Ford Swift is coming to the High Desert.

Three days at the Courtyard by Marriott in Hesperia. Bring your gold, silver, jewelry, coins, and watches for a free appraisal, and get paid on the spot if you sell.

Ford, with a quick word about this weekend.

If it's stamped, bring it.

Look inside rings and on clasps for a mark like these. No mark, broken, tangled, or missing a stone? Bring it anyway. Ford tests every piece on the spot.
