Price Policy

Best Price Guarantee — We Match or Beat Any Written Offer

Bring us any written offer from a registered Montreal gold buyer and we will match it or beat it — on the spot, before you decide.

We can make this guarantee because our process is built differently. We test every item with XRF (X-ray fluorescence), which measures actual elemental composition rather than relying on a hallmark or scratch test. A piece that measures 17.1 karats is paid as 17.1 karats — not rounded down to 16. That precision alone means our offer is typically higher than buyers who estimate by eye or use acid tests.

Our rates are based on live market pricing updated daily. You see the spot price, you see the test result, you see the calculation. No guesswork, no negotiation theatre.

How it works:

Step 1

Bring your items and any written offer you have received elsewhere.

Step 2

We run a free XRF appraisal in front of you — takes under 10 minutes.

Step 3

We present our offer based on live market pricing.

Step 4

If your written offer is higher, we beat it. If ours is already higher, you keep the difference.

Applies to: gold jewellery only (does not apply to pure gold bullion/bars/coins or silver) with a written offer from a registered gold buyer in the Montreal area.

Gold Selling Questions

Testing, Karats and Payment

How your gold is tested and priced, answered before you visit.

How do you test the karat of my gold?
Every item is tested by XRF (X-ray fluorescence), which measures its actual elemental composition, and you watch the reading during the appraisal. Because XRF reads true purity instead of relying on a hallmark or a scratch test, a piece that measures 17.1K is paid as 17.1K rather than being rounded down to the karat below.
What karats of gold do you buy?
We buy 10K, 14K, 18K, 21K, 22K and 24K, along with unmarked and mismatched pieces. Broken chains, single earrings, bent rings, dental gold and gold watch cases are all accepted, because condition does not change the gold content.
How is the price of my gold calculated?
Your offer combines four things: the XRF-verified purity, the payable gold weight, the market-linked buying rate updated daily from live spot data supplied by MetalPriceAPI, and the volume tier that applies to your total weight.
Are gemstones and non-gold parts included in the weight?
No. Stones, watch movements, clasps and other non-gold components are excluded or accounted for separately, so the offer reflects payable gold weight only.
Do I need an appointment to sell gold?
No appointment is needed for in-store appraisals during business hours. Appointments are only required for free home evaluations of larger collections, which you can arrange by calling 514-234-0192.
Is the appraisal free, and am I obliged to sell?
Every appraisal is free and carries no obligation. You see the tested purity, the payable weight and the final offer before deciding, so you are free to compare elsewhere first.
