Questions
How It Works FAQ
How long does the whole process take?
Most sellers are paid within a few days. Quotes usually go out within one business day, your label arrives by email within one business day of accepting, and we test your package the day it arrives.
Who pays for shipping?
We do. Your label is prepaid, and if you decline your final offer we ship your items back at no cost.
How should I pack my items?
Put small pieces in a zip bag, wrap the bag in paper or bubble wrap, and use a small sturdy box. Do not write “gold” or “jewelry” on the outside. Keep your drop-off receipt.
What if my items weigh less or test lower than I expected?
Your final offer is based on what we measure on video. If it differs from your estimate, we show you why on the video and send an updated offer. You can accept it or have your items returned free.
Do I need a printer?
Yes, you’ll print the prepaid label we email you on plain paper. Don’t have a printer? Reply to the label email and we’ll help.
Do you need my ID?
Yes. Federal anti-money-laundering rules require us to verify the identity of sellers before we pay. We ask for a photo of your ID before your payout.
