How to Send Scrap Gold to GoldKit
It is easy to send scrap gold to GoldKit.
You simply apply for a GoldKit gold recycling pack. This is free and will be sent to you at the address you have provided in a standard business envelope. It includes three components:

  1. Your custom, bar-coded receipt form that tells GoldKit where to send your check and provides you with other useful information
  2. A thick (6mil) polymer bag to safely hold your scrap gold
  3. An envelope in which you can mail the receipt form and bag

All you need to do is fill out the form, put your gold items in the bag, put the form and bag in the envelope and put it in the mail. Postage and insurance are prepaid by GoldKit.

GoldKit Guaranty Against Loss and Limitations of Liability
If there is a loss of the contents of a GoldKit™ that you properly shipped to Lippincott in accordance with the instructions and procedures set forth on the GoldKit.com™ web site, Lippincott will guaranty you against such loss, subject to these terms and conditions:

  • Lippincott’s limit their liability under such loss guaranty to one-third (1/3) of the value of the lost contents or One Hundred ($100.00) Dollars, whichever is less.

If you think your gold, jewelry or other property is worth more than $100.00, it is recommended that you insure your shipment for more yourself, using any carrier you choose. Ensure that there is no reference to gold, scrap gold or any other precious metal on the envelope, however.

How do GoldKit Pay You
As soon as your scrap gold arrives at GoldKit, they will make an assessment of the value and will send out a check within 24 hours.

The assessment will depend upon:
  • Whether or not your items contain gold or other precious metals and gems
  • The purity of the gold or other precious metals and the quality of the gems
  • The weight of the gold, precious metals, and/or gems
The amount of your check will depend on this evaluation.

Remember, the scrap gold price GoldKit pays for your scrap gold does not reflect retail prices. It will, rather, reflect the price of the gold in the items. GoldKit state that they pay by weight, the more gold the more they will pay.

If for any reason you are not happy with their payment for your recycled gold material, you are invited to receive your material back insured at GoldKit's expense. They simply ask that you return their check pursuant to the terms of the GoldKit™ Guarantee.*

GoldKit are also members of the jewelersboard, jewelerssecurity, ipmi and jvclegal.
