* Analysts warn that investors should be cautious when selling precious metals, as prices can fluctuate quickly.
* Experts recommend doing due diligence and getting multiple valuations before selling jewellery or other precious items.
* Selling jewellery to pay off debt is not recommended without proper ownership confirmation.
