It\u2019s not an exaggeration to say 2020 has been a tough time for many of us. COVID-19 and the recession that followed <\/a>mean this will be one of the hardest Christmases for generations. But that doesn\u2019t mean you couldn\u2019t have something of a Christmas miracle – if you have any scrap gold lying around, that could loosen up some much-needed cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With prices higher than during any previous festive season, now could be the opportune time to make a sale, to reap a much-needed cash boost this Christmas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High prices, high rewards<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During times of uncertainty, gold prices rise and we\u2019ve had bucketloads of that in 2020. Crashing stock markets, businesses shutting up shop and people having to stay indoors has forced many of us to get more used to staying within the four walls of our homes. But what if you\u2019ve done some looking around, and found a trove of unwanted gold items?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This summer, UK gold prices touched \u00a31,500 per troy ounce for the first time. This means UK Scrap Gold is able to offer some of the highest prices for scrap we\u2019ve ever seen since we started helping people make sales across the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can see more of gold\u2019s impressive winning streak by checking out our Live Gold Price tracker<\/a> here. By catching the markets at the right time, during a price rally, you might be in a position to make the most of selling your gold for the highest price possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use our Scrap Gold Calculator<\/a> to get an up-to-date reading for what your items could be worth this Christmas. All you need is the weight and purity, as measured in carats. An item weighing just one gram with 9-carat purity could earn you \u00a315.93, so there\u2019s much to be made from selling today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A much-needed Christmas boost<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our prices are some of the most competitive on the gold scrap markets, as we offer an efficient digital service, which is easy to use, and allows you to make a transaction with a few short clicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No doubt we\u2019d all leap at the chance for a few extra pennies, especially ahead of the Christmas holidays. Selling your scrap gold with UK Scrap Gold<\/a> today could be just what you need – we\u2019re specialists in helping make quick and easy sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It all starts with filling out this Sell to Us form<\/a> with the basic personal details we need to ensure a safe transaction. Please note we will pause receipt of scrap items from 17th December 2020 for the festive holiday period, so make sure to send items before this date, to ensure we can receive them without delay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
