Cash For Your Gold

Buying used gold and precious metals in the United Kingdom

Cash For Your Gold is a British company dedicated to buying used gold, silver, platinum and palladium, operating primarily online. It presents itself as one of the UK's largest scrap gold buyers and claims to have paid over £100 million to its customers. The company is part of Group International Ltd, with offices in Wolverhampton.

Metals and purities it buys

The company purchases gold of any purity from 9 carats upwards, as well as silver, platinum and palladium. Its online calculator allows items to be valued according to metal, purity or carats and weight in grams. For silver and platinum, purities of 500, 925, 950 and 999 are handled; for palladium, 500, 950 and 999. The catalogue shows prices per gram updated daily, with published rates for 9, 14, 18, 22 and 24 carat gold.

Sale and payment process

The procedure begins with the customer identifying the carat and weighing the items, then using the calculator to find out the estimated offer. If accepted, they fill in a description form and send the metals by Royal Mail Special Delivery with insurance. The company states that payment can be received within 24 hours by cash, FPS transfer or cheque. There is a payment processing charge that varies depending on the size and method chosen and is detailed in the shipping form. The company assures that it applies no additional commissions or refining fees.

Verification, weighing and price guarantee

Items received are weighed on precision scales accurate to one tenth of a gram, approved and compliant with Trading Standards Class 2. Purity and content are analysed using non-destructive XRF technology. The company offers the possibility of watching the weighing live via Skype video call. It also maintains a price guarantee: if the customer demonstrates that a leading competitor has offered a better rate, Cash For Your Gold undertakes to beat it.

In-person service in Wolverhampton

Although the service is provided primarily online, the company handles face-to-face transactions by appointment at its Wolverhampton offices. Access to the building requires a pre-arranged appointment for security reasons. The premises have their own parking and a customer reception area; due to security and insurance restrictions, customers cannot access the analysis and valuation areas.
