, and is mostly geared to the rich upper class.  For those who are able to realize their dream of fine jewelry, it is being fulfilled with jewelry that is on the cheapest end of the spectrum.  Fortunately, in recent years fashion has embraced fake costume jewelry, leaving consumers with a whirlwind of fun, trendy, affordable jewelry options to choose from, without feeling second-best.

    Costume jewelry was first introduced in 1930 by the queen of fashion, Coco Chanel.  She promoted the use of fake pearls, poured glass, synthetic stones, and Bakelite in jewelry.  Her costume jewelry didn’t claim to give a woman an aura of wealth, but was simply there to beautify her.  The affordability of costume jewelry would allow women to closely follow trends, being able to easily replace jewelry with new styles as the trends changed.  In the past few years, costume jewelry has had a resurrection, with a dazzling array of styles from high-end designers like Marni, Vera Wang, and Kenneth Jay Lane, to affordable chain stores like H & M and Forever 21, with thousands of options in between.

    For some women, however, there are a few obstacles between them and funky fashion jewelry.  First, even fashion jewelry, especially when purchased in large quantities, can rack up quite a bill.  Second, many women feel foolish abandoning old, outdated fine jewelry they may have inherited or saved up for, in lieu of an imitation.  Fortunately, there is an easy solution to both of these problems.  Part of the reason for the explosion of the fashion jewelry market is the sharp increase in gold prices.  Due to the weak economy, gold has peaked at an all-time high.  Just as fine jewelry has become entirely unaffordable, old jewelry that people own but don’t use because it’s outdated has become highly valuable.

    The simple solution is to sell gold for cash.  Selling old gold to an honest, reputable gold buyer can result in a huge wad of cash in exchange for old jewelry that was collecting dust.  At Captain Cash for Gold.com, we make it simple.  Simply visit our website and request a free CashPak.  When you receive your CashPak in the mail, simply place old jewelry in the insured envelope and mail it back to us.  We will give you the highest price quote for your gold anywhere, and payment can be made by check, wire transfer, or PayPal.  We offer a 12 day hassle-free return policy, and if you desire, your gold is returned for free.  Customers are astounded at the value of their old unworn jewelry.
