Gold is our most specialised area.

Each piece is tested and weighed in front of you and priced against the gold rate on the day.

What shapes the offer
- Purity
- 9ct to 24ct, read from the hallmark and confirmed by test rather than assumed.
- Weight
- Weighed in front of you on a calibrated scale, with stones and clasps accounted for.
- The rate on the day
- Priced against the gold price and the rand as they stand, not a fixed table.
- Condition
- Broken, worn or unfashionable pieces are bought on their gold content. Intact coins and bars carry a premium.
Questions we are asked
- What gold do you buy?
- Krugerrands and other gold coins, bars and ingots, chains, bangles, rings, earrings, pendants and scrap in any purity from 9ct to 24ct. If it is gold, we buy it.
- Do you buy broken or unfashionable gold?
- Yes. Condition matters little for melt-value gold. An odd earring, a snapped chain or a bangle you never wear is bought on its gold content.
- How is the price worked out?
- From the purity, the weight and the gold price on the day, converted to rand. We show you the scale and the test, and there is no obligation to sell.
- How quickly am I paid?
- Once you accept the offer, payment is typically the same day. There is no obligation to sell if the figure is not right.
