    This is a cheap and easy test you can do at home to test your gold jewellery if you are uncertain of its legitimacy. The test is not by any means the most accurate, but if it's all you have available to you it is worth giving it a try. All you need is some white vinegar of any brand and a container to dip your gold jewellery into.
    It does not matter whether you have yellow, white or rose gold. A legit piece of jewellery will not begin to peel into another color. Having said that it's very important to keep in mind that if the piece peels and/or changes colors its not real gold, if it doesn't do any of the previously stated things It can still possibly be a fake piece of jewellery.
    I tested 5 Chains in Total knowing in advance that only 1 was actually 18k Gold. However, the test result showed that only 1 of the chains(the last one) wasn't gold.
    The test is not reliable and the results should be questioned. However, if it's all you got It could give you a very rough idea of what it could be.

    Got me too. Today in Dallas Texas. It was a holiday so everywhere was closed, cause I was thinking he could just drive to a pawn to make way more money. I paid him 227. 2oz gold chain and 1oz gold ring. He was a good con man. I’m not a dummy and he got me. Going to suck for him when he meets my God at the white throne of judgement.

      To be honest, it sux! But you were being a little greedy only giving $227 for $2600 worth of gold. That alone should of made you realize it was fake, if he actually accepted that low. That’s crazy, that’s like selling your $100k car for $10k, it just doesn’t make sense no matter how you look at it. Sry to hear what happened though.

    Won't work on thicker plating, unless the plating isn't gold. In that case, file into an inconspicuous area and test the exposed core or shavings

    You have to expose the base metals. The vinegar really struggles to penetrate the gold layer. File a tiny spot next time.

    I have this long continuous chain and it reads up to 18k but fails at 22k and platinum. It can't be real right ?? It feels like it's hollow ??

      @GildedBlanco I did and 18k and it passed but if I put 22k acid on it it eats it right away. It definitely feels light but not really light. Have u ever seen a metal chain that can pass for 18k ? I could take a quick video of it and show you the scratch and the acid tests and show u the chain ??

      @GildedBlanco opon further inspection it's most likely aluminum. I looked up aluminum goldtone continuous chain and it looks very close. I didn't realize aluminum didn't dissolve in solutions.

    Imagine all the people got scammed by the same person lol! I got scammed too I live in LA county area, CA. He drives a SUV either white or black I cant recall, has his wife and kids. Gave me 2 rings which turned green right away and a 18k gold chain that seems legit so far. But I think ima have to make a few more test. Still I got scammed.
