Independent comparison of UK gold and diamond buyers. We don’t buy your gold — we help you sell it for more.
Step-by-step selling guides for gold jewellery, coins, scrap gold, and diamonds — all written from the seller’s perspective, never the buyer’s.
Independent comparison of UK gold and diamond buyers with verified payout data. We test actual offers so you don’t have to.
Every guide, calculator, and comparison on this site is completely free. We’re funded by referral partnerships, not by buying your gold.
From 9ct British hallmarked chains to 24ct Asian gold without UK stamps — we cover every type of gold sold in the UK.
Gold valuations linked to the LBMA benchmark price, updated daily. Know what your gold is worth before you speak to any buyer.
We are not a gold buyer. We don’t make offers, hold your gold, or take a cut. Our only job is helping you get the best deal from the buyers who do.
Every guide on selling gold in the UK is written by someone who wants to buy your gold. Their advice is useful — but it’s never truly independent. They can’t tell you to sell to a competitor. They can’t admit their own payout rates aren’t the best. And they certainly can’t tell you to wait until prices improve.
GoldBuyerCheck was built to fill that gap. We’re an editorial site that tests, compares, and reviews gold and diamond buyers so sellers have a genuinely independent source of truth. We make money through referral partnerships with vetted buyers, but we never let that influence our rankings — and we publish our comparison methodology so you can verify our work.
This site has no stock, no shopfront, and no buying operation. We exist to advise sellers, not to compete with the buyers we review.
Our buyer comparisons are based on verified payout testing — not self-reported rates from buyer websites. When we say a buyer pays 92% of spot, we’ve checked.
We tell you what your gold or diamond is realistically worth on resale — not the inflated insurance valuation or the theoretical spot price. No false promises.
Every article is written for a first-time seller with no industry knowledge. We explain carats, hallmarks, and tax rules in plain English because that’s what our readers need.
