Our scrap platinum rates for Thursday 10 October.
Before 1975, there was no requirement for an item of jewellery containing platinum to be hallmarked and no common standard regarding purity. Therefore, older pieces of jewellery may simply have 'plat', 'pt' or 'platinum' markings. These pieces will need to be tested by us to determine the platinum content.
There are now four accepted levels of purity for platinum, as shown in the table on the right.
Typical items we purchase that contain platinum include:
We accept all purities of platinum. Our platinum prices are the same for hallmarked and non-hallmarked items. Testing is usually completed on the day of receipt and for customers who elect to have payment into their bank account, funds are transferred by 6 pm on the same day.
Below, you can find the scrap platinum prices we're paying our customers today.

As an internationally traded commodity, the market rate for precious metals changes minute by minute. To be transparent, we publish the live market metal prices so that you can compare our rates with the live price.
If you scroll back up this page, you'll see the rates we pay.
You will probably come across other dealers who quote their 'scrap' prices at surprisingly similar rates to the live metal price. Be very wary of sending your items to a dealer who only quotes the live price. Please remember the dealer is looking to make a profit, and they will have their overheads to cover. You will never receive the live metal price for scrap gold, silver, platinum or palladium from any dealer.
If you read their small print very carefully, you'll likely discover that the 'price' they quote online isn't a genuine indication of what you're likely to receive. These dealers can offer you between 40% - 60% of the actual value of your items.
If you find prices better than ours, let us know! We'll always aim to match it or help you to spot any hidden fees that other companies may try to hide.
