Merchandise Descriptions

You agree to accurately list and describe the Merchandise that you send to us on a packing slip, which you can print from our website. If we determine, in our sole discretion, that there are significant discrepancies between the Merchandise as described on your packing slip and the items we receive, or if no packing slip was included in the package, we may suspend or terminate the Transaction with notice to you. In the event that we terminate the Transaction, we will ship your Merchandise to you within 2 business days at our cost by the shipping method of our choosing, and you agree that we will only be responsible for insuring the value of your Merchandise up to $100.

Inbound Shipping Options, Costs, and Insurance

FedEx^® shipping

If you choose FedEx^® shipping, we will either mail you all the shipping and packaging materials at our expense or you may print your own air bill, packing slip, and instructions from our website. If you choose this method of shipping and use a FedEx^® shipping label provided by us, we will pay your inbound shipping costs, including insurance up to $75,000. If you believe that you need additional insurance, then it is your responsibility to obtain such additional insurance at your expense before sending us your Merchandise using this method of shipment.

UPS^® shipping

If you choose UPS^® shipping, we will either mail you all the shipping and packaging materials at our expense or you may print your own air bill, packing slip, and instructions from our website. If you choose this method of shipping and use a UPS^® shipping label provided by us, we will pay your inbound shipping costs, including insurance up to $75,000. If you believe that you need additional insurance, then it is your responsibility to obtain such additional insurance at your expense before sending us your Merchandise using this method of shipment.

Choosing your own shipping method

You can choose to ship your Merchandise at your own risk and expense in which case you still agree to print a packing slip and instructions from our website. If you choose to ship your Merchandise at your own risk, or choose not to use a FedEx^® or UPS^® air bill provided by us in any event, you agree to pay for all inbound shipping expenses, to insure your Merchandise at your own cost for full value with the shipper, arrange for package tracking, and waive any and all claims against us for any loss or damage to the Merchandise during transit. Any claims for lost or destroyed Merchandise must be made against the shipper - not us.

If you send us your Merchandise using FedEx^® or UPS^® with an air bill provided by us, and your Merchandise becomes lost in transit, we will file a claim with the shipper and pay you the value of any settlement received from the shipper and/or our insurance company.

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to reject delivery of any envelope or package that appears to be damaged, opened or tampered with, and we will return these envelopes or packages to you by a means of our choice. For purposes of these Terms and Conditions, any inbound package that we reject will not be deemed to have been "received" by us. We will have no liability to any customer for returning envelopes or packages in this manner.

Receipt and Valuation of Merchandise

We videotape the opening and the contents of each package of Merchandise we receive. For a limited time, you may watch this video in your login area of our website or make arrangements with us to order a copy of the video. You agree that you fully understand how to use our website and have established your own unique password and customer account on our website in order to access information pertaining to your Merchandise.

Upon receipt of your Merchandise, we will weigh and evaluate your Merchandise, enter your Merchandise into our database and determine its valuation based upon the current real time “spot” price provided by the COMEX (Commodity Exchange), the leading commodity exchange in the US for metals and a division of the NYMEX (New York Mercantile Exchange). We purchase Merchandise for refining value, not for resale. Prices for Merchandise are based solely on the weight of your Merchandise and karat grade contained in your Merchandise, not on its potential value if resold intact. For this reason, we cannot pay for gemstones in your Merchandise.

Settlement and Acceptance

Upon processing your Merchandise, we will notify you by email, text message or telephone that your Merchandise and our settlement payment for your Merchandise ("Settlement") is available for you to view on our website by logging into your customer account ("Settlement Notice"). You must accept or decline your Settlement within 60 days after we send our "Settlement Notice" to you by logging into your customer account on our website using and accepting or declining the Settlement.

If you have not logged into your customer account on our website to accept or decline your Settlement within the time frame set forth above, then you will be deemed to have accepted the Settlement, and we will issue payment of your Settlement to you according to the method you initially selected on your packing list form.

Upon your acceptance of the Settlement (either affirmatively, or by failing to decline or accept the Settlement within the time frame set forth above), we will send your Settlement to you by the end of the next business day after we receive your Settlement Notice in accordance with the method of payment you selected for your Settlement on the packing list form. Your payment may be processed sooner if you log into your customer account and selecting: "I accept. Please speed my payment."

Settlement Payment

You can select one of the following methods of payments for your Settlement on the packing list form:

• ACH, electronic bank transfer into your bank account in accordance with the instructions you provided to us;

• Company check sent via USPS;

• Company check sent via FedEx^® Overnight shipping with the fee deducted from the payment of your Settlement;

• Wire transfer into your bank or brokerage account in accordance with the instructions you provided to us with the fee deducted from the payment of your Settlement; or

• If you fail to select a method of payment, then you will receive a company check via USPS.

It is your responsibility to know the terms and conditions of the method of payment you select as set forth herein and as stated on our website.

By selecting the payment of your Settlement by deposit of an ACH into your bank account, or wire transfer into your bank or brokerage account on the packing list form, you acknowledge and agree that if you affirmatively accept the Settlement within the time frame set forth herein, or accept the Settlement by default (i.e., by failing to decline or accept the Settlement within the time frame set forth above) the Transaction is final, payment will be sent to you by the method you selected on the packing list form, we will own the Merchandise, and you will have no right to decline the Settlement or claim that the Merchandise be returned to you and the Merchandise will be destroyed in accordance with our procedures which include smelting and refining. You further acknowledge and agree that if you had selected payment by company check on the packing list form instead of by direct deposit, you would have had a right to a return period as specified below.

Returned Merchandise- Outbound Costs and Insurance

If you decline the Settlement within the time frame set forth above, then we will ship your Merchandise to you at the address indicated in our records within 2 business days via a shipping method of our choice at no cost to you, and insuring your Merchandise for full value of the Settlement.

If you elected payment by check and you change your mind about selling your Merchandise, you must notify us either by email or by phone no later than 10 days after the date upon which we issue payment to you. If you do not contact us within this period of time, the Merchandise will be destroyed in accordance with our procedures which include smelting and refining and we will no longer be able to return it to you.

This 10-day return period cannot be altered for any reason, and we will not be responsible for any loss or damage of any kind if you do not contact us within this return period for return of Merchandise.

If a package containing your Merchandise is lost in transit while being returned to you in accordance with these Terms and Conditions, we will file a claim with the shipper and pay you the full value of the rejected settlement.
