Quality of gold filled and gold plate jewelry?

I am looking to buy somme earrings on ebay. I notice a lot of earring are either gold filled for gold plated. What do I need to know about this material, in terms of quality? Will gold filled or gold plated tarnish or change color over time? I know, I am not paying for solid gold; however, is GF or GP worth the less price or don’t buy at all?

Only buy gold plate if you’re looking for a costume jewelry piece (same goes for gold vermeil). The layer of gold is VERY thin over a base metal and will wear away on a piece you wear often. Gold fill is much more durable and holds up very well. If it is 14/20 gold fill, that means that 20% is 14kt gold. The gold is on the outside and the core (“fill”) is usually brass. I have many gold fill pieces I’ve had for years, cleaning many times, and they still looking wonderful.
