Before buying or selling gold in Nairobi

Compare like with like: the same karat, net gold weight and product type. Ask whether a quote includes tax and making charges, and whether a buy-back deduction applies. For used jewellery, confirm how stones and non-gold parts are removed from the payable weight.
