Sending platinum through the post should feel certain, not stressful. We non-destructively test and value your platinum the day it arrives, with payment sent within 20 minutes of you accepting our valuation. Our Live Price Checker™ tracks what over 60 UK platinum buyers are paying in real time, so we can stay ahead of them, all backed by our Price Match Guarantee.
Order your free Platinum Selling Pack. It has everything you need to sell your platinum with us, including a prepaid, fully insured Royal Mail Special Delivery envelope. We’re partnered with Royal Mail so you can post your platinum via the UK’s most secure postal service, tracked from the Post Office counter to our vault and insured up to £2,500*.
Every item is tested on Trading Standards approved XRF equipment, three separate times, to read its platinum content precisely, down to the microgram. It’s completely non-destructive, so nothing is melted, scratched or altered, and a missing or worn hallmark makes no difference. You don’t need to know your platinum’s purity either, as we accurately identify the metal and fineness for you, and you’re never paid a penny less for items that aren’t hallmarked.
XRF (X-ray fluorescence) reveals the exact purity of your platinum without damaging it in any way. Our triple-XRF process removes estimation and guesswork entirely, so your valuation is based on the true, measured platinum content of your item. In rare cases where an item needs further verification, any destructive testing is only ever carried out with your explicit consent, never without it. We’re also always happy to share your XRF analysis evidence on request, so you can see exactly what your items are. You’re always paid for your purity.
Send your item exactly as it is, and stones stay set in place. Significant gemstones are valued at live market rates and added to your offer. For smaller stones, our valuers (over 75 years’ combined experience) deliberately over-estimate the stones’ weight and value the platinum around them, so you’re never short-changed. And if those stones weigh less than we allowed for, that difference is ours to absorb, never yours.
There’s never an obligation to sell with us. If you’ve changed your mind for any reason, your platinum is returned to you immediately via fully insured, tracked Royal Mail Special Delivery, exactly the way it arrived. No fees, no questions asked, and no awkward conversations.
We’re the only UK platinum buyer to keep you informed automatically at every stage. Through our direct partnership with Royal Mail, you’ll receive SMS and email updates the moment your pack enters the postal network, again when your platinum has been securely logged under 24/7 CCTV at our facility, and once more the moment your valuation is ready.
We never want a customer to feel surprised. So before you sell platinum with us, here are clear answers to the questions we hear most: how we work out what your platinum is worth, how we pay the best platinum prices, how your platinum is insured, and what happens if you change your mind.
Scrap platinum simply means platinum that is valued on its weight and purity rather than its design or brand, so it is never a sign your platinum is worthless. It covers broken chains, odd earrings, old or unwanted jewellery, coins, bars and bullion and any purity from 850 to fine (999), hallmarked or not. Whatever form it takes, we test its exact platinum content and pay the highest platinum prices in the UK.
We are the only UK platinum buyer that continuously monitors the wider market. Our Live Price Checker™ compares 60+ platinum buyers daily so we consistently pay the best platinum prices, more than the collective average, and in the rare event you've received a higher valuation elsewhere, we will match or beat it.
Changed your mind? No problem. We return your platinum completely free and fully insured. There is never any obligation to sell with us.
Each item of platinum is XRF tested three times on Trading Standards approved equipment for a precise reading down to the microgram. The test is non destructive and reveals exactly what your platinum is made of, so broken, mixed or unhallmarked platinum makes no difference.
You send your platinum in the pre-paid envelope inside your Pack, using the UK's most trusted and secure postal service, Royal Mail Special Delivery™. Your items reach us by 1pm the following day, and we'll send a same day valuation with payment released immediately once you accept.
We ask for a minimum of 10 grams of platinum content before we can provide a valuation. Refining platinum carries the same fixed costs whether a pack is large or small, which is simply how the industry works, so a minimum lets us operate sustainably and keep paying the best platinum prices.
We benchmark our platinum prices against 60+ UK platinum buyers twice a day, so you get the highest price for your platinum, without shopping around. Here’s why you should sell platinum with us.
Our platinum prices are benchmarked against 60+ UK platinum buyers twice a day, so you are consistently paid the highest price for platinum without shopping around.

Everything you need to understand what your platinum is worth, how its value is set, and the simple, secure way to sell platinum with us.
No, platinum is not currently worth more than gold, despite being considerably rarer. At the time of writing, gold sits at around £3,122 per troy ounce while platinum is around £1,241 per troy ounce. Historically platinum often traded above gold, but since around 2015 it has consistently traded below it.
Platinum is cheaper than gold today largely because of shifts in industrial demand and investment flows. Much of platinum's demand comes from car manufacturing, and as diesel vehicle production fell, so did demand, while investment money flowed more heavily into gold. Despite platinum being far rarer, this has kept its price below gold.
Selling platinum with us is simple. Order your free Platinum Selling Pack, which arrives the very next day and contains everything you need, including our prepaid, fully insured Royal Mail Special Delivery envelope, so you can send your platinum using the UK's most trusted postal service. It reaches us by 1pm the following day, and we always reach out with a same day, no obligation valuation. Once accepted, payment is released automatically and instantly to the method you selected on the valuation form you complete and return alongside your platinum.
You can sell a platinum ring quickly and securely with us through the post. After ordering your free Platinum Selling Pack and sending your ring in our prepaid, fully insured envelope, we use trading standards approved XRF testing to accurately determine its exact composition, so you are paid for every microgram. Even if your ring is old, damaged, broken, unhallmarked, or simply unwanted, we buy it at genuinely competitive prices.
Yes, platinum holds strong resale value as one of the world's rarest precious metals. Its worth is based on its live market price and purity, currently around £39.90 per gram, which puts the value of a typical piece into perspective. As with all precious metals, that price moves with the market, but platinum always retains a genuine underlying value.
Selling platinum coins with us is straightforward and secure. Order your free Platinum Selling Pack, then post your coins to us in the prepaid, fully insured Royal Mail Special Delivery envelope provided. We use trading standards approved XRF testing to confirm their precise platinum content, so your valuation is completely accurate. Whether your coins are bullion issues or simply unwanted, we pay strong, competitive rates based on their live market value.
Platinum coins can be an appealing option for investors drawn to a metal that is around thirty times rarer than gold. Like other precious metals, platinum can rise over the long term, though it tends to be more volatile than gold and has at times traded below it. It suits those comfortable with price swings in exchange for exposure to a genuinely scarce metal.
Yes, you can sell platinum easily and securely with us. We buy platinum in all forms, including rings, coins, bars, jewellery, and scrap, whether it is hallmarked or not. After XRF testing your items to confirm their exact composition, we pay competitive rates based on the live platinum market, with fast, automatic payment once your valuation is accepted.
You can sell platinum jewellery securely by post with us. Order your free Platinum Selling Pack, send your pieces in the prepaid, fully insured Royal Mail Special Delivery envelope, and we will test them using trading standards approved XRF equipment to confirm their exact platinum content.

Looking to sell platinum? Our friendly valuations team are on hand to talk you through the process.
Ask us your questionYes. Your platinum is sent using Royal Mail Special Delivery, the UK's most secure postal service, fully tracked and insured up to £2,500. The moment your parcel reaches us it is logged under 24/7 CCTV at our secure facility, and you are updated at every stage by email and SMS. If your platinum is worth more than £2,500, we simply send additional insured packs or arrange a tailored collection.
No problem at all. Your platinum is returned to you free of charge and fully insured whenever you would prefer to keep it. There is never any obligation to sell, and you are never charged a penny to have your items back.
Yes, absolutely. Inherited platinum, whether it is a platinum wedding ring or engagement ring, platinum jewellery or scrap platinum, it is treated no differently from any other items. Our valuation form simply includes a declaration of ownership that you complete before sending your pack in, so as long as the platinum is yours to sell, you are free to proceed.
We ask for a minimum of 10g of platinum before we can provide a valuation. The cost of testing and refining platinum to isolate its recoverable content stays much the same whatever the quantity, so a 10g minimum lets us absorb those fixed processing costs while continuing to pay competitive platinum prices. Larger volumes give us even more flexibility, so if you are unsure whether your platinum meets our minimum, just contact us and we will happily let you know.
Your platinum reaches us by 1pm the following day when sent by Royal Mail Special Delivery, we test and value it the same day it arrives, and payment is released the moment you accept your valuation, straight to your bank. We offer the fastest payments of any online platinum buyer in the UK.
You choose your payment method on the short valuation form inside your Platinum Selling Pack. Most people pick bank transfer, our fastest and most secure option, with funds usually reaching your account immediately through the UK's Faster Payments System. You can also choose PayPal, a posted cheque, or cash sent by Royal Mail Special Delivery. Whichever you pick, payment is released the moment you accept.
Yes. We are the only platinum buyer in the UK to provide live updates by both email and SMS at every stage of your journey, from the Post Office counter to our secure vault, through to your valuation and payment. You will always know exactly where your platinum is and what is happening next.
Our proprietary Live Price Checker™ is the system behind our valuations. It continuously benchmarks against 60+ UK platinum buyers throughout the day to make sure we consistently pay above the collective market average. It does the shopping around for you, and it is exactly why our Price Match Guarantee is so rarely needed.
Your platinum is valued on two things: its exact platinum content and the live platinum price on the day. We test every item three times on Trading Standards approved XRF equipment, confirming its true fineness, whether that is 850, 900, 950 or 999 platinum, then weigh it precisely and apply the live market price, so you are paid accurately for every gram of platinum you send.
The price of platinum today is £39.90 per gram. Platinum is also commonly quoted per troy ounce, which currently sits at £1,241, as this is the standard unit used across global precious metal markets. Platinum prices move constantly throughout the day, driven by supply, demand, and wider market conditions, so the live figure is always the most accurate reference point when valuing your items.
The value of a platinum ring depends on its weight and purity, with platinum currently worth £39.90 per gram. To value a ring accurately, we XRF test every item in your Platinum Selling Pack three times as standard, ensuring we capture its exact composition so you are paid for every gram of platinum present. We also offer highly competitive rates because we continuously benchmark more than 60 other UK platinum buyers each day, ensuring the figure we send with your valuation sits above the collective market average.
There are no guarantees that the price of platinum, or any precious metal, will rise, as prices always move with the wider market. That said, platinum has consistently held its value and currently presents an opportune moment to sell, particularly as there is no certainty it will move quickly back towards its historic highs. Selling while prices remain strong allows you to realise that value now rather than waiting on an uncertain market.
