Before you sell
What you can sell
We buy gold that can be weighed and tested at 55 Hatton Garden: broken chains, single earrings, rings, bracelets, dental gold, workshop scrap, sovereigns, Britannias, Krugerrands and minted or cast bars.
Hallmarked and unhallmarked pieces are both accepted. A 375, 585, 750 or 916 stamp is a useful starting point. The payable purity is the one we measure, not the stamp alone.
How an offer is calculated
There are three different numbers. The spot reference is the live market price of fine gold. The buying rate is that reference after our margin, expressed for a purity such as 9ct or 18ct. The estimated offer is payable weight multiplied by the buying rate for that purity. We do not apply purity a second time to a rate that is already adjusted.
Stones, steel springs and base-metal clasps are not payable weight. Two items that both “weigh 10 grams” can therefore produce different offers.
The figure on the website is an estimate. It is confirmed only after the metal is in front of us, tested, and you accept. If the live feed is unavailable, the page says so rather than showing a made-up rate.
What to bring
Bring photo identification and proof of address from the last three months, plus the items themselves. Mixed jewellery in one bag is fine; we sort it by test result.
Payment, when you accept, is same-day Faster Payments or cash. Appointments are available if you want a booked slot, and walk-ins are taken during the published hours: Mon–Fri 11:00–17:00 and Sat 11:00–15:00.
Before you come
Questions
Do you charge any fees?
The offer already includes our buying margin. We do not add a separate counter fee on top of the figure we show you.
What ID do I need?
Please bring photo ID and proof of address dated within the last 3 months.
How fast is payment?
Same-day bank transfer by Faster Payments, or cash. You choose.
How do you test?
Acid and XRF testing are done in front of you. We explain the reading and which weight is payable.
What if my jewellery has no hallmark?
An absent or worn hallmark does not stop a sale. The test result, not the stamp, sets the purity we pay on.
Do stones count in the weight?
No. Diamonds, gems and non-gold fittings are removed from the payable weight. You can take stones away with you.
Is a scrap price the same as a coin or bar price?
No. Scrap is paid on the verified fineness of mixed metal. Recognisable bullion is assessed on fine gold content and condition, which is usually closer to the spot reference.
What if I decline the offer?
You keep the items. Nothing is melted or retained unless you accept the figure and complete the sale.
Is the calculator the amount I will be paid?
No. The calculator is an estimate from the published buying rate. The confirmed offer uses the weight and purity checked at the counter.
