  • Mon 2 Feb : Due to unprecedented volatility within the precious metal markets, refineries have temporarily stopped accepting ALL metals for processing. As a result, we are unable to purchase scrap over the next few days. We therefore recommend that you DO NOT send us your scrap gold or silver to us, as we’re unable to offer you what we consider a fair price. At this time, we don’t have any indication as to how long this situation will last, but it is likely to last at least a week - when we have further information, this notice will be updated. We continue to purchase bullion products (bars and coins). BULLION PURCHASES FROM US ARE UNAFFECTED. WE CONTINUE TO SHIP ORDERS FOR NEXT DAY DELIVERY AND ALSO CONTINUE TO OFFER OUR ‘CLICK & COLLECT’ SERVICE FROM OUR ROYAL WOOTTON BASSETT OFFICE. IF AN ITEM IS AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE ON OUR WEBSITE, IT’S IN-STOCK AND READY TO SHIP.

    I can highly recommend this company came across Gold Traders whilst looking for a company that would give me a good return on a gold item I had no use and they came up with the best quote. The exchange went flawlessly from start to finish and the money was in my bank within a couple of hours of their given quote via an email."

    Anthony Ellis

  • "5.0 out of 5
    Highly Recommended! The application process was very easy and payment was within a few days of posting straight into bank account.

    The final amount was more than the quote with no quibbles for a broken scrap necklace including some small bits and dust. Very good rate paid.

    Very impressed, would definitely use again and recommend to anyone. Thank you!"

    Alison Holding

  • "5.0 out of 5
    I was a little apprehensive at the prospect of selling some valuables on line; where to start and who to conduct business with. I opted for Gold Traders UK having researched the company background and read some of the overwhelmingly positive experiences of other users. I was not disappointed.
    From an initial telephone conversation with an advisor through to payout a mere 24 hours later, the company exemplified professionalism. The selling process is straightforward, with the overarching offer to contact the Company at any stage should there be queries. Delighted with the service and have no hesitation in recommending them to other potential users."

    I was a bit apprehensive about selling my gold, especially online. However, Gold Traders are very transparent with their pricing and the process is easy to follow. I sent my package as instructed, received an email to let me know the package was delivered, another email with the valuation (my scales being domestic were not quite as accurate) the value was only a small amount less than estimated. Payment made next day! All very easy! My concerns were unfounded."

  • "5.0 out of 5
    Several 9 carat gold items of jewellery and one 18 carat gold ring were sent to Gold Traders for a valuation with a view to selling. After testing the items were found to be worth slightly more than the original estimate. The new price for the sale was sent by email. The whole process was made easy by the online information and instructions. The website was very easy to navigate and every step went exactly as stated. An excellent price was given and the sale went ahead on the same day that the items were received. An excellent experience and really fast processing from beginning to end. This is the third time of using Gold Traders to sell gold jewellery. They provide an excellent service and always give a very good and fair. Price. A reliable and trustworthy company. Highly recommended."

    Michael Pearson

  • "5.0 out of 5
    I did lots of research and this company was pretty transparent on what you would get for jewellery sent in. I had a good idea on the value of most of my gold by weight from valuations and some items of which I had some idea. They came back with the correct value as per their website quote and few item were a bit more for gold with I had undervalued. Communications was excellent and we were paid as soon as we accepted the quote. Do not be fooled by other companies which send fancy prepaid envelopes and folders with promises of the highest prices yet they will not give guide quotes on the website. This company is worthy of its reviews and we were totally satisfied with the outcome."

Above and beyond your expectations."

    Anthony Parsons

  • "5.0 out of 5
    Gold Traders in Bodmin came up on my google search. As I had some gold that I wanted to sell I went to them. I didnt know what to expect as I have never done this before. As soon as we entered the premises they were friendly and engaged with us straight away. There was no waiting and the gentleman that dealt with us was extremely knowledgeable and was happy to answer questions. The whole process was very straightforward, no pressure if we didnt want to sell. The price they gave for the items was very fair as I had checked with a few buyers beforehand. Once we had agreed a price the money was in our account within 10 minutes. I would highly recommend Gold Traders in Bodmin, they made everything so easy and straightforward. Would definitely go back to them and have no hesitation in recommending them to family and friends.

I was a bit nervous of sending through the post, but all went smoothly and final quote came in at 365, due to the weight being slightly higher than I applied. Payment came same day. Very pleased."

I had previously rung a couple of traders for prices for that days trading and Gold Traders quotes were the best. I sent my items to Karen in Bodmin who looked after me extremely well. As good as her word, after receiving my gold items the next day sending by Royal Mail, special delivery, Karen rang me with the prices.

    An excellent and efficient service from Gold Traders. I had initially sent my gold to one of the top free post services. Thankfully I discovered Gold Traders before I received their valuation! The other company offered me about 60% of the value, as soon as I stated I had a valuation from Gold Traders they matched the valuation immediately. I have since sold more gold with Gold Traders and have received excellent prices, for some items more than was originally quoted! Payment received on the same day.

They gave the best (equal) quote and were very polite and efficient to deal with. Went there in person. Payment came through to my bank within a couple of hours. Good communiation throughout.

    I had a range of American silver flatware to sell. From first enquiry to receiving payment communication was excellent. Advice on packing and sending was really useful. I received a very fair quote which I accepted and the payment was in my bank account the same day. Would definitely use this service again and also happy to recommend it."

    Does exactly what it says on the tin. Crucially the rate quoted on line is what you get. In fact they paid me more than I expected because their weight was higher than mine. From onlne quote to receiving cash in my account the next day was impressive. Can't fault it.

    The sale of various gold jewellery at their premises was very straightforward and the price given matched that quoted on the website. All the staff were very helpful and took the time to explain the process of valuing the differing gold carats.
    I would highly recommend Gold Traders and will return with more items."

    Having never sold any gold or jewellery before, we looked at a number of dealers, Gold traders uk ltd stood out as being the one we should try, we popped in to find a few people waiting, but were informed that it should not be too long before we would be served, I could over hear the staff were very informative and clearly knew their trade, we were pleasantly surprised with the amount we received for our gold etc. If you are looking for honest / very clear / genuine people to deal with, look no further."

    My second dealing with Gold Traders UK Ltd. Extremely positive experience. I had some 9 and 18 carat, which I had identified, but sent 3 other pieces which I thought may be costume jewellery. Gold Traders told me 2 was 9 carat and another 18 carat, which significantly boosted the sim I anticipated. Great company to deal with, done and paid within 24 hours. I highly recommend to anyone considering selling surplus/broken gold."

    This is the first time I have used this firm. I had come across a small amount of pre 1947 silver coins and went on their site to start the process of finding their value. They came back with a value and a simple guide as to how to proceed. The next morning after I had sent off the coins I had a courtesy text to assure me the package had arrived and later that day an email confirming the amount they would pay which was only a minimal variation from their original quote. I put this down to possibly a slight variation on the up to date price of silver combined with my estimate of the weight involved on my fairly basic scales.
    All in all, I was very impressed with how this firm operates and can recommend them."

    I cant say enough about Gold Traders UK, l have reviewed them on Trust pilot too, so they are the most transparent company l have had ever dealt with they do exactly as they say, they are honest unlike other gold buyers l contacted. The professionalism from the lady l first spoke to was 5* she was not only knowledgable but, had all the answers to my questions. Gold Traders are without a shadow of doubt the best gold or precious metal trader to trust. They kept me in the loop all the way to the exceptional valuation to the cash going into my account, if there was a 6* they would get my vote well done GOLD TRADERS."

    Utterly awesome dealings with GT. I only had a wedding band to sell, absolutely no issue with small amounts (unlike some others online). The whole process was smooth, pleasant and honest. I had been given a price of 242 at my local Ramsdens. GT had quoted 462, but paid me 473 due to a slight uptick in gold prices over 24 hours (thanks Trump!). What a refreshing approach. Please do not hesitate in using their services. Brilliant!"

  • "5.0 out of 5
    Fantastic company. It says something about the world we live in when you are surprised to encounter efficiency and honesty but with these folks I did. My kitchen scales under calculated the weight of my broken jewellery by a large margin and I really would have been none the wiser and a less honest dealer would have just paid me what I expected and pocket the difference. Not GT though: they told me the true weight and paid me more than I was originally quoted. I can see why they are the only dealer approved by Trading Standards. Really restored my faith in human nature. Thank you GT. Ill be recommending you and definitely will use you again."

    I recently sold some gold rings to Gold Traders and was impressed from start to finish. The process was straightforward and the company kept me informed throughout. Payment was swift and trouble free. Even better, having also sold a ring to a jeweller (who advised me to sell my other jewellery to a bullion dealer), was the price offered, which was at the top end of what I had expected. I recommend them and would definitely use them again."

    I couldnt believe how quick and easy it was to use their services and I was staggard to see how much I got. I did make a mistake in filling out the form (under weight entered) but I rang and they were very helpful and it is all checked with the final weigh in. I have mentioned them to friends as the GO TO gold people. We found a few other bits so will be back. Thank you so much."

    Gold Sold: An accumulation of gold jewellery and broken chains, mainly 9ct and some 18ct all sat in the draw never to be worn again. My research led me to Gold Traders. The on- line calculator was very easy to use. Flabbergasted at the value offered, so we travelled 2 hours to Royal Wootton Bassett office. An even higher value reached on the day as they highlighted that I also had a 15ct item. The service was excellent, very professional, a quick and easy experience and payment made overnight. I would definitely use GT again and even try the postal system next time."

  • "4.7 out of 5
    The process was easy and expedient. Being local with the funds transferred to me within a few hours was on this occasion of more value than a slightly lower price for gold bullion available from a couple of online dealers who can take up to 5 days or more to pay out after you have posted and insured your package.
    The service was great during a pre sale telephone call and at their premises. Would use again."
