Your questions answered

We've compiled a list of our most frequently asked questions. If there's something we haven't covered, please call us & we'll be happy to help. Read all FAQs.

Subject to you giving us timely authorisation of payment, we will pay you on the day of receipt (Monday to Friday). 

As an internationally traded commodity, the market rate for precious metals changes minute by minute. To be transparent, we publish the live market metal prices so that you can compare our rates with the live price.

If you scroll back up this page, you'll see the rates we pay.

You will probably come across other dealers who quote their 'scrap' prices at surprisingly similar rates to the live metal price. Be very wary of sending your items to a dealer who only quotes the live price. Please remember the dealer is looking to make a profit, and they will have their overheads to cover. You will never receive the live metal price for scrap gold, silver, platinum or palladium from any dealer.

If you read their small print very carefully, you'll likely discover that the 'price' they quote online isn't a genuine indication of what you're likely to receive. These dealers can offer you between 40% - 60% of the actual value of your items.

For total transparency, we're currently paying 89.9% of spot for scrap gold / jewellery and 94.8% for Sovereigns.
