sell gold or give it away for free

People usually visit goldsmith or jewelry shops rarely. That is quite understandable due to the fact that we don´t need such services everyday. We visit groceries or supermarkets everyday because we can buy there products and obtain services that we need daily. That is not the case with jewelry shops. When do we visit them, then? Usually such visit is connected with some kind of celebration or important holiday taking place. Like someone´s birthday or wedding anniversary. In this situations it is a good idea to buy some jewelry as a gift for a given person. Sometimes people go to goldsmith when they want to sell gold. And that is the situation with me. Last week I went there to sell some of my gold items and I was really surprised. Why? The goldsmith told me that I have few possibilities. First, to sell gold or the second, to give it away for free. I thought that he must be crazy. Who would like to give away his or her gold for free? That is almost impossible. I asked him what this is about and he explained to me that by giving it away I am able to receive a product for it instead of money. So actually I am not giving it away for free. Funny thing is that I wanted to sell gold so that I have money for my friend´s birthday present. So, exchanging it for something I can use as a gift seemed like a good idea. After all I have made a good deal, don´t you think?
