Sellers are responsible for all shipping and handling costs. This includes costs associated with selling from storage accounts, if any.
Precious metals are most commonly shipped, fully insured, with delivery signature required. It is the customer's sole responsibility to ensure packages are properly insured, as we cannot be held responsible for the loss of metals in transit.
Customers are provided a contract number for each sellback they enter.
Once a sellback has been contracted, customers must log in to their account and open the associated Sellback Contract to enter the carrier and tracking number for each parcel within 1 business day of the sellback's contract inception. Questions may be relayed to customer support.
Customers who do not comply with this requirement may have their transactions cancelled.
Please see our Market Loss Policy (#6) regarding our cancellation terms and agreements.
Customer payments will be issued by:
- bank wire transfer (optional in the US, required for all international sellbacks; $25 fee),
- physical check mailed Certified USPS (US only, no fee).
Proceeds from your bullion sale to us, will be mailed by check and or executed by bank wire transfer within 3 business days of your shipment's arrival and verification. Verification timeframe varies based on vault transition capacity.
A social security number and or passport number will be required for all nonexempt IRS 1099 sellbacks.
