LONG BEACH GOLD EXCHANGE
Three useful views for a jewelry review
Use one image for the complete item, one for the hallmark or fastening, and one for damage or distinctive construction. Plain backgrounds make the edges and details easier to see.
Use indirect light and avoid filters that change metal color. If a mark is too small to focus on, say that it is unreadable instead of guessing its numbers.
Keep all three images tied to the same item description. Long Beach inquiries reach the Idaho team, which can request additional details before any handling or price agreement.

Before you go
- Can you evaluate the watch as a complete timepiece rather than as scrap gold?
- Will diamonds receive a separate line in the purchase offer?
A starting point for comparison, not an exhaustive list or a ranking. Independent businesses are not partners of this site. Their buying terms are separate from Idaho Pawn’s mail-in estimate.

CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT TO KEEP
Sell it, or keep a path to getting it back?
Sell to a buyer
You exchange the item for an agreed payment. Compare the final amount after testing and any fees. Ask a pawn shop about an outright purchase too; selling does not require taking a loan.
Estimate a mail-in sale →Ask about a local pawn loan
If you want the item back, ask a local pawnbroker whether it accepts your item as collateral. Before signing, compare the cash advanced, APR, total repayment and redemption deadline. You can lose the item if you do not redeem it under the agreement.
A buyer listed in this guide may not offer loans. Confirm services directly. Our 80% melt calculator estimates a purchase payout, not a loan advance. CFPB: pawn transaction disclosures.
Questions to take to a pawn shop
- What will I receive today, and what is the total to get my item back?
- What are the due date, any grace period, and the cost of a renewal?
- How will my item be described, stored and returned? What happens if I miss the deadline?
- What would you pay to buy it outright instead? Can I take a copy of both offers?
Before you accept an offer
Confirm the specific item, weight, purity assumptions, total payable amount, any costs, and the handling plan. Do not rely on a catalog figure as a locked offer.
Local visit or an Idaho review?
A local buyer may let you discuss testing and payment in person. Our online photo review goes to Idaho Pawn & Gold in Idaho. Compare both paths on the amount payable, testing, timing and the cost of getting your item back if you decline.
For ordinary gold or silver, our starting mail-in estimate is 80% of verified melt value. Designer jewelry, diamonds, collectible coins, Rolex watches and luxury goods such as Louis Vuitton need separate evaluation for value beyond metal content.
