What are you looking to value?
Select the details you know. If purity is unclear, choose the closest hallmark or ask for professional testing.

- Weight

Read the hallmark
A small stamp can help identify purity
Look inside a ring, near a chain clasp or on the back of an item. Use the stamp only as a starting point—professional testing is still required.
Where to look
Use bright light and your phone camera zoom. Never scratch or acid-test an item yourself.

Stamps can be missing, worn or inaccurate. A hallmark alone does not prove authenticity.
Beyond metal weight
Your piece may hold more than melt value
Gemstones
Diamonds and coloured stones should be assessed separately, not ignored.
Design & craftsmanship
Wearable condition, workmanship and distinctive design can add product value.
Age & collectability
Antique or uncommon pieces may require a specialist rather than a melt-only quote.
A clearer way to sell
Three steps, with no pressure to proceed
Describe your item
Share the type, hallmark, approximate weight and any brand or gemstone details.
Receive a tested valuation
A professional checks purity, weight, condition and any value beyond the gold itself.
Choose without pressure

-
Professional testing The testing method is explained and performed with your consent.

Before accepting an offer
Check whether the quote is truly transparent
Tick each point you have confirmed directly with the buyer. Your checklist stays on this device and is not submitted.
Start checking the offer
A clear buyer should answer every point before you hand over your item.
Why offers differ
Two buyers may calculate differently
Price benchmark and timing
Buyers may use different reference markets, update times and currency conversions.
Testing, refining and operating costs
A buyer may deduct documented assay, refining, insurance or transaction costs.
Resale value beyond the metal
Brand, condition, gemstones, design and collectability may justify a specialist valuation.
Before you sell
Ask for evidence, not promises
A trustworthy buyer should be able to show a registered business identity, physical contact details, written terms, a clear privacy notice and the exact process for insured delivery or an in-person appointment.
- Business registration
- Written valuation breakdown
- Insurance and custody terms
- Local ID and payment policy

Questions, answered
Before your first valuation
Requirements vary by country. Confirm the final process with the selected local buyer.
Can I sell gold without the original receipt?
Often yes, but proof-of-ownership and identity requirements vary. A buyer may ask additional questions or decline an item if its origin cannot be reasonably verified.
Can broken or unmatched gold still be valued?
Yes. Broken chains, single earrings and damaged pieces can still carry metal value. Their condition may reduce product value but does not automatically remove their gold content.
How is gold purity tested?
Hallmarks are a starting point. Professional buyers may use electronic, XRF or carefully controlled acid testing. Ask which method will be used before consenting.
Are there valuation or selling fees?
This depends on the buyer. Request a written breakdown of any appraisal, refining, delivery, insurance or payment fee before accepting an offer.
How long does payment take?
Timing depends on local payment rules, identity checks and the selected method. In-store and bank-transfer timelines should be stated in the buyer’s written terms.
What identification will I need?
Gold buyers commonly require government-issued identification and may retain transaction records. The exact requirement must be configured for the country where the service operates.
