The process

Nothing hidden. Ever.

Selling gold should feel like selling anything else — clear price, clear measurement, clear payout. Here's exactly how it works with us.

  1. 1

    Get an instant estimate

    Pick the estimate that suits you: a quick count-based estimate, a photo review where one of our buyers values it for you, or the full karat-and-weight calculator. No personal info required.

    Every number on the screen is broken down: spot price, purity, payout ratio. It's an estimate only — the final offer is set after physical testing.

  2. 2

    Get your prepaid FedEx label

    Enter your address and we generate a prepaid FedEx label insured up to $5,000. Print it, tape it to any small padded box, and drop it at any FedEx location.

    Shipping is free in both directions — including the insured return if you decide not to sell.

  3. 3

    Opened on video, weighed and tested

    Every package is unboxed on camera the day it arrives. We use a certified digital scale and confirm karat with acid testing plus a lab-grade XRF analyzer.

    You get the video of the weighing and testing by email before we send the final offer.

  4. 4

    Approve, get paid, or walk away

    Once you approve, choose same-day wire, check, or Zelle. Prefer to keep it? We ship everything back insured and free — no fees, no pressure.

    Our published payout ratio is 82% of daily spot. If a piece is exceptional (heavy 22–24K, collectible coin, designer), we quote above that.

A note on our pricing

Most gold buyers hide their payout ratio and negotiate down from a big-sounding number. We do the opposite — our ratio is printed on your quote and on this website. If you see a competitor offering more, bring us their written quote and we'll match or beat it, or send you back on your way with your gold.
