Spot price versus what a buyer pays
The silver price in the news is for pure silver by the troy ounce. Sterling is only 92.5 percent silver, so divide by fineness before you compare. Our table is already the net figure we pay, built from spot and our published margin, rounded down to the cent.
How it works
Message us on WhatsApp first
Silver starts with a short WhatsApp chat: a photo of the marks and a rough weight tells us whether it is sterling or plate and how much packaging you need. If it is worth sending, we post you a free pack with a prepaid insured return label.
Post it from any An Post office
Seal the items in the security bag, hand the parcel in at any An Post office and keep the proof of postage. The label is prepaid, tracked and insured, and once An Post scans it the parcel travels at our risk up to 2,000 euro. It usually reaches us in Dublin the next working day.
We weigh and XRF test it on camera
Every piece is weighed on a calibrated scale and tested on an XRF analyser, which reads the metal's composition without damaging it. The opening and testing are recorded, and your itemised offer lists each piece, its weight, its grade and the published price per gram applied. The offer stays open for 48 hours.
Accept the price and get paid by bank transfer
Accept and we pay by bank transfer the same working day, less 12 euro return postage at cost, waived when the parcel's melt value is over 500 euro. Decline and everything comes back to you free by tracked post. One valid photo ID is checked before any payment.

Questions people ask
What is the silver price per gram in Ireland today?
Sterling silver is 92.5 percent silver, so the net price per gram we pay is on the table on this page and moves with the live London silver price through the day. Plate marked EPNS has no melt value.
Why is sterling priced differently from 800 silver?
Because sterling contains more silver per gram. 925 is 92.5 percent silver; 800 is 80 percent. Both are priced off the same spot, multiplied by fineness, minus our published margin.
Do knives use the sterling rate?
No. Silver-handled knives are weighed whole at half the sterling rate because the blade is steel and the handle is filled. Forks and spoons pay the full sterling rate.
How often do silver prices change?
Through the day with the market. The figure on your offer is fixed when you accept it.
Can I sell silver using the gold postal pack?
Silver starts with a short WhatsApp chat so we can confirm it is sterling and send the right box. The rate per gram is the same whether you post from Cork or Dublin.
