    I have a silver atarah that I personally dont like. I would like to sell it or trade it in. Any idea where/how I would go about doing this?

    Or, just put it back wherever you stole it from.

    (hmm, first post here, username is random characters and numbers)

    A used atarah has little value. Just buy a new one, and maybe the store owner will agree to call it a “trade-in” and take some money off just to make the sale.

    actually I received the atarah as a gift and the edges are very sharp and they have caused the tallis to fray. but thanks for the unprovoked rechilus, much appreciated.

    @DaasYochid

    I was thinking maybe a silver store would have more value for it?

    Maybe a jeweler can smooth the edges. I don’t know if they are anti-tarnish treated, and if it can be re-treated.

    I am not aware that silver stores sell ataros, I thought in Judaica stores. Unless there’s a market for used ataros, you’ll only get paid according to the weight of the silver (and not 100%).

    This is probably your best bet.

    A silver store might give you the melting price. I have a broken becher that I took in to be repaired but it was too damaged. So I asked about selling it. The price was a lowball so i just kept it instead.

    @DaasYochid Thats an idea, I really like how they look, I just dont like what they are doing to my Tallis! plus it actually scratched my face over pesach!

    @Popa_bar_abba Thanks for the apology. Appreciated. Btw my username is letters and numbers because i’m not creative enough to come up with a good one! 🙂

    @baruchderrin

    I’m new to the coffee room, how do I contact you directly?

    We don’t allow it on this forum.

    So is there anyway for us to exchange personal messages? Can we pass them through the mods?

    The best bet will be to sell it privately. Otherwise you’ll nd up selling it for scrap.
