Right now it\u2019s debuting at 10 Cub Food locations across Minnesota.<\/li>\n<li>Bring your gold, silver or platinum jewelry in a safe container. Make sure to remove any jewels. The Goldst\u03cbr Kiosk is not designed to give money based on any precious or semi-precious stones.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019ll need to bring picture identification. The Jewelry Kiosk, although a machine, must still follow the law. More on that below. Also, be prepared to have your picture taken.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019ll need to agree on a $2 appraisal fee. This is non-refundable whether you take the cash offer or not.<\/li>\n<li>Put your jewelry in the slot \/ container.<\/li>\n<li>Wait a few minutes.<\/li>\n<li>The Goldst\u03cbr Jewelry Machine will then present you with a cash offer.<\/li>\n<li>Accept the offer, or don\u2019t. If you decide to take the offer, you will receive the offer you agreed upon. If you choose not to accept, you will get your jewelry back.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_height_row=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1450698552918{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}&#8221; parallax=&#8221;&#8221; wide_row=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; el_class=&#8221;articlemainheader&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 20px !important;\">Jewelry Kiosk Security<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]You may be asking yourself \u201cWon\u2019t this machine make it easier for criminals to turn their \u201cloot\u201d into cash faster? Possibly Yes, but more likely No. The Goldst\u03cbr Kiosk Machine, is still accountable to the Federal and State laws of secondhand merchandising. To be more precise, it must follow the same laws pawn shops have to abide by. Such as:<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"list orb purple-lite \"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You will be required to show picture identification.<\/li>\n<li>You will be required to take a picture.<\/li>\n<li>If you accept the offer, the jewelry that was put in will be organized in a such a way that it will be associated with you. Just like a pawn shop.<\/li>\n<li>And just like a pawn shop, Goldst\u03cbr will be required to hold on to the jewelry for a period of no less than 30 days.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/div>[vc_column_text]However, criminals are getting smarter by the day, and being this is new technology, there\u2019s a chance some clever individual will find a way to circumvent the system (e.g., taking a picture). Will the machine require or even know if it\u2019s taking a picture of a person\u2019s face, or taking a picture of a picture? Can you wear a mask? This I\u2019m not sure of, but you can bet there are surveillance cameras there. Possibly an armed guard. My guess, it\u2019s going to be extremely difficult to fence merchandise without someone knowing who you are.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p>Miller of Goldst\u03cbr states \u201cWhat we found is the average consumer will pass by the kiosk a few times before they decide to approach it,\u201d he says. \u201cAbout 70 percent are appraisals and 30 percent are appraisals with acceptance offers. We have had people bring in bags of jewelry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_height_row=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1450698513936{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}&#8221; parallax=&#8221;&#8221; wide_row=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 20px !important;\">A Few Things to Consider.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"list orb teal-lite \"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Kiosk will not give you more than $350. Perhaps in the future it will, but for right now it won\u2019t. So don\u2019t put all of your jewelry in at once if you have a pretty good idea it\u2019s value is higher. But also be aware that each time you start over it will cost you another $2.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t expect the machine to care about your personal feeling toward the jewelry. It doesn\u2019t. It will analyze it, and give you a quote.<\/li>\n<li>It\u2019s probably not in your best interest to sell <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomingring.com\/antique-engagement-rings\/\">antique jewelry<\/a> at this machine. Antique jewelry, because of it\u2019s rarity, is worth more than the price of the gold, platinum or silver it\u2019s made of.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_height_row=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1450698463200{margin-bottom: 40px !important;}&#8221; parallax=&#8221;&#8221; wide_row=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 20px !important;\">Be Smart!

Even after the collapse in 2008 there is still more gold held in households than there is in any government institution and Fort Knox combined.\u201d In other words, with so much gold out there, the jewelry kiosk has plenty of competition.<\/p>\n<p>First get your quote from the machine, then take your jewelry to a pawn shop and see what they will give you. You might be surprised. Many gold and precious metal buyers pay exceptionally well, their limit isn&#8217;t $350, and the appraisal is free.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_height_row=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1450700383076{margin-bottom: 100px !important;}&#8221; parallax=&#8221;&#8221; wide_row=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 20px !important;\">The Goldst\u03cbr Jewelry Kiosk &#8211; Conclusion<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p>Whether you choose to use the new jewelry kiosk to avoid an uncomfortable situation with another person (e.g., embarrassment, or nervousness), simple curiosity, or because it\u2019s offers you the best quote, there\u2019s a good chance the coin machines will have company, and competition is good!<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center !important; font-size: 25px !important; color: #3d6289 !important;\">Introducing the Art Carved Blooming Rose Flower Engagement Ring with Rose Gold Petals<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][imageeffect image=&#8221;8705&#8243; type=&#8221;shadow&#8221; align=&#8221;aligncenter&#8221; alt=&#8221;Art Carved Blooming Rose Flower Engagement Ring with Rose Gold Petals \u2013 bbr611&#8243; titleoverlay=&#8221;&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;&#8221; link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.bloomingring.com\/blooming-rose-engagement-ring-collection\/art-carved-blooming-rose-flower-engagement-ring-with-rose-gold-petals-bbr611\/&#8221; target=&#8221;_self&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Goldst\u03cbr has made it so you can now trade in your gold, platinum and silver pieces of jewelry at a kiosk for cash, as easy as you put coins in a Coinstar machine.
