What You Should Expect when you visit us to sell gold and silver
We will sort your gold, silver platinum etc out into piles based on purity ie carat. In front of you & without distractions, we will weigh each carat, calculate the price based on our calculator price, less any deductions for non-gold / silver metal ie springs/clasps and also non-valuable/damaged stones etc and pay you either by bank transfer, cheque or cash. All items will be checked and tested either by acid or xrf analysis NB Unlike many competitors who have hidden charges, we do NOT charge any fees.. (For maps and our location see below)
You should expect an efficient, honest, no-frills service . We are a small family-run business that for the past 13 years has worked hard to ensure the General Public receive the very best prices for their items. That is our mission. To achieve this we keep our overheads low and we do NOT pay out for non-precious metal items nor do we barter or bargain. All agreed transactions are final. Since 2007 we have paid out over £26 million to some 55000+ customers, so rest assured you are in good hands.

Birmingham Jewellery Quarter Travel Information
The Jewellery Quarter is located just a few minutes to the north west of Birmingham City Centre. You’ll find it easy to get to, whether you’re travelling by car, train, tram or even on foot.
Travelling by Car
Birmingham is well served by major motorways, with the Jewellery Quarter itself well-signposted from the city centre.
From the South, the city is accessible by the M5 (from Devon, Somerset and the South West), the M40 (from London) and the M1 (from London via the M6 through Coventry).
From the North, both the M6 (Manchester and further North West) and the M1 (from Leeds, the wider North East and via the M6) will bring you to Birmingham.
Jewellery Quarter Bus Services
If you prefer to use public transport, there are plenty of local bus services to take you between Birmingham city centre and the Jewellery Quarter, as well as between the surrounding suburbs of Birmingham and the Black Country.
Many bus services are operated by National Express West Midlands, so you can visit their website to find out more about the bus tickets that are available and to search for up-to-date local bus timetables.
Jewellery Quarter Train Station
The Jewellery Quarter is served by its own train station (JEQ), located near the heart of the Quarter on Vyse Street and we are more or less opposite it .
It is a regular stop on all train journeys on the Birmingham to Worcester Line, which is operated by London Midland between Worcester and Stourbridge (to the West) and Solihull, Dorridge and Stratford-upon-Avon (to the East). During the day, Monday to Saturday, trains run to and from the Jewellery Quarter station approximately every 10 minutes.
Birmingham itself is served by three train stations – Birmingham New Street, Birmingham Snow Hill and Birmingham Moor Street. Most major towns and cities in the UK are accessible by train from New Street. From there, it’s just a short, 5 minute walk to Moor Street station to catch regular local services to the Jewellery Quarter.
To find out more about train travel to the Jewellery Quarter, visit London Midlands’ website.
Jewellery Quarter Tram & Metro
Since 1999, the Jewellery Quarter has been a stop on the Midland Metro tram line between Wolverhampton and Birmingham. This means that there is very easy access to and from the Jewellery Quarter from the traditional Black Country towns of Wolverhampton, Dudley and West Bromwich, among others.
The line has recently been extended from Birmingham Snow Hill into the heart of the city centre itself, with a stop at Birmingham New Street.
To find out more about travel using the metro, visit National Express West Midlands’ Midland Metro site.
