Frequently asked questions
What can I sell through ankauf in Hamburg?
The options include buyers for gold jewellery, jewellery, watches and investment coins. Some profiles also point to handmade oriental rugs and antique or pre-owned rugs, so the right choice depends on the item you want to bring.
Should I contact a buyer before visiting?
Yes, especially when selling a luxury watch, investment coin or rug. Ask whether the item falls within the business’s speciality and whether you should bring documents, certificates or other details for the assessment.
Where can I sell luxury watches in Hamburg?
Start with businesses that explicitly handle luxury watches rather than choosing a general jewellery buyer. Confirm the brands and conditions accepted, then ask how the watch will be assessed and which documents may support its history.
Can I sell investment coins and gold jewellery at the same place?
Some Hamburg businesses cover both categories, while others focus more narrowly on jewellery or precious metals. Describe each item separately when you make contact, because coins may require different information from worn or inherited jewellery.
What should I prepare before selling a rug?
Record the rug’s dimensions, materials, approximate age, origin and condition. Photos can help with an initial conversation, but ask whether the business needs to inspect the rug in person before discussing a possible purchase.
