The Buyback Process

Three Easy Steps to Sell with Peace of Mind

  1. Request an Appraisal
    Call us or fill out the secure form below. Tell us what you’re looking to sell. We’ll confirm next steps, answer questions, and schedule a pickup or appointment.

     

  2. Ship the metals to us or Meet In Person – Home or Office
    We verify the metals with casino style cameras or right in front of you using best in industry machines.  If doing the transaction in person we would then initiate payment right in front of you.  For larger transactions, we can issue a wire remotely from our laptop/phone or escort the metals securely to the bank where you will be paid in the presence of your metals.

     

  3. Receive Your Payment
    Once verified, we pay by same-day wire, check, or cash (depending on value and state law). For larger orders, same-day wire transfer at the bank is standard.
