As the UK’s political system remains paralysed over Brexit this summer, the price of gold remains elevated. As a result, it might just prove to be the perfect time to consider selling any scrap gold you have.
Gold prices typically rise in times of political and economic turbulence, so your scrap gold could be worth substantially more than it used to be. That old family heirloom might be gathering dust on your shelf, when it could help you make a respectable amount of cash.
Reasonable prices for your scrap gold
With UK Scrap Gold, you can be sure that you will get a reasonable price for your scrap gold. We base our pricings on the London Gold Fix, the standard metric by which to value gold in the markets. Check out our Live Gold Prices tracker, to see how the value of the precious metal fluctuates.
As of late May, it is over £1,000 per troy ounce, a level twice as high as it was in 2008, and close to its 2011 all-time high of £1,100.
We offer customers a respectable pricing for their gold – its carat or purity is a defining feature. A single gram of 9 carat scrap gold could be worth as much as £11.64 as of May 2019, higher than a great deal of other scrap gold specialists currently offer.
What gold can I sell?
Got an item with some gold, but unsure if it’s worth selling? Perhaps it’s a ring, with gemstones inlaid? Or maybe it’s simply a piece of broken scrap gold? That’s not a problem. UK Scrap Gold is happy to help you.
