New Twist in Precious Metal Analysis

CL Assay Service lets you access their sophisticated analysis equipment from your living room to make sure you get the highest prices.

Today’s high prices for gold and other precious metals have many people scrounging through drawers and jewelry boxes seeking treasure in broken and unused pieces of jewelry. Almost immediately the question comes up, “How do I know how much this stuff is worth?” And today, well into the gold rush, we have all heard about some of the cash-for-gold scams. What about all the jewelry stores with the “We Buy Gold” signs and adds in the newspaper? There’s even some guy on the corner waving a “Highest Prices for Gold” sign.
We are living in the 21st century, surely technology has an answer. Well it does, only you need to go to a laboratory to find it. Unfortunately, there isn’t a lab on every corner. That’s what makes the service offered by a lab in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida so interesting.
The lab is called CL Assay Service and they call the process an OnLine Assay. They haven’t actually figured out how to analyze your gold by remote control—you still have to get it to them—but the process is easy, safe, and insured. You begin by calling or going on their website and requesting an insured mailer. Once they have the box with the jewelry or coins you have sent them, they contact you and at a convenient time, you sit in front of your PC, and watch them open your box and place it into their high-tech analysis equipment. It is fun to watch. You see the readouts from their instruments on your screen the same as they do and you get to talk to the tech doing the work the whole time. The display clearly shows the gold or other precious metal content of each item. That feeds into another program that calculates the value of your item based on that day’s spot gold price on the world market.
CL Assay Service will then offer to buy your items at the value indicated by their instruments, or you can get your stuff back but you get to keep the analysis reports, which CL Assay will email to you. The whole process is interactive; you get to decide what to do with each item in real time. It’s much more fun than sending your stuff off in the mail and then biting your fingernails hoping to get a nice check back. And there is no disappointment because you were part of the process.
