Why the drastic price difference?! One is solid and one is hollow. You pay for the weight when buying gold jewelry.

My grandma got me a chain for a religious holiday. I wore it for a couple years. In 6th grade I broke a link and went to fix it. The jeweler said “it’s Hollow. You can’t fix it.” It was a sad day for young Matthew. Now I only buy SOLID (thanks for trying grandma 🙏)

He said 800 vs 8000 though, but the solid one is only about 5-6x heavier than the solid, so why does it cost 10x more? Could be to do with the karat but even then it shouldn’t be 10x the price for not even 10x more gold

It is though you have two Chainz one chain is 10 karat gold 24 g of gold that is $33 per gram at today's gold value, which would equal to somewhere around $800 worth of gold The second chain is 14 karat gold it's more like $42 per gram and there's 128 g of solid gold which would equal like $5700.

Braden why do you hate on hollow chains so much I’ve owned both hollow and solid if you take care of your chains they won’t ever break hollow or not some people can’t afford your chains so I say if you want hollow buy hollow it can’t be fixed if it breaks if you don’t like that hollow chain send it to me and I’ll proudly rock it
@gheebuttersnaps20113 ай бұрын
He hates on it because it's too low of quality for him to sell. He sells products he can stand behind and hollow doesn't cut it. Same with his direct competitor, saints gold where I got mine from. They don't sell hollow either. Jacoje just tells you why he won't sell it. But if you like it, you do you. I almost went with a hollow piece from Macy's and I'm so glad I didn't. The chain I ended up with is actually a good investment with the price I got it for and it should last a life time. No matter how you treat hollow, I don't see it ever lasting a life time.

I think a lot of people falsely believe buying expensive gold jewelry is a good investment. It is NOT. I'll break it down for you... Also, at todays prices, you actually would MAKE money on the $800 chain. Read Below.. That $8,000 14k solid gold chain is actually worth $6,349.56 at todays current gold price per gram for 14k Gold purity. So after you buy the chain you already lost 21% of the value of the chain b4 u even put it on. And because gold is actually really high rn, that price could go significantly down depending on when you wanna sell it. The $800 chain in 10k gold in this video at that weight would be worth $882.83 in todays gold price per gram. So the $800 chain in this case is by FAR the better investment. With that said, stop listening to these jewlers trying to convince you that gold jewlery is an investment, buy jewlery, you can AFFORD and that you like. Obviously, buying gold is better than stainless steel as far as resale value, but if you want an investment in gold.. buy actual gold bars. Jewlers are adding significant money to the chain for their profits.

10K is absolute trash and does not even qualify as actually being gold. 128 gram, 14K chain is also trash and extremely over-priced. It contains approximately 2 ounces of gold, which is $4895 of gold. Wearing 10k and 14k gold is like advertising that you are poor and an economic ignoramus. Buy some investment-grade gold jewelry that is 22K to 24K and is priced close to the spot price of gold.
@BananaMana693 ай бұрын
Yeah its not even half gold, it even looks red like copper next to real gold. 14k is at least more then half gold and so should actually be classified as gold but I agree that buying 22k or 24k is better. I wouldnt wear a 24k chain often though it would deform and break very easily, 22k is probably best.
