It's the same the world over i'm afraid, but if you have any pieces of gold that you are not too fond of why don't you take them with you and see if you can do a deal with them where ever you go, could work out ok.

Also, don't forget Gold may have gone up, but the price of the workmanship and turn around times are far better than here.

The price of gold has tripled world-wide in the last few years and is expected to double again by 2013. I buy my jewellery from Firuze and whenever I buy a chain I can never decide what length to have so I have a shorter chain with another chain about two inches long with a link on either end so that I can add it as an extension. This way I get two different lengths from the same chain. I bought a white gold chain this year that I'm delighted with. One thing you can be sure of, whatever price the jewellery is this year it will definitely be more expensive next year.
