Things To Consider Before Buying a Gold Chain:
Be it any form of gold jewellery, you need to keep in mind certain things before investing your hard-earned money:
- Always check if the piece is embossed with the BIS Hallmark logo. This is very important to assess the quality and purity of gold.
- Insist on getting the weight checked in front of you and cross-check it with the numbers on the bill.
- Bargain on the making charges. Most stores charge you anywhere between 12%-20% on an average. This can go as high as 40% in designer and branded shops. So, keep that in mind before you choose the place.
- If you are looking it from an investment per se, avoid stone-studded chains. Pure gold chains alone will give you a higher exchange value.
- Check for the length and width of the chain. Make sure it’s neither too short or too long. Also, ensure that the make of the chain is sturdy and avoid designs that are delicate, as they can break off easily.
