Yes – we sell gold and silver bullion, based on our current inventory. Although our selection is limited, our bullion selling prices are the best in Vancouver. Please contact us to enquire about our current bullion for sale.

You can drop in to see us at any of our offices: Vancouver, North Vancouver, Richmond or Surrey. When you arrive, we will test and weigh your gold in front of you, issue you a receipt, and pay on the spot for your gold!

Vancouver Gold pays as much as 98% of the melt value of your gold. This is much higher than most jewellery stores, pawn shops, infomercial gold buyers, and online mail-in services, which typically offer 20-60% of melt value. Remember, a troy ounce of gold weighs 31.1grams.

We have many satisfied customers in Vancouver, and we are happy to provide references. Since we deal with local customers in Vancouver, we are able to keep our operating expenses low and offer excellent prices. After covering our refining, assay, and financing charges, our profit margin is very small. We have done extensive market research, and we are confident that our prices exceed our competitors.

Solid gold is usually stamped with the purity, while gold-plated items are stamped “GP”, “KP”, “HGE”, “RGP”, “GE”, or “GF”. We are unable to buy plated items as they contain very little gold.

No, all of our purchase prices are based on current prices of gold, silver, and platinum. With today’s high gold prices, there has never been a better time to sell. Most of our customers are surprised by the value of their jewellery items.

Gold is not magnetic. Many gold-plated items have a core of nickel or iron, which ARE magnetic. So, a magnet can be used to determine if your item is nickel or iron, with a thin plating of gold. WARNING: Some gold plated items contain a brass core, which is not magnetic.
