Gold-buyback company partners with FedEx

Sharon, Mass.--Cash for Gold USA, another company that offers consumers the chance to mail in unwanted gold jewelry for money, has entered into a partnership with FedEx in an effort to improve customer service.

According to the release, those looking to sell broken or unwanted gold jewelry now can print out a free FedEx shipping label at home and use it to send their material through the mail, with insurance up to $1,000.

"Before the FedEx deal, people could click to request a free Goldpak, an insured envelope that we could send out right away," company President Norm Schneider stated in a media release. "That's still available as an option, but we're responding to the needs of customers who need money even faster to pay their bills and buy groceries."

The FedEx system provides each customer with a unique tracking number and bar code so orders can be tracked. Shipping labels can be printed directly from the company's Web site, CashForGoldUSA.com.

Though they share a very similar name, the Sharon, Mass.-based Cash for Gold USA is a separate company from Fort Lauderdale, Fla.-based Cash 4 Gold, the company featured in a segment on NBC News' Nightline in March because of the controversy it is stirring up among consumers, who claim they are not being justly compensated for the gold they mail into the company.

Cash 4 Gold and Cash for Gold USA are apparently part of a growing trend of companies appealing to cash-crunched consumers looking to capitalize on the high price of gold.

Cash for Gold USA also operates a silver-buyback service where customers can get paid for sterling silver jewelry, silver bars, sterling silver flatware and serving pieces. For more information, visit CashForSilverUSA.com.
