So Ms. Liu looked for a business, 　　 How deep is the gold jewelry market now? How can ordinary consumers buy jewelry and gold jewelry without losing money? Precautions for buying gold jewelry: 　　　　 1. It is difficult to buy fake jewelry and claim that Miss Tao bought herself a gold necklace of a thousand pure gold on her birthday, but it did not take long for the necklace to break. When she took it to repair, the repairman's words surprised her. The staff of the gold shop told her that this necklace is 18K. So Miss Liu went to a merchant to request a return, but was refused. The reason for the business is that the certificate is written with a thousand pure gold, and they are not responsible.　　　　 According to the definition of the gold industry, pure gold means that the gold content is not less than 99%; Thousands of pure gold means that the gold content is not less than 99.9%. However, buyers often do not have the corresponding professional knowledge, so it is difficult to distinguish when buying, only to see the test certificate, and the test certificate is often provided by the merchant when selling the goods. Once consumers find problems after making a purchase, merchants often use test certificates as the basis for disapproving consumer complaints.　　　　 'According to the civil litigation system of who advocates and who presents evidence, consumers should indeed issue relevant certificates, but if the lawsuit is won in the end, the cost of the appraisal should be borne by the merchant.' A staff member of the Consumer Protection Committee of Wucheng District told reporters.　　　　 At present, there are no special 'three guarantees' regulations in the jewelry industry. For example, jade, karat gold, thousand pure gold, etc. only have the question of authenticity and do not belong to the 'three guarantees' product range. If there is a problem with the craftsmanship or quality of the jewelry, the consumer can request the merchant to repair it. If it is to be returned, the two parties must negotiate and resolve it. 2. The authoritative question of the identification certificate The reporter visited a number of jewelry stores yesterday and found that there are really many jewelry identification certificates. There may be more than 10 kinds of certificates in a store, some are just a piece of plastic-sealed paper, and some are a two-fold certificate. . In a jadeite shop, the clerk saw that the reporter was more concerned about the appraisal certificate, and said in particular: “If you want an appraisal certificate, it’s okay. As long as you get a fancy product, you can get an authoritative appraisal certificate right away without adding more money.” 　　　　' Isn't the test very strict?' the reporter asked. The other party said with a bit of disdain: 'It's all friends, it's not a big problem to get an appraisal certificate.' The reporter learned from the Municipal Quality and Technical Supervision and Inspection Institute that one of the characteristics of domestic appraisal agencies is that they are not distinguished by size, as long as they have appraisal qualifications. Have authentication rights. 'Currently, there is no appraisal institution whose certificate is recognized as the most authoritative in the jewelry market.'　　　　 For third-party appraisal agencies, appraisal fees are the most important income. In the gold and jewelry market, it is an open secret that several appraisal agencies compete for appraisal business. Therefore, it is not difficult for manufacturers to obtain an authentication certificate.　　　　3. Consumers' awareness of rights protection has increased. 　　　　 'More and more citizens are holding gold jewelry for identification.' The staff of the Municipal Quality and Technical Supervision and Inspection Institute in charge of gold jewelry testing said that citizens' awareness of rights protection is getting stronger and stronger.　　　　Some devices fall off, some are broken, and some are rusted. This is a frequent problem of gold jewelry. Consumers and sellers often make claims without results after repeated negotiations. Consumers usually get financial compensation after negotiating with the seller based on the quality inspection report of the authority.　　　　 It is understood that the Municipal Quality and Technical Supervision and Inspection Institute has the ability to issue identification certificates. At present, there are two ways to detect the gold content of precious metal jewelry such as gold, platinum and 18K gold: one is non-destructive testing, and the other is chemical testing. The jewelry needs to be melted off. The testing fee for gold is generally more than 70 yuan, and the testing fee for jewelry is more than 200 yuan. Relevant persons from the Municipal Quality and Technical Supervision and Inspection Institute remind consumers: When buying expensive jewelry, one must go to a regular store to buy; second, it depends on whether the product has a test certificate provided by a relatively authoritative testing agency; third, it must be timely when quality problems occur Make a complaint to a consumer rights protection agency and go to an authoritative testing agency for appraisal. Only with an authoritative and accurate appraisal report can you better protect your rights and interests.　　　　 The above is the information about gold jewelry summarized by the author for you.
