Sell Us Your Metals in Just a Few Easy Steps

Since bullion is a commodity, our purchase price is closely tied to the current spot price set by the Commodities Exchange (COMEX). We typically buy at or near the spot price, depending on the specific item and market demand. The exact payout for your items will always be clearly listed with each product, regardless of how you access them. Please note that payout prices fluctuate with market rates until they are locked in. For a full list of the items we buy and their current price index, visit our our Payouts Catalog.

Before starting the process, please have the following items handy:

• Blank check (or your account number and bank's routing number)
• Government-issued photo ID (you can upload a photo or scanned image, or send it from your mobile device)
• Digital camera or mobile device to take a photo of your shipment for verification purposes
• Proper box, tape and packing materials

Although we have a list of items that we are actively buying, we are happy to consider all precious metals. Give us a call at 800-775-3504 if you would like to discuss a particular unlisted item. Please note that the United States Gold Bureau does not buy scrap metal, jewelry, or other items such as dental implants.

You will be guided through a short series of tasks to identify the items you want to sell, verify your identity, and properly pack your box. Your payout price will be locked when the mailing label is created. At this time, you will have 48 hours to ship your item(s) to maintain the locked price.

Our online “Sell to Us” feature can be used for transactions ranging from $1,000 to $75,000. If you would like to liquidate more than this, please give us a call at (800) 775-3504 for a quote. We are happy to consider all precious metals that are in either coin or bar form.

All products are listed with up to the minute pricing so you can see exactly what the payout will be for each listed bar or coin. You can also use the 'Sell to Us' feature located on our product pages while navigating through other products within our store.

We recommend packing your precious metals securely to prevent movement and potential damage during transit. Loose coins and bars can scratch or dent each other if not properly secured. To minimize risk, use protective materials that keep the items anchored in the center of the box. This not only prevents shifting during shipment but also ensures a smooth and efficient processing experience when your package arrives at our facility.

We welcome visitors to our headquarters in Leander, Texas. Due to our comprehensive security procedures, we ask that you schedule an appointment at least 48 hours in advance by giving us a call. A Precious Metals Specialist, or a Customer Service agent, will guide you through the process to ensure your visit is seamlessly coordinated with our security team.

Our buying process is straightforward, reliable, and efficient. Once you create a personalized client account on our secure website, you'll receive an instant quote for your coins or bars.

The U.S. Gold Bureau is committed to honesty and transparency—we do not charge hidden fees. Before sending your metals to us, you'll know exactly how much we will pay you. As your trusted partner, we cover shipping and insurance when you purchase metals. When selling them back to us, your only cost is a $25.00 priority shipping and insurance fee, which is deducted from your proceeds. You can sell your precious metals with confidence, knowing there are no unexpected charges.

There is increasing pressure on the federal government to redistribute wealth and “move money around” to take care of people that don’t take care of themselves. Thanks to a little-known law, you can now put gold or silver into your IRA or 401k account to own physical precious metals in coin or bar form. You’ll never have to wonder if your retirement is secure because YOU have all the control. Learn more about Precious Metals in a 401k or IRA.
