Sell Gold in London Through Our Postal Service

Looking to sell gold in London? Moonstone Gold offers a UK postal service for unwanted jewellery, coins and other suitable gold items. Request a free insured pack from home, send your items for assessment and receive immediate payment by bank transfer after accepting our offer.

You do not need to visit a Moonstone Gold branch to use this service. Instead, follow the supplied Royal Mail posting instructions. We explain your valuation before you decide, and we return your items free of charge if you decline.

Where Can I Sell Gold in London?

London sellers can compare local jewellers, specialist gold buyers, coin dealers and postal services. An in-person appointment may suit you if you want to discuss an item across the counter. Alternatively, our postal service lets you request a pack from home.

Before travelling to a London buyer, check its address, opening times and whether you need an appointment. Also, ask whether it buys the type of item you have. A bullion dealer and a specialist antique jeweller may approach the same collection differently.

Moonstone Gold offers London customers a postal assessment through this page. We do not arrange a London shop visit as part of that process. Instead, you send your items using the supplied Royal Mail instructions and review our offer remotely.

Compare Offers Before You Sell Gold in London

Start with the same item details for each enquiry. For example, tell each buyer the known purity, approximate weight and whether the jewellery contains stones. This makes the quotes easier to compare.

• Ask which gold weight and rate the buyer uses.
• Check whether fees or deductions reduce the payment.
• Confirm when payment follows acceptance.
• Ask what happens if you decline the valuation.
• For postal sales, check tracking, insurance and return arrangements.

Finally, ask how long the quote remains available. Gold prices can change, and an estimate may differ from a confirmed offer after assessment. A clear breakdown matters more than an unexplained headline rate.

How Our Postal Service Works

1. Request your pack: complete the form below with your contact details and information about your gold.
2. Send your items: follow the pack instructions and use the prepaid, tracked and insured Royal Mail service.
3. Review your offer: we assess the items and explain the valuation. Once you accept, we make an immediate bank transfer.

If you want to sell gold in London without visiting a buyer’s premises, this process provides a postal option. However, allow time for delivery and assessment before an offer. Immediate payment follows your acceptance of that offer.

What Types of Gold Can I Send?

You can sell gold in London through our service whether your suitable items are wearable or damaged. For example, a broken chain or a single earring can still contain valuable gold. You do not need to repair jewellery before requesting an assessment.

• Gold jewellery, including rings, necklaces, bracelets and earrings
• Scrap and broken gold, including incomplete pieces
• Gold coins and bullion bars
• Dental gold, including old crowns and bridges

If you are unsure about an item, contact us before posting. Also, tell us about valuable stones, sealed bullion packaging or any previous specialist valuation.

Checking Value Before You Sell Gold in London

Your gold’s metal value depends on its weight, purity and the applicable buying rate. For example, 9ct and 18ct jewellery contain different proportions of gold. Therefore, equal weights need different rates in a calculation.

Our gold price calculator provides an initial estimate. Enter the relevant weight and purity, but remember that stones and other non-gold components contribute weight without adding gold.

For help recognising marks, see the British Hallmarking Council’s consumer guide. However, do not guess purity from colour alone. A professional assessment can resolve unclear markings and establish the basis of an offer.

Preparing Your Items and Checking Postal Cover

First, list the pieces you intend to send and photograph them for your records. Next, set aside anything you would prefer to keep. Follow the pack instructions and protect items from moving against one another.

If you expect the value to exceed £750, list the items on the form so we can arrange the appropriate pack. Also, check the confirmed insurance limit and conditions before dispatch. Contact us first if the contents exceed the available cover.

When comparing ways to sell gold in London, include the practical posting arrangements in your decision. Keep your proof of posting and tracking details until the process finishes. Do not assume that any pack provides unlimited insurance.

How We Assess Your Gold

When you sell gold in London through our postal service, our team examines the items and assesses their weight and precious-metal content. We also review the information you provide about marks or previous valuations. Then, we explain the proposed payment for you to consider.

Our gold testing information describes assessment methods. The appropriate checks depend on the item. Therefore, ask about the process before sending jewellery with valuable stones or a finish you want to preserve.

If the result differs from your expectations, request an explanation before accepting. Ask about the purity, payable weight and any excluded components. This helps you compare the confirmed offer with your original estimate.

Sell Gold in London with Immediate Payment After Acceptance

Once you accept our offer, we make an immediate bank transfer. First, confirm the bank details needed to send your money to the correct account. You can ask any valuation questions before agreeing to proceed.

Alternatively, if you decline, we return your gold free of charge through our insured delivery service. Requesting a pack does not oblige you to sell. You remain free to consider the valuation before making your decision.
