At Huckabees it was based on weight. I didn't hagle, I did this about a year and a half ago, gold was not has high as it is now. I tried to search the internet but it was somewhat confusing. I went in confident (not beggin) like I knew what I was doing. I feel I got a pretty good deal. I don't remember how much I had, but they wrote me a check for almost $300.

Thanks, I would suppose the best time to sell is when the market is at it's worse... so I think it's about the right time.

Also, how do you play the game? What do you say without offending the sales person? I'm afraid I've never been very good at this.
Gold is sold for its scrap value. Its sold either in grams or pennyweights & by its karatage. Here's a calculator you can use to figure out what your gold or other precious metals are worth.

The Gold Scrap Conversion Table & Melt Value Calculator

I would wait till gold is over $900/oz before selling.
