Rocco Clayfield, founder of GoldPaid, is available to journalists for comment on UK gold and silver prices, hallmarks, XRF testing and selling safely by post. Email goldpaiduk@gmail.com or message 07944 014111, 8am to 9pm, 7 days a week, with your deadline and questions.

Topics he can comment on

  • Gold and silver prices in pounds: what moves the sterling price, and what it means for someone selling jewellery.
  • Hallmarks: reading UK and foreign marks, the four assay offices, and selling unhallmarked gold.
  • XRF testing: what it measures, its limits, and how it compares with an acid test.
  • Selling safely by post: Royal Mail cover may be available up to £2,500 depending on the postal method and cover level used; what to keep, and how free returns work.

Take it at your pace. Start with a WhatsApp photo and a question, ask anything about the X-ray (XRF) test, the per-gram rate, the postal cover, or the return-if-you-decline route. Nothing is posted until you choose to post it, and the written offer is the first moment any decision actually counts.

GoldPaid is a UK-wide postal gold and silver buying service with no shop: you request a free prepaid Royal Mail Special Delivery label, your items are XRF-assayed in house, and you are paid by bank transfer only if you accept the written offer.

Your prepaid Royal Mail Special Delivery label is addressed to GOLDPAID LTD, Unit 217, Bristol Business Centre, 179 Whiteladies Road, Clifton, Bristol BS8 2AG. That is our Bristol office: your parcel is signed for on arrival and opened there, and each item is weighed and XRF-tested, so you know exactly where it is going before you post it.
