Cash4Gold (also known as Cash4Gold.

com) is the gold refinery division of Albar

Precious Metal Refining, based in Pompano Beach Florida. Despite its name,
Cash4Gold also accepts precious metals other than gold - including silver and
platinum.

About Cash4Gold.com

Famous for its recent TV commercials and infomercials, Cash4Gold is the nation's
leading precious metals refiner, earning a place on Entrepreneur Magazine's Hot
500 list of growing companies in 2007. Since it was founded, Cash4Gold has
fulfilled over 50,000 transactions and paid millions of dollars to customers
sending in their old, broken or unwanted jewelry.

How Cash For Gold Companies Work

Companies that pay cash for gold, including Cash4Gold.com, pay the current market
value of the gold or metal once it is melted down. In weak economic times the
value of precious metals remains strong so turning unwanted gold chains, old
jewelry broken necklaces or earrings is a viable and completely legal money-making
option.

The Refining Process

Cash4Gold.com maintains its own in-company refinery. All gold material is

chemically refined and processed and a new silver processing facility can
chemically refine up to 40,000 ounces of fine silver per day, in addition to the
thousands of pounds of gold that pass through the furnaces, ovens and chemical
treatment facilities. The refining process, materials and equipment have exceeded
all local and federal emission requirements.

How Your Gold is Valued

Gold is currently selling between $850 to $930 per ounce. However, the amount
that you receive for the gold you send to Cash4Gold.com will vary based on its
quality, karats and its value once the item is melted. The Cash4Gold.com website
has a current "gold value" chart, however the prices on it should only be viewed
as an estimate and not a firm offer of what you will receive since the value of
your gold depends on several factors noted above.

Selling to Third Parties

Many people believe that the only way to get the most money for their jewelry is
to sell it to a pawn shop or other third party. However, what they often don't
realize is that once the item is sold, the third party takes a larger portion of
the amount than the individual expected.

Cash4Gold.com owns and operates its own refinery, so there are no third parties
involved. The company's main selling point in its advertisements and infomercials
is to assist people in getting money for their gold by giving them a postage-paid,
insured packet.

The Gold Kit: "Refiner's Return Pak"

This "Refiner's Return Pak" is like a Gold Kit. You simply add your unwanted, old
or broken jewelry - including necklaces, rings, earrings, and any other items made
of gold, silver or platinum and ship them free to Cash4Gold. The "Gold Kit"
packet is insured and sealed to prevent loss, theft or damage. You can track your
package's progress to the Cash4Gold refinery online using the company's "Track the
Pak" feature.

Individuals wishing to sell their gold for money can also use their own packaging
if they don't want to wait for the official "Refiner's Return Pak", however the
Gold Kit return packet is recommended as it is made from heavy-duty DuPont Tyvek™
material to protect against rips and tears.

Insuring the Contents of the Package

The Cash4Gold packet is insured for up to $100. If you believe the amount of the
jewelry you're including within the packet is more than this amount, you are
strongly encouraged to add your own insurance to the packet up to the amount
estimated to help further prevent loss, damage or theft.

Getting Cash for Gold

Once your items are received, Cash4Gold will contact you with a price to buy your
unwanted jewelry. This estimate is based on the melted value of the precious
metals after refining. If the price is agreed to, Cash4Gold will mail out a check
promptly for the agreed-upon amount. If you don't agree with Cash4Gold's
appraisal of your jewelry, you can elect to have it returned to you within 10 days
of the date on the check.

If you don't have time to wait for a check to arrive, you can also elect to use
Cash4Gold's "Fast Cash" system which will deposit money into your bank account
within 24 hours after the material is processed.

Determining the Value of Gold

The price you are paid for your gold is based on a pennyweight (DWT). 20
pennyweight equals one ounce. When researching gold prices you may also hear the
term "spot price" - this is the market price for immediate delivery of a commodity
such as precious metals. The spot price is the price gold is trading for at that
particular day.

Items of Sentimental Value

Most people choose to collect the cash from their unwanted gold, but it's possible
that some pieces - such as old wedding bands, class rings or family heirlooms have
great sentimental value.

Before getting cash for your gold you are urged to consider their personal value,
your financial needs and the timeframe before you decide to sell. An honest
assessment can help you make a choice whether to sell your gold for money or to
make other adjustments in your monthly budget.

Semi-Precious Stones, Gemstones and Diamonds

Cash4Gold pays wholesale price for diamonds, however semi-precious stones are not
included in the money you receive. Customers are welcome to remove the
semiprecious stones from the jewelry before sending it to Cash4Gold.
