About five hours out
Can I just walk in?
An old brass counter service bell, tarnished and dented from long use.
The counter
Yes. Booth 57 is open Monday to Friday, 10:30 am to 5:00 pm. Walk in, no appointment needed.
Who can sell, and what do you buy?
Trade only: we buy from dealers, not the public. We buy gold (8K to 24K), silver and platinum: scrap, bench sweeps, broken stock, dental.
How is the lot tested?
A handheld XRF analyser held against a plain gold ring on a test pad.
The assay is witnessed, read on XRF, and acid tested when the lot calls for one.
How fast am I paid?
A thick plain kraft envelope, flap tucked in, lying flat.
The same day, in cash.
Can I mail it in?
No. We buy in person only, at the booth or at your shop. No shipping.
Whose risk is the lot?
One hand passing a closed suede pouch into another open hand.
The moment you hand it over, the risk is ours.
