Should I sell my jewellery to pay off debts? You don’t have to…

Loans against jewellery may be a better alternative

How does that work?  Well, instead of selling your jewellery, you can get loans against jewellery from a collateral lender, (a collateral lender is just another fancy name for a pawnbroker). The advantage is that instead of parting with your jewellery forever, you only part with it for a short term. The collateral loan is most often a short term loan that should be paid back within 6 months.  Once you have paid off the short term, collateral loan, the jewellery is immediately handed back to you by the pawnbroker.

A collateral loan is now available to UK residents online

The fastest, easiest and most discreet way of getting loans against jewellery from a pawnbroker is to go online.  Borro.com is a leading provider of loans against jewellery, and the world’s first online provider of loans that let’s you use jewellery as collateral.  We can guarantee the highest valuation for all types of jewellery, including rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, mens jewellery (e.g. gold chains) or mens accessories (e.g. gold or silver cuff links).

Borrowing money is easy and discreet

CBS evening news in the United States recently aired a program about ‘collateral lenders’ in Beverly Hills. 

It seems that even the rich and famous turn to the local pawn broker from time to time for a little financial help.  Affluent people visit this Beverly Hills pawnshop to get loans on high-ticket (high-end) luxury items.

Even the rich and famous are in a crunch!

Where to sell gold jewellery

If you want to sell gold jewellery, there are many online websites that will take your old gold, gold coins or gold jewellery.  But if you are looking to raise short-term cash, then Borro.com may have a better solution.

Instead of having to sell gold jewellery that you may want to keep, you can pawn gold jewellery at Borro.com.  Borro provides fast, cheap and easy pawn loans online secured by gold jewellery, watches, art, antiques and many other personal valuables.  So, if you are looking to sell gold jewellery in order to solve a cash flow problem, you don’t have to sell gold jewellery to do this at Borro.com.  

In order to avoid having to sell gold jewellery, all you do is apply for an online pawn loan at Borro.com.  Borro will review the description of your gold jewellery, and tell you how much cash you can raise by way of an online pawn loan.  When you have paid off the loan, you get your gold jewellery back, which is a much better solution than having to sell gold jewellery in the first place, in order to raise the money.  Don’t sell gold jewellery when you can pawn gold jewellery.  If you sell gold jewellery, you will never see it again, but if you pawn gold jewellery, you will get it back when you pay off the loan. Borro.com is the place where you don’t have to sell gold jewellery to raise cash.  If you want to avoid having to sell gold jewellery, check out Borro.com.

Selling second-hand VS pawning valuable items online

Selling second hand

Are you looking to sell second hand an item of value?  If so, do you really want to sell second hand, or would you prefer to keep your options open? If you pawn valuables, you don’t have to sell second hand, and you get the items back.  This may be a much better cash-raising solution than kissing goodbye to an item of value that you might otherwise need to sell second hand.

Pawning your valuables

Items suitable for pawning are often those which are good to sell second hand.  Jewellery and watches sell second hand easily, but are equally easily pawned.  Other items which people often sell second hand on ebay are precious metals such as gold, silver and platinum, as well as sports and showbiz memorabilia, and certain types of art and antique.

There is always a market for these items if you wish to sell second hand - but if you can sell second hand, you can always pawn.  Instead of trying to sell second hand online, why not try pawning these items online. Online pawnbrokers may be a much more flexible alternative than trying to sell second hand online.  If you sell second hand online an item of value, you may get a bit more than if you pawn it online, but you will not get it back.

This is the big advantage that online pawning has over a sell second hand online situation.  Before you sell second hand online, think about online pawning.  It might be a better cash-raising solution than trying to sell second hand.

Jewellery pawn shops

When are jewellery shops, pawn shops?

When they’re jewellery pawn shops! Actually, pawn shops are invariably jewellery pawn shops.  Jewellery is the most common item used to secure a loan in a pawn shop.  However, jewellery pawn shops often take other valuables as pledges too.  So, if you want to raise a loan on an expensive watch, a piece of art, an antique or some memorabilia, visiting jewellery pawn shops could be very worthwhile.

Borro.com is the first and leader of jewellery pawn shops on-line

We loan against art, antiques, watches and memorabilia.  Valuers in jewellery pawn shops like Borro.com are well used to dealing with other valuables as well as jewellery, and if you apply for an on-line for your jewellery loan with Borro.com, you will get a fast, easy and discreet service - end-to-end - on your computer.

On-line jewellery pawn shops like Borro.com allow a borrower to get a provisional valuation for their jewellery, gold and watches.  Then, the on-line jewellery pawn shops arrange for shipments of jewellery from the borrowers to the jewellery pawn shops, where loan offers are confirmed on receipt.  As pawn loans are accepted, on-line jewellery pawn shops wire money directly into borrower’s bank accounts, and later, loans are paid back to the jewellery pawn shops in the same way.  When loans are paid off, on-line jewellery pawn shops send the jewellery, gold or watches back to the borrowers.
