Battersea has transformed into one of London's most sought-after neighbourhoods, and the people who live and work here deserve a gold and silver buying service that reflects that standard. At 888 Bullion, we offer exactly that — a professional, transparent and highly rewarding service for anyone looking to sell precious metals in Battersea and across South West London.
We are based in Hatton Garden and have been buying gold and silver for over 40 years. Our fully insured postal service means Battersea residents can sell from home, receive a valuation based on live market prices and get paid the same day their items are assessed.
We do not believe in vague offers or opaque pricing. Every customer receives a clear, detailed valuation and the same commitment to paying the best possible price.
Many people in Battersea have gold or silver sitting in a drawer that they no longer wear or need. Whether it is jewellery from a previous relationship, inherited pieces that do not suit your style, or bullion you purchased as an investment and are now ready to liquidate, 888 Bullion offers a straightforward route to getting the best possible return.
We buy all types of precious metals, including:
Every item is assessed using professional XRF technology and valued against the live market price at the time of testing. You will always receive a transparent breakdown of your valuation.
The difference between selling to 888 Bullion and selling to a local jeweller or pawnbroker in Battersea can be significant. We regularly pay up to 98% of the live spot price for gold and silver, while most local buyers pay between 50% and 70%.
This is possible because of our in-house refining operation. We repurpose quality precious metals into new jewellery and bullion products rather than simply scrapping them, which reduces our costs and allows us to share a far greater proportion of the value with the people who sell to us.
We also back every transaction with a best-price guarantee. Show us a genuine written offer from another buyer and we will beat it.
Once your items arrive at our Hatton Garden office and have been assessed, we aim to transfer payment to your UK bank account within 2 hours. Every customer receives payment within 24 hours of us receiving their items, without exception.
We pay by bank transfer only — fast, secure and completely traceable.
Pack your gold or silver carefully and send it to our Hatton Garden office using Royal Mail Special Delivery. Your parcel will be automatically insured up to £2,500 throughout the journey.
For items worth more than £2,500, please contact us before sending so we can arrange additional insurance cover. Your valuables are fully protected from the moment they leave Battersea until they arrive safely with our team.
