You may or may not have seen the news recently which reported that the price of gold has hit new record highs. Whilst this is more concerned with the gold bars governments use for complicated economic transactions it does show one thing: gold is always in demand.
There are many other precious metals which are extremely popular in the jewellery trade, with silver and platinum right up there as well, but gold is and always will be a classic in every sense of the word. It is versatile, goes with so many looks, can be made into endless pieces and is a great investment.
Maintaining Value
By purchasing, for example, a gold necklace, not only will you get to wear it year after year after year, but once you decide on a change, you can actually recoup some of your investment by selling it for cash. What other similarly sized purchase would retain a percentage of its value a decade or so after you first bought it?
Here at EK Jewellers we are always busy with our buy gold service. Think of it as an investment. Buy something you like, then a few years down the line get something back for it to spend on another more modern item, or anything else you please. Now what other purchase would allow you to do this?
