Sell Silver Online With The UK’s Most Trusted Silver Buyer

Yes. Your silver 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 silver is worth more than £2,500, we simply send additional insured packs or arrange a tailored collection.

No problem at all. Your silver 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 silver, whether it is a canteen of cutlery, a tea set or a collection of coins, 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 silver is yours to sell, you are free to proceed.

We ask for a minimum of 100g of sterling (925) silver so we can provide a valuation. Silver is worth considerably less per gram than gold and the other precious metals, and the cost of testing and refining to isolate the recoverable silver content stays much the same whatever the quantity. Setting a 100g minimum lets us absorb those fixed costs across a larger volume and keep paying competitive silver prices. Larger volumes give us even more flexibility, so if you are unsure whether your silver meets our minimum, just contact us and we will happily let you know.

Your silver 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 silver buyer in the UK.

You choose your payment method on the short valuation form inside your Silver 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 silver 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 silver is and what is happening next.

Our proprietary Live Price Checker™ is the system behind our valuations. It continuously benchmarks against 60+ UK silver 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 silver is valued on two things: its exact silver content and the live silver price on the day. We test every item three times on Trading Standards approved XRF equipment, confirming its true fineness, whether that is 925 sterling, 958 Britannia or 999 fine, then weigh it precisely and apply the live market price, so you are paid accurately for every gram of silver you send.

Tarnish has no impact on what your silver is worth to us. Our trading standards approved XRF testing reveals the exact silver content of your items regardless of surface tarnish, oxidation or discolouration. As a silver buyer we value your items purely on their recoverable silver content, so the condition of the piece has no bearing on the valuation you receive when you sell your silver with us.

We do not purchase silver plated items, as the recoverable silver content is negligible. To issue a valuation we require a minimum of 100g of solid 925 sterling silver, which is why our minimum is in place. If you would like to sell scrap silver, solid silver items typically carry a hallmark or a 925, 958 or 999 stamp.

No silver buyer in the UK is able to pay 100% of the live spot price, ourselves included. All UK silver buyers operate from the LBMA silver price fixes, which sit slightly below spot and provide a stable benchmark throughout the day. We pay a percentage of that price based on the volume received, as the fixed costs of isolating the recoverable silver, insurance, testing and refining, remain the same on any volume.

UK banks no longer buy silver from the public. You can sell your silver directly to us instead, using our free insured Royal Mail Special Delivery pack from anywhere in the UK, with a same day valuation on arrival and fast payment on acceptance.

You can sell silver without a hallmark, as a hallmark is not required for us to issue a valuation. Our trading standards approved XRF testing reveals the exact silver content of your items directly, and it is that tested content that forms the basis of your valuation when you sell your silver with us. We value unmarked solid silver on the same basis as hallmarked pieces.

925 silver, also known as sterling silver, is silver that is 92.5% pure with the remaining 7.5% typically copper for added strength. It is the most common standard for jewellery, cutlery and hallmarked silverware in the UK, and can usually be identified by a 925 stamp or a UK hallmark.
