But what if he did put a ring on it and now your taste has changed? Or maybe, your taste in men has changed too! Many women are struggling with the changing gold trends and their wedding ring isn’t what they fell in love with in the 80s. While the sentimental value may be great, there’s nothing wrong with your ring evolving just like your marriage has. So go ahead and scout out new styles. You may find something else you like…or you may decide to update the ring you have. If you have to wear anything every single day-you should LOVE it! And by all means-if you’ve ditched the man, ditch the ring. I know a girl who sold her wedding ring and bought a convertible!

The appeal of gold is obvious. Its bright yellow color and shiny luster have been considered dazzling since the dawn of civilization. It’s also the most malleable and ductile pure metal known to man and doesn’t oxidize in air or water.

Gold has served as a symbol of wealth throughout history. As such, many countries have tied their currency to a “gold standard,” meaning all its currency is backed by reserves of pure gold bricks.

However, the amount of gold in the world is finite and production has not grown in relation to the world’s economies. Most countries, including the U.S., have gone off the gold standard, because there just isn’t enough of it to back all our currency.

All these factors have created the perfect storm for those wanting to sell their gold. The price of gold has nearly doubled just in the last five years. So, now is the time to get rid of any gold jewelry that you don’t either wear or want to keep for sentimental value.

The good news is that it’s easy and fun to sell your gold and platinum jewelry. My Gold Party has local reps ready to help you throw your own home gold party. You supply the guests and the old gold jewelry, and you’ll all go home a little richer. Just for selling the gold jewelry you’re never going to wear again anyway!

Just go to MyGoldParty.com to learn more about how to host your own gold party or become a My Gold Party rep.

Hi everyone!

The holidays are fast approaching and I, for one, could use all the money I could get to help make the burden a little lighter. Sell gold with My Gold Party to help you make ends meet.

It is also the time for fundraisers and donations. This is a good opportunity to use My Gold Party as a way to get donations for your charity or organization that you are or want to help out this holiday season. You can host a party where the guests can bring in their unwanted gold and donate a portion of their proceeds to the organization(s) that you are trying to help.

This can be done in a number of ways. The person selling their gold can donated a portion of their proceeds, a set percentage of their proceeds, or even the entire proceeds from one piece of jewelry. The great part about this is that everyone walks away feeling good. You, as the host, feel good about helping out those in need and so do your guests.

One of the awesome parts about this is that the people walk away with money. They don’t even have to pay anything out of their pocket, the donate, and make money. It’s a pretty cool idea. If you are interested in hosting a party or finding a rep in your area feel free to contact us at info@mygoldparty.com. Any other information you might need you can find on our website.

In light of Thanksgiving we’d like to thank all of our reps and hosts. We are grateful for you. We hope that everyone has a safe, healthful, and happy thanksgiving!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

‘Tis the season to… spend, spend, spend!

The holidays can be economically demanding. How about earning some extra cash for presents, food, or even decorations? Wouldn’t it be nice to change that gold jewelry into a christmas tree? Or that special something for your kids or significant other?

We all have jewelry that we don’t like, is broken, or simply outdated. Instead of letting that jewelry collect dust, sell gold and make some immediate cash! Gold is expected to remain at over $1,000 an ounce through at least the end of the year. Now is the time to sell gold at a gold party.

I recently went to sell my gold and it is helping me with my Christmas shopping.

To find reps or people hosting parties in your area feel free to contact us at info@mygoldparty.com. We’d love to help you out this holiday season and look forward to hearing from you!

Want to sell gold but don’t want to go to any of the gold parties? We can help!

We don’t buy gold solely from people who have attended our parties. You can also send it to us and we can get a quote for you.

Want to know how to receive a quote? Once you send in your gold we test it. Once it has been tested we weigh it and price it out. After all this has been done we let you know what your gold is quoted at via e-mail. You can choose to accept the offer or have the items sent back to you. If you choose to accept the quote we send out the check the same day. It’s an easy way to make money and get some immediate cash!

We pay out based on three factors:

• The spot price of gold that day
• The karat
• The weight in grams

We look forward to hearing from you!

Birmingham, MI (PRWEB) October 14, 2009 – My Gold Party, LLC announces that it has been named “America’s Best Home Based Business!”
My Gold Party will be featured in an upcoming segment of the Art of Living with Marilu Henner as part of the show’s Family Finance series.

My Gold Party, a Michigan-based company, is quickly approaching 100 representatives! “This is an exciting time for us — to have more bodies on the ground and to be able to give the public an alternative option to mailing in their gold,” says January Thomas, President of My Gold Party. Business men and women alike are becoming independent representatives of My Gold Party either on a part time or full time basis. To apply to become an authorized representative, please click here.

Through in-home gold parties, independent representatives of My Gold Party weigh gold jewelry and other gold items and pay a percentage of the current spot price of gold on the commodities market. A My Gold Party representative arrives at your party equipped with a gold tester, scale and loupe to evaluate each person’s gold. A no-obligation offer is then made on the spot. Think Tupperware-style party without having to actually spend money. Instead, guests who sell gold leave with money and the party host and My Gold Party representative receive a percentage of the total gold sales. After the party, My Gold Party melts the gold and handles the bulk sale of gold to brokers. Party goers see the parties as a safe, convenient way to sell their old gold. Why not get some money for something that was sitting in a drawer collecting dust?

About nine years ago, gold was approximately $300 an ounce. As of October 6, 2009, gold has climbed to an all-time high hitting over $1,040 an ounce and seems to be steadily on the rise, which is good news for people looking to cash in those old (dusty) treasures! Individuals are generating extra cash by selling their gold at a My Gold Party home party or other My Gold Party event.

There are three main aspects to Thomas’ business. The first is attracting new people to join the company. The second focuses on pairing the public with a My Gold Party independent representative to schedule a home gold party. The representative evaluates each person’s gold and a no-obligation offer is made on the spot. And last, but not least, My Gold Party offers a place where individuals can mail in their gold. Once the gold has been received, it is tested and weighed. A quote is then sent via email where the individual customer can accept the amount of the quote or simply have their gold returned.

Whether you’re a My Gold Party independent representative, a party host or a party goer, “It’s fun, it’s profitable, it’s you!”

My Gold Party is the leader in helping you sell gold.

Once a person becomes a rep they purchase a starter kit filled with all the materials to help you host your own gold parties. The kit includes a number of things:

• A My Gold Party book that gives you information on how to host a successful gold party.
• A professional gold tester with an instructional DVD. This helps identify what karat the gold is. The gold testing pen is included.
• A jewelers loupe that helps you see the markings on each piece of jewelry. It has a bail to which a chain can be attached.
• A gold scale that weighs the gold. The scale is capable of weighing in grams, carat, pennyweights, ounces, troy ounces and many other units. They are supplied with 110-Volt AC adapters and also run on 9-Volt batteries (sold seperately) with programmable Auto Shut-Off to save battery life. The series you get is covered by a Two Year Manufacturer’s Warranty.
• A magnet. This helps determine what is gold and what is not without having to go through the hassle of testing it. Just run the magnet over the gold and any non-gold items will stick to it. Easy as pie!
• Also included is some marketing material.

The kit costs $699.95 + Shipping costs. I know, this seems like a lot. However, most people make back the money in just a couple of parties. This kit makes it so easy for your friends and family to sell gold so you have the rest of the time to mingle and enjoy some hors d’oeuvres.

We look forward to hearing from you soon!

When former preschool teacher and mother of three Sandi Staiti heard that her sister-in-law was hosting a gold party, she was a bit put off that she wasn’t invited – but also intrigued. “I had no idea what gold parties were. I thought they were jewelry swaps,” she confesses. After scoring an explanation and an invite, Sandi corralled some junky jewelry she had lying around the house – broken chains, orphaned earrings and pieces she no longer wears – and headed to the party. She says, “When I was offered $1,300, I almost fell off my chair.”

After her big payday, Sandi immediately looked into hosting her own party. After some research, she chose My Gold Party, the company her sister-in-law used. She booked two gold parties within two weeks, and after scoring big as a host (a cut of 10 percent of the profits), she set her sights on becoming a rep. Good move: Her first party as a rep paid out over $5,000, earning the hostess around $500 and Sandi a bit more.

Now with more than 100 gold parties under her belt, Sandi has the system down. She starts by sending each hostess a customized flyer to be distributed to potential guests. “I love that I’m free to create my own promotional materials and put my marketing degree to use,” she says. The day of the party, Sandi arrives 30 minutes beforehand to set up and explain to the hostess how the party will run. Then Sandi tests each piece of jewelry with a digital gold tester, sorts it by carat, weights it and gives each guest a price. If the price is right, she gives them the cash on the spot (from her personal account). Then she sends the gold to MGP and receives a check within 48 hours. Each party yields different results, says Sandi: “I’ve had some gold parties make $50 and others make over $10,000!”

Gold parties have become a nice source of income for Sandi’s family. Her earnings have allowed them to continue to enjoy the same activities they did in a stronger economy, like traveling and staying involved in multiple sports. And she says she wouldn’t give up her new calling for the world. “I love what I do,” raves Sandi. “I’ve met great people, heard wonderful stories about jewelry and even kept some pieces that I couldn’t resist!”
