Frequently Asked Questions

We buy all types of gold and silver items including jewelry (rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings), coins, bullion, dental gold, watches, and scrap. The condition doesn't matter. Broken, damaged, tangled, or mismatched items are all welcome.

We base our prices on the current live international spot price of gold and silver. We test each item to determine its purity (karat for gold, fineness for silver) and weigh it on calibrated digital scales. The price is calculated from the weight, purity, and current market rate. We show you every step of this process.

An appointment isn't strictly necessary, but we recommend getting in touch first so we can arrange a convenient time and location. This ensures we can give you our full attention and have the right equipment ready.

There's no strict minimum. Whether you have a single ring or a box full of jewelry, we're happy to assess it. Even small amounts of gold or silver have value.

Absolutely. We buy gold and silver based on their metal content, not their condition as jewelry. Broken chains, single earrings, bent rings, and damaged pieces are all worth their weight in precious metal.

We pay by bank transfer, made right in front of you. Once you accept our offer, we transfer the payment to your account on the spot. There are no fees or deductions from the agreed price.

We're flexible. You can visit us, we can meet somewhere convenient for both of us, or for larger collections we're happy to come to you. We serve Tauranga and the wider Bay of Plenty. Just get in touch and we'll arrange something that works.

We encourage you to compare our offer with others. We base our prices on live market rates and show you our entire assessment process. We're confident in offering competitive prices because fair dealing is how we build our reputation.

No problem at all. Every assessment and quote is completely free with no obligation. If our offer doesn't work for you, you simply take your items back. No pressure, no hard feelings.

Most assessments take around 15 to 30 minutes depending on the number of items. We transfer payment to your bank right in front of you.
