    Sent them a gold chain by special delivery on Monday, they confirmed receipt on Tuesday morning, and the cash was in my bank account later on Tuesday evening. Fantastic!"

    Recently sent old jewellery, gold, silver etc to Gold Traders. From start to finish I found them to be very professional. They did everything they said they would do. I would highly recommend this company if you require selling your old jewellery. Many Thanks."

    Perfect! I had a bracelet I wanted to sell and after doing a lot of research, came across Gold Traders. I was a little apprehensive, but the whole process was very easy. After filling in the online form, I was given clear instructions on packing and sending. I posted the bracelet Thursday lunchtime and received a courtesy email from Gold Traders Friday morning to let me know they had received the package. Early afternoon I was invited to log into my account to see the valuation, which was very fair. I accepted and the money was in my account later that evening. I can highly recommend Gold Traders and will definitely use again."

    After apprehensively sending my gold watch chain to Gold Traders, (having never dealt with them before), I needn't have worried as the whole transaction process was simple and straightforward. Payment, as promised, was next day. I am happy to recommend anyone to Gold Traders who has unwanted gold tucked away in a drawer."

    Im very happy. The process was very simple, the communication was great and I received more money than expected due to some items being 18ct rather than 9ct as I thought. Super quick procedure too."

    Good service and would use again.
    I had reservations about using an online gold trader and spent some time researching a multitude of companies.
    Gold Traders may not offer the highest rate out there but, when taking into account the speed of service, accuracy and speed of payment, the overall package is probably one of the best out there.
    There was a minor difference in the weight of the item but I had already suspected my scales may be a gramme out and that was the case.
    I'd happily use them again.
