How do you get from Neptune City to the Farmingdale store?
Head west on Route 33. You pass Jersey Shore University Medical Center, cross the Garden State Parkway, and stay on Route 33 into Farmingdale, where the store is at 68 Main St, Unit 3. From the north end of the borough, Route 66 west to Route 33 west is just as quick. Either way it is about 15 minutes outside summer beach traffic.
A lot of people search "Neptune" and mean the township. Neptune City is its own borough of roughly 5,000 people, split off from Neptune Township in 1881, sitting on the north bank of the Shark River with Route 35 running through it. It has its own borough hall, police, and elementary school, and it is small enough that no corner of it is far from Route 33.
Which parts of Neptune City and the Shore towns around it do we serve?
Sellers come from the Route 35 business strip, the residential streets that run down to the Shark River, and the blocks along the Neptune Township line. Across the river and up the coast, Avon-by-the-Sea, Bradley Beach, Belmar, and Asbury Park use the same Route 33 or Route 66 run to reach us.
What a Farmingdale customer wrote
Hi, I highly recommend Cash 4 Gold at 68 Main St., Farmingdale, NJ. We sold some gold there, and they paid us a great price per gram. The owner was very friendly and honest.
Google review, Farmingdale store
Price per gram is the right way to think about it: every gold offer at the counter comes down to the purity the analyzer reads and the grams the scale shows, and you see both.
What do Neptune City sellers bring in?
Shore living is hard on jewelry. Chains snag and kink, clasps give out, one earring of a pair disappears, and sterling goes dark in the salt air. None of that lowers what the metal is worth, because gold and silver are bought by content and weight, not by looks. Bring it as it is. The links below explain how each category is judged.
Why Neptune City sellers head inland to Farmingdale
Plenty of counters along Route 35 will look at gold. Some shoppers there want a loan against a piece, and for that a licensed pawnbroker is the place to go, since we only buy outright. For a straight sale, here is what the 15 minutes west gets you.
Purity Read, Not Guessed
The XRF analyzer reads the metal content through the surface in seconds, so a worn stamp, a resized band, or a clasp with no mark at all still gets an exact karat reading you can see.
Grams You Can See
Every group is weighed on a state-certified scale that faces you. The gram count and the karat reading are the whole basis of a gold offer, and neither happens out of sight.
Tarnish Does Not Count Against You
Dark sterling and dull gold from years near the ocean are weighed and tested like anything else. Please do not polish before you come in; it removes nothing but a little metal.

Selling inherited jewelry from a Neptune City home
Neptune City has stayed a small, mostly residential borough for well over a century, and many of its houses have passed from one generation to the next. When one is emptied, the jewelry, silver, and coins usually come out together in no particular order. That is fine. Bring the lot unsorted, and it is separated on the counter: gold by karat, sterling from plate, coins checked for dates and mint marks worth more than their metal, and watches looked at for their maker before their case weight. Each group gets its own number.
For a collection too big to carry, call the Farmingdale store at (732) 489-1314 to ask about a house call. The estate buyers service page explains house calls and paperwork for executors, and the guide to selling estate jewelry in New Jersey walks through the order of steps.
Selling a diamond ring from Neptune City
A diamond ring is judged in two parts. The band is tested and weighed like any gold or platinum. The stone is examined under magnification for carat weight, cut, color, and clarity, and a GIA or AGS report adds weight to the offer if you have one. You hear both values separately, so you always know what the diamond itself is contributing. See the diamond buyers page or the guide to where to sell an engagement ring for more.
The closest store: Cash 4 Gold Trading Post in Farmingdale

A Neptune City seller's visit, start to finish
Set everything on the counter with your ID. The pieces are split into groups in front of you, gold by karat, then silver, platinum, coins, stones, and anything that turns out to be plated or costume. Each group is read on the XRF analyzer and weighed in grams on the certified scale. You then hear one firm number based on that day's live spot market, with any collector coin or diamond value named on its own. For a typical jewelry box it is about 15 minutes. Say yes and you are paid at the counter; say no and it all rides back down Route 33 with you, with no charge for the testing.

Which Cash 4 Gold Trading Post store is closest to Neptune City?
Farmingdale, at 68 Main St, Unit 3, Farmingdale, NJ 07727, about 15 minutes west of Neptune City on Route 33. The phone is (732) 489-1314.
Is Neptune City the same as Neptune Township?
No. Neptune City is a separate borough of roughly 5,000 people that split from Neptune Township in 1881. Both are close to the Farmingdale store, and the drive from either is a short run west on Route 33.
When can I walk in without an appointment?
Walk-ins are welcome at the Farmingdale store Monday through Friday during posted hours and on Saturday from 11 to 4. The Farmingdale store is closed Sunday. Bring a valid government photo ID, which New Jersey requires for every precious-metals sale.
My silver is black with tarnish. Should I clean it first?
No. Tarnish does not change what sterling is worth, and polishing only removes a little metal. Bring it as it is, and it is tested and weighed the same way as a freshly polished piece.
How is an offer on my gold worked out?
Each karat group is read for purity with an XRF analyzer and weighed in grams on a state-certified scale while you watch, then priced against that day's live spot market. Coins with collector value and diamonds are valued separately. You hear the number before you decide.
Can you come to a house in Neptune City for a large estate?
For large collections, call the Farmingdale store at (732) 489-1314 to ask about a house call. Smaller lots are usually quickest at the counter.
Can I pawn my jewelry with you instead of selling it?
No. Cash 4 Gold Trading Post buys outright and does not make loans, so there is nothing to repay and nothing to redeem. If you want to borrow against a piece and keep it, a licensed pawnbroker is the place to ask.
