What is a Bosca Óir?
Bosca Óir is Irish for “gold box”. It is our free, insured postal pack: a box we post to your door with a prepaid return label already inside, so you can sell gold, silver and jewellery from anywhere in Ireland without leaving the house. Nothing to pay, nothing to arrange, and no obligation to sell.
The box, in short
- What arrives
- A sturdy box with a prepaid, tracked An Post return label already inside. Put your items in, seal it and drop it at any post office. The box is yours to keep.
- What it costs
- Nothing. The box is free, the return post is prepaid, and if you decline our price your items come back to you free as well. There are no deductions from your payment.
- Who carries the risk
- We do. From the moment the post office scans your parcel it travels at our risk, whatever the value. For an unusually valuable lot you can message us first and we arrange collection or a visit, but the post takes any size.
- Where we post
- Anywhere in the Republic of Ireland. Over a kilo of silver, tell us in the form and we send a bigger box. From Northern Ireland or the rest of the EU there is no pack: WhatsApp us for a quote and post to Dublin yourself, insured.

No. The Bosca Óir is posted to you in County Clare, you post it back from any post office, and the weighing, testing and offer all happen on camera. Rather hand it over in person? County Clare to our Dublin office is under three hours by road. You are welcome to book an appointment, but nothing about the price or the testing changes by post.
Is there a Liffey Metals shop in Clare?
No. We do not operate a public counter anywhere. Gold and silver from County Clare is opened and tested in Dublin, after you post it with the free insured pack, or by appointment if the lot is worth more than €1,000. The price per gram is the same either way.

Yes. Once the parcel is scanned in with our prepaid label it travels at our risk, whatever the value, under our postal terms. For an unusually valuable lot you can message us first and we arrange collection or a visit instead.
Is the price the same in Clare as in Dublin?
Yes. There is one published price list for all 32 counties, priced per gram off the live London market and refreshed through the day. There is no testing fee and no handling charge, wherever the box comes from.
Can I sell jewellery with the stones still in from Clare?
Yes. Send the piece as it is. We weigh and test the metal with the stones excluded and pay the published per-gram rate for it. Stones are assessed separately: we quote for them or return them to you. Send any certificate or valuation for the stones in with the piece. It travels with it and comes back with it if you decline.
