The Purchase Price Reference is set for each gram of gold, so the appraised value increases in proportion to the weight. In OTAKARAYA's appraisal, we measure the weight to the nearest 0.1 gram and calculate the gold value accurately.
Reasons why OTAKARAYA can buy at high prices
Valuable items we buy from customers are sold not only domestically but also through transactions with companies and specialists in 44 countries around the world.
In this way, we secure OTAKARAYA's highly diverse and unique sales routes that are not limited to specific countries or regions.
Gold market price trends over the last 30 years
30 years ago, in the 1990s, the price of gold was much cheaper than it is now.
However, influenced by unstable social situations such as the Global Financial Crisis and the pandemic, the value of gold as a "safe asset" has increased, and its price has soared accordingly.
Currently, gold prices are recording historical highs.
Tips for selling gold at a high price
The key to selling gold at a high price is "selling when the gold price is high" and "selling to a specialty store that offers high buying prices." Gold prices are currently soaring, making it the best time to sell.
The important thing here is how to choose a store that specializes in purchasing gold. Trust OTAKARAYA for high-priced gold purchases. With over 1,810 stores, our professional appraisers will provide a satisfying purchase price for you.

About the purity of gold
Gold grades are indicated using a unique 24-karat system, such as 24K or 18K. In addition to markings related to the 24-karat system, there are cases where a 'hallmark'—a certificate of fineness from the Mint—is engraved. While a hallmark is not a factor that directly increases the value of gold, it is important for secure transactions as many different types of gold are in circulation.
Especially with overseas products, it can be difficult to determine the gold's fineness from the markings alone. Please consult us, as we can buy back items even if they have no markings.
Accurate measurement even for metals with unknown purity
Rest assured even if you 'don't know the purity' or 'have no markings.' For low-purity gold or alloys mixed with multiple metals, we can accurately measure the value in a short time and provide an on-the-spot cash buyback. Please feel free to inquire about items turned away by other stores.
Valuations also account for decorative gemstones and design
When buying back gold products, OTAKARAYA evaluates not only the value of the gold itself but also the value of any gemstones and the design of the accessory. As a specialist store buying a wide range of precious metals, OTAKARAYA can offer a high valuation.

Frequently Asked Questions
about Gold & Precious Metal Purchase
How is the assessment of gold items from branded goods done?
For branded rings, necklaces, and other items, we evaluate both the price of gold and the value as a brand. In some cases, the brand value may result in a price much higher than the value of the gold itself.
Can OTAKARAYA purchase items with lower purity, such as K10?
Yes, we can absolutely purchase them. For example, even if there is no stamp, as long as we can confirm that the item contains some gold, we will gladly purchase it.
I have accessories, but the material is unknown.
If you bring them in, we will verify the material on the spot. Please feel free to consult with us.
Can you purchase small amounts of gold?
Regardless of the amount, we are happy to assess and purchase your items. Even if you're unsure whether it's gold, we offer free appraisals, so please don't hesitate to contact us.
Can you purchase items without accessories?
While having accessories is ideal, we are more than happy to assess and purchase items even without them.
Why is identification required?
The identification of the seller is required by the Antique Dealer Law, and we are required to keep a record for that purpose. It will not be used for any other reasons.
