Gold ? And How You?ve Never Seen It Before

Gold – And How You’ve Never Seen It Before











24k Gold plated iPhone 4


(PRWEB UK) 19 October 2011

Ever since gold plated mobiles were seen on Dragons Den the public have been fascinated in gold plating services.

Now, 4 years on and with their diy gold plating kits selling all over the world, Gold Solutions are offering the public the opportunity to find out how to gold plate any metal household item for themselves. For the next month they are offering 1, 2 and 4 hour training courses, at subsidised prices, just so that anyone wishing to get in to this lucrative –and as yet – untapped market can do so.

Terry George says “although electroplating is over 200 years old, the modern application of this has still not been addressed properly. The fact that you can go down any High Street in the country and not see, for example, a gold plated iPod or iPhone in any shop window is just bad marketing.

“The idea that with millions of people shopping between now and xmas, none of them would buy one of these attractive products is unrealistic. Then, when you then look at what else can be gold plated it is clear what an amazing business opportunity this is”.

It has long been understood that retailing large volumes of products has always been based on shops using standard marketing principals of display – and nothing creates more interest in an existing product range than seeing it gold plated for the first time – but Gold Solutions believe that the public need have the chance to see that for themselves.

With over 1000 existing buyers of their home plating kits and chemicals in the UK and abroad, they have now just created the world’s first ever Gold Plating Guild that visitors can go to and find a gold plating service (GPG member) in their own area or region free of charge, such is Gold Solutions determination to get these products and services to everyone in every town and city in the UK.

With existing Operators earning well in excess of £50 per hour, and with no previous experience required, it is easy to see why people are turning to this all over the world to generate some extra income. Once people see just how easy it is to gold plate they soon realise the potential.

Again, George “An example of just one of the hundreds of items that can be plated is a well-known brand of safety razor, which already has a chrome plated handle, which we just plated with 24k gold. This created a fantastic and totally unique gift which was sold as an inexpensive – yet totally original – present for Fathers Day this year and will now be sold during the Christmas period. THIS is the direction this industry will be going in next year in a big way”.

Gold Solutions will also be announcing soon the start of a charity with the aim of raising money utilising its gold plating facility. It is intended that a range of products will be plated with 24k gold and sold for various charititable causes.

The minimum purchase amount is only 1 gram of gold, and liquidity is ensured by GBULLION’s guarantee to buy gold back at the Gold Spot Price whenever one needs to sell.

Gold Price Per Ounce Predictions Over $2,000 According to US Gold Dealer Regal Assets

Gold Price Per Ounce Predictions Over $ 2,000 According to US Gold Dealer Regal Assets













iGoldLive – Live Gold Prices Delivered to Your Phone.


Los Angeles, Ca (PRWEB) August 15, 2011

The price of gold bullion may exceed $ 2000 before years end according to industry expert predictions to include US gold dealer Regal Assets. Regal Assets is a US precious metals dealer for gold, silver, platinum and palladium that also provides daily syndicated gold news and alerts. Regals gold expert, Tyler Gallagher, puts out a weekly video recap that updates gold investors on the events directly effecting the global financial market and its effect on the price of gold.

The Federal Reserve sketched a dim outlook for the economy last Tuesday, suggesting it will remain weak for two more years. The tailspin on Wall Street was further fueled by Standard & Poor’s decision to downgrade long-term U.S. debt. Fears of another U.S. recession and worries about how governments will deal with global debt problems sent the gold and silver prices into an international rally.

Chicago Mercantile Exchange raised the amount of money it costs to buy a speculative gold futures contract and after gold spiked to a record of $ 1,817.60 an ounce in overnight trading. The CME deployed the same technique with silver in May when price of silver skyrocketed to almost $ 50 an ounce, which then led to more than a 30% decline in the metal.

Despite the efforts to keep gold prices from inflating, the international demand for gold and silver from consumers and individual investors is increasing. Behind India, China is the second largest consumer of physical gold. Regal Assets estimates that silver demand is expected to increase 40% for India and same for China by 2012 which will also effect gold and silver prices.

Due to the volatility in the global market and the diverse variables that effect gold prices, Regal Assets has created the smartphone app iGoldLive that delivers live prices, news and alerts. Regal Assets is an A+ rated gold dealer that allows US consumers to buy gold bullion online and have it shipped direct to their home for physical delivery thru their site http://www.RegalGoldCoins.com

With Gold Prices Creeping Up, Couples Encouraged to Get Creative When Choosing Wedding Bands

With Gold Prices Creeping Up, Couples Encouraged to Get Creative When Choosing Wedding Bands











Paisley Wedding Band

(PRWEB) September 08, 2011

With the recent rise in the price of gold, and an economy that has seen brighter days, couples planning to wed may be wondering how they are going to afford their wedding bands. Added to the cost of the wedding ceremony, reception, and travel, there may be little left over. But according to Apples of Gold, the L.A. based online jeweler, this needn’t be cause for concern.

The Apples of Gold commitment to ethical pricing and consistent margins means their prices will always be competitive—but competitive doesn’t mean affordable for all. In addition to their more traditional gold wedding bands, Apples of Gold is featuring a variety of styles and choices for couples who are looking to find their perfect wedding bands, but who can’t cope with the rising price of gold.

Rather than despair over the rising prices of wedding jewelry, Apples of Gold encourages couples to think creatively about their wedding jewelry so that they can find the pieces that are not only stunning and meaningful, but also affordable. Brides and grooms shouldn’t feel guilty about setting budget for wedding jewelry. The amount of money a couple spends on a wedding ring is no measure of their love. The wedding ring is an investment, but it is an investment in a piece of jewelry—not an investment in the marriage or commitment itself.

While at the moment gold is demonstrating its enduring value and allure, it is also at its priciest. If a couple favors gold, a band that contains a higher percentage of an alloy is a money-saving option. 10k and 14k gold still offer a lot of luster, but with a more reasonable price tag than 18k or 24k. Another option is to choose a narrower band. Rings are priced by weight, thus a slightly narrower band will decrease the cost.

Another option is to explore other metals. Titanium and tungsten bands, for example, boast high durability and an everlasting shine. Men especially appreciate their resistance to wear-and-tear, and a price point that is far below gold. And for those who still desire at least a touch of gold, titanium bands can incorporate gold accents. Sterling silver is also a respectable option. Though it has a tendency to tarnish with time, a quick buff with a jewelry cloth keeps it looking its finest.

Though the economy ebbs and flows, the Apples of Gold commitment to delighting their customers with jewelry that is both extraordinary and affordable jewelry does not. Founded in 1999, the company set out to develop a jewelry company that would not only do well, but would do good. Ethical, value-based pricing practices were the foundation. The Apples of Gold commitment to quality in their products and the highest standards for customer service and consumer satisfaction come naturally. In the fine jewelry industry, Apples of Gold is a diamond in the rough.

Esslinger and Company Introduces the AuRACLE Electronic Gold Tester

Esslinger and Company Introduces the AuRACLE Electronic Gold Tester













AuRACLE Gold Tester


Saint Paul, MN (PRWEB) July 12, 2011

The new AuRACLE Electronic Gold Tester from GemOro, has arrived at Esslinger and Company, St. Paul, MN. This is the ultimate gold tester for anyone who buys or sells gold, testing metals in seconds and providing immediate results.

Introduced at the JCK show in Vegas in the first week of June 2011, the AuRACLE gold tester made waves among the businesses and jewelers present. Among those impressed by the gold tester’s abilities was Esslinger & Company’s owner Bill Esslinger.

“I’ve never had much confidence in other gold testers I’ve seen until the AuRACLE,” said Esslinger. “It’s the most accurate tester I’ve seen.”

The AuRACLE gold tester features patented testing technology that will test gold of all color variations from six karat gold to 24 karat gold, platinum, and even distinguish between gold filled, gold plated, and solid gold pieces. The results appear on the LED display within seconds, and it can test multiple items in a row.

Unlike similar gold testers and other more expensive X-ray gold testers, “this is the gold tester to invest in, it gives consistent results every time,” said Esslinger.

The AuRACLE gold tester is a non-destructive test: it does not require the use of any gels, staining chemicals, or acids to test metals. As it doesn’t use any fluids or chemicals, this gold tester is safe to use when testing unknown metals.

The LED display provides specific and easy to read results. When a green light appears, it indicates that the metal falls within a range of an actual karat weight. If a green light appears, it is indicating that the metal falls between several karat weights and needs to be examined more closely. Should a red light appear, the metal that is being tested is definitely not actually gold, it is simply plated or another metal like silver.

With easy to understand results, this gold tester is a $ 299 investment that will last for as long as a business needs to continue testing gold: the included pen probe testing tip will provide approximately 5,000 gold tests and when the pen probe needs to be replaced, a new probe is available for only $ 19.95.

Visit Esslinger Gold Testing Supplies at esslinger.com for more information on the GemOro AuRACLE gold tester.
