*Augustus does not pay for diamonds or gemstones. If your items contain diamonds or gemstones that are 1/10th of a carat or larger that you would like removed, we will remove the stones for you and send them back with your payment for $20 for up to 3 gemstones, which we will deduct from your final payment. Smaller stones have very little secondary market value and are not removed by us. If you would like to request stone removal, please write the instructions on the comments section of your packing slip/inventory form.

When you sell and buy gold online, you want to know that you are working with an established and respectable company that has a reputation for honesty. The industry, unfortunately, has been blemished by companies that promise things they can't deliver and larger companies who make no promises at all and never fail to disappoint people with low payouts.

Augustus takes the guesswork out of the process by publishing our prices so that our clients know what to expect, including payouts that are up to 300% higher than our largest competitor. Whether we buy gold scrap or silver wearables, we want your experience with us to always be superior so that when someone you know is looking for someone to buy gold online you'll know immediately where to send them.

The relationships that we build with our clients determine what our relationships will be with their friends and family. In order to continually build those partnerships we make sure that we give our clients all the information that they need to make the best decisions. For us, this business is about more than just the process to sell and buy gold online; it's about changing the face of the industry through integrity. A client that is educated about the process is our best client. We have nothing to hide and we put it all out on the table.
