Tottenham is one of North London's most diverse and rapidly changing areas, and at 888 Bullion we are committed to making sure every resident has access to a gold and silver buying service that is honest, competitive and genuinely worth using.
Too often, people in Tottenham sell their gold or silver to the nearest available buyer and receive a fraction of what their items are actually worth. We are here to offer a better alternative. As Hatton Garden specialists with over 40 years of experience, we pay up to 98% of the live spot price — and our fully insured postal service means you can access those prices from home, without any travel or pressure.
From the moment you contact us to the moment payment arrives in your bank account, we handle everything professionally, transparently and efficiently.
We are active buyers of all types of gold, silver, platinum and palladium in any condition. Our team regularly purchases:
Every item is assessed individually using professional XRF testing equipment and live market data. You will always receive a transparent valuation with a clear explanation of how we arrived at your price.
The difference between what 888 Bullion pays and what most local buyers in Tottenham offer comes down to one thing: how we process the precious metals we buy.
Most buyers send the gold they purchase to a third-party refiner, which adds cost and reduces the amount they can afford to pay you. At 888 Bullion, we run our own in-house refining operation. We also take a sustainable approach, repurposing quality precious metals into new jewellery and bullion products rather than simply scrapping them. This efficiency allows us to pay up to 98% of the live spot price — a level that most local buyers simply cannot match.
We also operate a best-price guarantee. If you have a genuine written offer from another buyer, 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 items carefully and send them to our Hatton Garden office using Royal Mail Special Delivery, which automatically insures your parcel up to £2,500 during transit.
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 Tottenham until they arrive safely with our team.

We assess your items on arrival and transfer payment to your bank account — usually within 2 hours of completing our valuation.
Absolutely. We buy gold and silver from all cultural traditions, including high-carat gold from Turkish, Kurdish, West African and Caribbean jewellery traditions. Our XRF testing identifies the exact purity of every item regardless of its origin, style or religious significance.
Yes. Broken gold chains are among the most common items we buy. The value is entirely in the metal content, not the condition. A broken 18 carat gold chain is worth exactly the same per gram as an intact one.
We can provide a rough estimate based on the weight and carat of your items if you can supply those details. However, our formal valuation is based on our XRF testing and the live spot price at the time of assessment, which gives you the most accurate and up-to-date figure.
We value your items based on the live spot price at the time of assessment — not when you sent them. If the price has risen, you benefit. If it has fallen, we will still honour a competitive offer. We will always explain the price we used and how it was applied.
Royal Mail Special Delivery is a fully tracked, signed-for service with automatic insurance up to £2,500. For higher-value items, we arrange additional cover before you send. In the unlikely event of any issue, your items are fully insured throughout the journey.
