How a HighStreetGold valuation works
Every valuation follows the same four steps: identify the carat (by hallmark or testing), weigh each item on calibrated scales, apply the live gold market rate per gram, then document the small refining and handling adjustments. The figures are presented to you in an itemised offer before any decision is made.
Valuations are free whether you use the postal service or visit the flagship headquarters in person. Postal valuations are typically returned within one working day of items being received, with photos of every item on file.
If you accept, payment is sent the same working day. If you decline, your items are returned free of charge by tracked delivery — your gold is never melted or sold without your acceptance.
A valuation you can verify
An honest valuation is one you can check yourself. We publish the formula, document the rate at the time of testing and never reduce a quoted figure on arrival.
HighStreetGold operates from its headquarters above the flagship Cash Generator store in St Helens town centre — a real, identifiable UK business with genuine premises, real staff and a public local reputation. You always know who is behind your valuation.
Frequently asked questions
Is the gold valuation really free?+
Yes. There is no charge for the valuation, the postal pack or the return delivery if you decide not to sell.
How long does a valuation take?+
Most postal valuations are completed within one working day of receipt. In-person valuations at the flagship headquarters are usually completed while you wait.
Can I get a rough valuation before sending?+
We can share the current per-gram rate for your carat. The final per-item figure is confirmed after weighing and testing.
What happens to my gold during the valuation?+
Items are logged, photographed and held securely. Nothing is melted or sold until you have accepted your itemised offer.
