Selling platinum by post

We buy platinum jewellery and items in the common 900 and 950 purities. Each piece is assayed by XRF to confirm its purity and valued against the live LBMA platinum spot price.

The process is the same as for gold: a free insured pack, a transparent offer based on weight and purity, and payment within a minute of accepting by Faster Payments.

How platinum is valued

Platinum jewellery is most often made in 900 or 950 purity, marked Pt950, 950 or PLAT. We value it on the live LBMA platinum price, by weight and purity, and confirm the purity by XRF assay rather than relying on the stamp.

One thing that surprises people: platinum is noticeably denser than gold, so a platinum piece can weigh more than an identical-looking gold one and carry a different value. As with everything we buy, you see a clear, market-based offer before deciding.
