About Gold Traders UK Ltd

Key Products :


Gold-Traders (UK) Ltd has been buying gold, silver, platinum, and palladium from customers across the UK since 2008. With over 2,000 Gold Traders reviews on FreeIndex alone - plus many more on Trustpilot, Google and Facebook - our reputation speaks for itself. We are one of the most reviewed precious metals dealers in the UK, and we're proud of the score we've maintained across all platforms.

We were the first precious metals company in the UK to receive Trading Standards accreditation through the national Buy With Confidence scheme. We are also an Official Partner of The Royal Mint, and the only partner based in the South West of England. These aren't just badges - they reflect the way we have always done business.

Unlike many gold buyers, we publish both the live gold spot price and the exact rates we're paying, openly on our website. There are no hidden fees, no small print, and no pressure. You can check what your items are worth before you visit or post anything to us.

You can visit us in person at our branches in Royal Wootton Bassett, Wiltshire, or Bodmin, Cornwall - or use our postal service from anywhere in the UK. We assess every item on the day it arrives (Monday to Friday) and pay the same day, with funds typically reaching customers the same afternoon.

If you're thinking about using Gold Traders and want to read what real customers say, you'll find our full review history right here on FreeIndex, as well as on Google, Trustpilot and Facebook. Every Gold Traders review is left independently - we don't edit them or cherry-pick the best ones. We'd rather earn your trust than just claim it.

Easy process. They even paid me more than initial quote which is a result in my books! :).

We went to the bodmin branch of gold traders. Lovely people, service was excellent. Got a lot more than expected, very happy with overall experience. Definitely recommend if you need a great service.

Clearly explained on the website with current prices. Easy to use. Sent my items yesterday and just received my cash today. Quick and easy. Thank you.

Bodmin
The whole experience with gold traders was exceptional. I was so impressed with the service and the valuation. I completed the sale feeling very confident thst I had the best price. The money was in my bank before I left the premises. No pressure for me to sell, I took my time deciding before selling. The gentleman who served me was very polite and friendly. Absolutely a very good experience, I would recommend them without hesitation.

I'd researched Gold Traders thoroughly before felt confident to use and the Trading Standards accreditation certainly helped encourage me to choose them. The steps to selling were also simple to follow. In less than 24 hours I have received full payment for the items sent. It was particularly reassuring to obtain a value before committing to send and Gold Traders have been true to their word in paying at the same rate as quoted in the claim. Have really appreciated the straightforward, transparent and fair experience I've had with Gold Traders and recommend to others and will definitely use them again myself - thank you!

The service was superb. I sent the gold one day by registered delivery, got acknowledgement the following morning, a quote by lunchtime, which I accepted, and the sale price was paid into my account by mid afternoon. The gold quality was as I expected, but the weight slightly higher with their more accurate and precise scales. The price offered was at the top end of the range of the checks I had undertaken of different buyers in advance. I cannot recommend them too highly. It was excellent and extremely convenient.

The final payout rate of £68. 93/g was excellent and completely fair for my 18ct gold watch case. However, getting there was a real journey. Their system logged 'workings and glass removed 30. 2g' which caused massive confusion over the actual gold weight, and the phone support couldn't explain the math. After some firm emails and a overnight hold, Laura sorted it out, verified the 15. 1g gold weight with photos, and updated my payout to the live rate. Professional matching rates, but the dashboard phrasing needs work!

Really straightforward process which was very quick and easy. They kept in contact with me every step of the way and I feel I received a good fair price for my items. Would highly recommend and would definitely use again!

After getting a poor quote from a mobile buyer I looked elsewhere and found Gold traders. I checked the company out thoroughly and was satisfied so sent my gold to them as they quoted me £600 more than previous. Final price was just a touch lower but I accepted and the money was in my account within a few hours. Very happy with money I received and the excellent service. I would use again.

I was sorting out a few items I no longer wore and was collecting dust in a box. I have never sold before and looked through various reviews to different places. I can say that the whole process was simple, easy and stress free and I was actually pleasently suprised at the quote I recieved. I was more than happy to accept and I am treating my family to a nice meal. Would definately recommend to anyone, gold traders give you a fair good price! Thank you and I will be using you again in the future! Very happy customer!

Very prompt, polite and professional service. Good equipment to identify metals and good prices for the items I sold.
Natalie Godwin
Catford
Very straightforward, clear instructions, and I ended up getting double what I was offered by another company when I sent them a whole box of stuff including the gold and silver! So overall very pleased. Thank you.

Northwich
Only took 30 hours from weighing the items on my digital kitchen scales to money going into my account. I phoned and spoke to someone before I sent my items to check if certain items were of value. The man was very helpful. Easy to post at the local Post Office by ’Special Delivery’. I wrote out the details and declaration by hand as I don’t have a printer. Email the next morning to say the package had arrived. A second email a few hours later with the actual value, which I accepted. Very easy process and would highly recommend.

Gold Traders is an exceptional company, they provided great valuations at a competitive rate. The service I received was fantastic and really put my mind at ease! I would highly recommend using them.

I was a bit nervous as you hear so many horror stories. But I tested the water with some broken tarnished bits and pieces. The service was quick and painless and the price was extremely reasonable. I have since used Gold traders twice more and they have been nothing less than totally professional and fair. The communication was spot on and they kept me up to date every step of the way by email. I would definitely use them again. A very positive experience.
Mr Shane Newman

Very straight forward reasonable price paid in fact slightly better than others I tried answered email question promptly and dealt with it within 24 hrs. Nothing at all to complain about honestly.
Sebastian Scott
Sydenham
This was the most efficient and supportive trade experience I have had in a while. I have no concerns or complaints. Sent the parcel yesterday and received payment today. Would recommend.
Malcolm Harirs
Hayling Island
Very, very pleased and would happily recommend Gold Traders to anyone with some Gold to sell. In only a few days I received my money, a little more than the value on the web site. The on site valuation is easy to work out, just put in the accurate weight and send it off. I will be using this site from now on. I don't usually leave reviews but I feel Gold Traders deserve it.
