Gold Purchasing FAQ's

What is the Difference between Selling and Collateral?

When you sell an item, you get a set amount of money in exchange for what you are selling. There are no interest charges and you no longer own the item that was sold.

If you use Gold & Gold Jewellery as collateral, you are using it to secure a loan with the intent of paying the money back. Therefore, once you’ve repaid the loan back as agreed, the item(s) will be given back to you. However, if you fail to make loan payments, then the Gold & Gold Jewellery will be used to pay back your loan and any associated costs.

What Types of Gold can be used for a Gold & Gold Jewellery Collateral Loan?

Gold is measured on a karat scale of 0 to 24. Coughlans offers loans for Gold & Gold Jewellery which is 9-karats and upwards. We accept yellow, rose and white gold. Gold plated items are not regarded as true gold and therefore cannot be used as collateral.

What is the Difference between Gold and Gold-Plated Items?

Gold items are made entirely of gold and therefore are more valuable than gold-plated items. Gold-plated items have a non-gold metal as a base, which is then covered in a thin layer of gold. For assessment purposes this means that they cannot be regarded as a true gold item. Therefore, they are not eligible to be used for a Gold & Gold Jewellery collateral-based loan.

What is a Mobile Loan Service?

Coughlans offers an innovative city-wide mobile loan service that makes applying and receiving a loan even more convenient for you. You request an appraisal of your Gold & Gold Jewellery and someone from our expert appraisal team will organise to meet you at a convenient location. Thereafter, a collateral loan or an exchange of your gold for cash can be discussed.

Our city-wide mobile services are available throughout the greater Durban, Pietermaritzburg, Cape Town and Johannesburg areas. Our Mobile Services extend into other selected areas across South Africa, contact us to find out more.
