Scrap Gold Wanted |
We Buy Scrap Gold |
Hallmarked Scrap
It is easier for us if you have your scrap gold properly sorted into various grades of hallmarked gold, with tested unhallmarked scrap kept separate, and properly identified.
Free Valuations
One thing we avoid is giving free valuations, otherwise all our time would be taken up providing free valuations, and we would not be able to give a good service to our valued customers, or have the time to create new ring designs, or to produce the beautiful diamond rings for which we are famous.
Because of this, we will always ask you to tell us what you already know.
If you do need a probate or disposal valuation, we will be happy to provide this for a reasonable fee.
Help Us To Help You
You, as the owner of the jewellery start off with the advantage that initially you know far more about your jewellery than we do. It is not our practice to take a ten second glance at your jewellery and value it instantly. We try to take a thorough and professional approach to appraisals, and this requires time, careful measurement and examination. For some items, we may not be the best buyer, and we will be quite happy to tell you if we think this is the case.
From long experience, we believe that the more information you can share with us initially, the quicker we can arrive at an opinion, and the more time we can spend helping you to achieve your objectives.
Please bring identification with you if calling personally at our premises, otherwise send your jewellery with an invoice, letterheading, business card, or other identification.
Percentages & Quantities
We are happy to pay 90% of intrinsic gold content for any hallmarked scrap gold from 100 grams upwards in total, and 95% or more for quantities of 1 kilo upwards. In fact we will pay up to 98% of intrinsic for melted and assayed bars, or for large volumes after melt and assay charges.
For smaller amounts, under 100 grams, or for unclean and unsorted material, we will make a deduction for sorting or testing where necessary, but will still pay upwards of 80% of intrinsic gold content, which is still at least 10% more than most of our competitors.
Don't Get Ripped Off
In recent months, we have noticed more and more advertisements from companies and individuals keen to buy scrap gold for cash.
Most of these recent start-ups use misleading and inaccurate claims in their adverts. Many give no indication of the price or percentage they actually pay, and our research shows that many of them pay no more than 50% to 60% of the actual value, and some as little as 10%, 15%, or even less.
While we would not claim to pay the absolute highest prices, we are certain that we pay more than 99% of our competitors!
What To Do Next
If you would like to send your jewellery to us, we will happily make you an offer. We would ask you to send it to us, along with all the information you have and a covering letter explaining how much you would like to get for the piece(s) and a cheque for £10. Please ensure you include your contact details, especially your telephone number as we find it a lot quicker and easier to telephone you with an offer rather than spend time writing to you! If you accept our offer we will return your £10 cheque along with a cheque for your jewellery. If you decline our offer we will use the £10 cheque to cover our costs and the cost of insured return postage.
