There is no one-fit answer to this question. The most appropriate response is one you probably don’t want to hear; it depends. Several factors go into the price of a chain. They include the length of the chain, type of metal used, the style of the chain, and even its thickness. Chains made of platinum metal are the most expensive necklaces, followed by gold and silver necklaces. As for thickness, thicker necklaces are more costly than thin chains. Silver chains could fetch from $100 to hundreds of dollars in the market. The gold chain will sell as several hundreds of dollars and probably thousands.
