Common questions
Is melt value what a gold buyer should pay me?
No. Melt value is a reference for the contained gold, while a buyer may account for testing, refining, market risk and operating costs. Use the percentage to compare quotes, not as a guaranteed payout.
Does GoldOfferCheck buy gold?
No. GoldOfferCheck is an independent calculator and information site. It does not take possession of items or make purchase offers.
Are stones included in the calculation?
No. The calculator values gold content only. Estimate and subtract stones or other non-gold components when possible.
Where does the reference gold price come from?
The page requests a USD-per-troy-ounce market reference from Gold API. Users can inspect or replace that number before calculating. The methodology page explains the limitations.
