How it works
Three Simple Steps
Send Your Quote, Photos or Visit
Send an existing quote and photographs before travelling, or bring your items to our Church Street counter.
Free Valuation
We inspect, test and weigh your items and explain how the offer has been calculated.
Decide and Get Paid
There is no obligation to sell. If you accept, same-day payment is available by cash or bank transfer.
Transparent pricing
Spot Price vs Your Gold Offer
We use the live gold spot price as a market benchmark when valuing your items, but it is not a guaranteed payout rate. Your offer depends on the item's carat, verified weight, condition, authenticity, refining costs, handling, market movement and dealer margin.
We test and weigh your gold in front of you, explain the rate we are working from, and show how your offer is calculated before you decide whether to sell.
