Sell gold for cash

Don't Get Shortchanged by 'Free' Envelope Services or Valuation Roadshows

Whether you choose our convenient postal service or prefer to visit us face-to-face in Royal Wootton Bassett or Bodmin, you'll always get a fair, transparent deal. Unlike so-called 'free' envelope services, or travelling gold valuation roadshows, that often promise convenience but deliver below-market payouts, we believe in keeping everything clear from the start, so you can sell your gold with confidence.

    I am really impressed with this company. They have been professional, honest and kept me informed every step of the way, and their website is really easy to use. I sold some scrap 9 CT gold jewellery and received payment within 24 hours of posting. I would not hesitate in using this company again. Very very impressed."

    I had a lot of pre 1947 Halfcrowns, florins, Shilling etc so I filled in the online form and posted the items yesterday the 29th and they arrived this morning and my payment was deposited this afternoon. Very easy to do and very impressed with the service so I would definitely use Gold Traders again."

    I've used Gold Traders three times now and I have to say they have delivered fantastic service on every occasion. They offer great prices and the whole online process is very straightforward. Once your silver/gold etc is received their payment process is quick and seamless. I will use Gold Traders whenever I have any silver/gold to sell and would have no hesitation in recommending them. Thank you Gold Traders ?."
