Our Directors are Ashley Faull and Ian Corica - two well established business men with the highest levels of honesty and integrity. Ian has been trading in jewellery and precious metals for over thirty years and has three shops on the South Coast. These include the high end jewellery shop 'Michael Matthews Jewellery' in Bournemouth from which he has generated an excellent reputation and many thousands of happy customers. Ashley has extensive, award-winning experience in launching TV channels, including The Discovery Channel, Living, Bravo, Bid TV and Price - Drop TV. He co-created a TV retail business which was proud to have over three million satisfied customers in the UK and to have sold over £120 million of gold jewellery and millions of other products. These channels won many awards including 'TV retailer of the year' for Price-drop TV and the business was eventually sold to Virgin Media. There is a brief video and more information about our Directors in the 'About Us' section.

The highly respected Anne Diamond is the presenter of Postgoldforcash.com's television advert (featured on our Home Page) and also our 'How to do it' video.

Yes, you must be at least 18.

Please send your gold and any other items in the clear padded bag and Royal Mail Special Delivery envelope provided in our Postgoldforcash Pack along with your 'Itemised List'.

Yes - providing you use the Royal Mail Special Delivery "Tamper Proof Envelope" and the protective padded bag issued with the Postgoldforcash Pack which we send you.

This package is tracked from the Post Office of your choice until delivery with us. Over 99% of these packages will be received the very next working day. Your items are fully insured by the Royal Mail against loss or damage in transit for up to £500. In the very unlikely event that your parcel shows any sign of tampering or damage, we will refuse delivery in order for you to validate your claim against the Royal Mail.

No problem, simply tick a circle on the back of the Royal Mail Special Delivery envelope to increase the insurance level to £1,000 or £2,500. You will have to pay £1 - £3 for this extra insurance at the Post Office, but we will refund this when we buy your gold. If your items could be worth more than £2,500 then please send them in separate Royal Mail Special Delivery envelopes - call us on 0844 544 9000 to request another Postgoldforcash Pack.

No problem. Simply fill in our 'Itemised List' with what you do know, and we will do the rest. On receipt of your items, our expert valuers will establish any different gold grades and value them accordingly. Unlike many of our competitors, we do NOT pay a lower rate for unhallmarked gold.

No, we buy the items in order to melt them down so their condition does not matter.

When your package arrives we follow a step by step process:

• We identify your unique customer reference number
• Your package is then opened by our valuers who are recorded under close up CCTV surveillance, and its contents checked against the 'Itemised List' you filled in.
• The valuers will separate different metals and grades of metals, acid testing where necessary and will weigh them in order to establish the total value of your items.
• You will then be contacted with an offer. If you accept the offer, we will agree with you which of our payment methods (as described below) you prefer.
• Should you decide not to accept our offer, your items will be returned to you at our cost. So we are confident you will like our offer!

The above procedures are followed to protect all parties in the transaction. Should a discrepancy ever arise, we can then refer back to our CCTV footage.

Because gold prices change several times a day our offer is valid until 5.00pm on the day it is made. We are happy to offer again based on the daily price the next day.

No, we do not..

Please see the 'What we buy' section on this website but essentially we buy all types of gold, silver or platinum as well as Diamonds.

Precious metals are weighed in Troy ounces which equate to 31.1035 grams per Troy ounce.

Don't worry If your home scales aren't accurate enough - most kitchen scales are unlikely to be fully accurate. Checking against your 'Itemised List', our valuers will weigh your gold using highly accurate electronic scales as approved by HM Weights and Measures Act 1985. We can notify you of the exact weight when making our offer. Weights and grades of Gold will also be listed in the payment receipt we will send you.

We offer a wide selection of payment options. All payments are made Monday - Friday and no later than the working day after you accept our offer.

1. Cash via Post Service. We can send you cash to anywhere in the UK via Royal Mail Special Delivery, an insured service by the Royal Mail. If you wish to use this service, we will charge you a £5 postage fee to pay for this cash via Post Service, and we need to deduct 2.5% from our offer price to cover our extra administration costs in handling cash. We will send you the cash in British Bank notes and £1 or £2 coins, with the amount rounded down to the nearest whole pound. For example, if you accept an offer of £289 for your items and want to use this cash service, we will deduct the £5 postage fee and £7.22 for the administration fee and round it down to £276 which is what you will receive in cash. The cash will be sent in a secure and insured envelope and will need to be signed for at your address. Over 99% of these will arrive the very next working day. We will only send cash to the original address that we sent the Postgoldforcash Pack to, and we may require proof that the named person appears on the Electoral Register for that address. Once the cash has been delivered and signed for, our obligations have been fulfilled and we will not be liable if it then goes missing or does not reach you. For this reason, we suggest that you only use this Cash via post service if you know and trust everyone who lives at the address to which we are sending the cash.
2. Direct bank transfer to your Account. We can pay straight into the account of your choice in the UK, with funds leaving our account the day after you agree to our offer. There is no charge for this service. We will send you a payment receipt confirming the money has been transferred.
3. Same Day bank transfer - Guaranteed same day transfer from our Bank account into your designated account, as long as the transfer is made in accordance with the Bank's deadlines. If you require the funds to be in your account the same working day as they leave our account, a £28 fee is charged, which will be agreed with you in advance. We will send you a payment receipt confirming when the money has been transferred.
4. Cheque. We can send you a cheque by first class post the next working day after you have agreed to our offer - at no charge to you. We will send you a payment receipt along with the cheque to the same address to which we sent the Postgoldforcash Pack.

We regularly monitor the "Gold Fix" (twice daily) and adjust our price accordingly to ensure that we offer a very competitive price alongside our fantastic service. Our aim is to build a sustainable long term business, largely based on our customers referring their friends and relatives to us - so providing a highly competitive price is in our long term interests.

When we post cash through Royal Mail, we insure it and are charged almost £5 by the Royal Mail for this service.

We pay a £10 customer referral fee for each new customer who spends over £100. Please see more details contained in this website

Yes. They are all customers who have sold items to us - all of them received cash.

Unfortunately once you accept our offer, your gold and other items may be sent immediately for melting down. So, it is not possible to change your mind once you have agreed to sell. We are happy for our offer to remain open until 5pm each working day in case you need time to think about it or talk it over with someone. You can always leave it until the next day, but we will then have to revise our offer based on the latest Gold Price which could have moved up or down. You will get the benefit if the price has been increased, but the offer will be lower if it has decreased.

If we fail to contact you, we will return the items to you at our cost. This will be within 5 working days of us last trying to contact you.

Please submit the simple contact form on the home page of this website and we will send you a new Postgoldforcash Pack, or alternatively call us on 0844 544 9000 to order a new pack.

Please call us on 01202 666249 and we will send you a new Postgoldforcash Pack which includes YOUR customer reference number so we can pay you £10 as a thank you when your friend or relative becomes a new customer and sells us items for over £100.

This is absolutely fine, we are happy to return any specific items and buy the other items you still wish to sell.

We will make offers for substantial diamonds and gemstones in prime condition. However as we focus on the re-cycling of gold, platinum and silver, there is no payment for items which include small or bad conditioned stones. If you would like to keep diamonds or gemstones then we would advise you to remove these before sending them in to us.
