Sell jewelleryAn Bosca Óir, our free postal pack
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.
- Follow it
- Every box has its own number and its own tracking page, so you can see exactly where it is at every stage, from the day we post it to the day you are paid.

Selling from Dublin, question by question
Can I sell gold in person in Dublin?
Yes, by appointment, for lots worth more than €1,000: you watch the weighing and the XRF testing and are paid by bank transfer the same day. Smaller lots go through the free insured Bosca Óir postal pack, the same as anywhere else in Ireland, at the same price per gram.
Is there a Liffey Metals shop or walk-in counter in Dublin?
No. We are a service-area business, not a shop: the free postal pack covers every address in Dublin, and larger lots are seen in person by appointment. We do not publish a walk-in address; the time and place are agreed on WhatsApp when the appointment is made.
Which parts of Dublin does the free postal pack cover?
All of Dublin city and county: Dublin 1 to Dublin 24, Fingal, South Dublin and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, from Swords and Blanchardstown to Tallaght and Dún Laoghaire, and everywhere between. Post it back from any An Post office and keep the receipt.
How quickly am I paid for gold sold in Dublin?
An Post usually delivers the box to you the next working day and brings it back to us as quickly. We open the box on camera within 24 hours of arrival, send the itemised offer the same day, and pay by bank transfer the same working day you accept. In person, the testing and the payment happen at the appointment.

€33.20 per gram, net, for hallmarked 9ct (375), live as of 15 Nov, 13:17 Dublin time. 18ct pays €71.45 and 22ct €87.26. The figure is the same at our Dublin appointments as by post from Donegal: one published price list for the whole island.
Is my parcel insured on the way across Dublin?
Yes. Once the parcel is scanned in with our prepaid label it travels at our risk, whatever the value, under our postal terms. A higher-value lot can also come in by appointment if you prefer.
Can I sell jewellery with the stones still in?
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.
