Our Story — Sell My Gold South Africa

When South Africans decide to sell my gold — broken, unwanted, old, or investment-grade — they deserve a process that is professional, completely discreet, and fair. That is the promise has kept since the day we opened in 1997, and it is why we have become one of the most trusted names in gold buying across South Africa.

Since 1997 we have completed tens of thousands of secure transactions for satisfied clients across South Africa, steadily building a reputation founded on trust, transparency, and immediate EFT payment on every single sale.

A National Footprint

Over the years, we have operated from more than 10 offices nationwide, including Bloemfontein, Limpopo, Durban, the Northern & Eastern Cape, and Witbank. Since then, we have consolidated to our Gauteng (Pretoria) head office at Corobay Corner Building, Menlyn Maine — while simultaneously expanding our reach so that clients from Cape Town to Polokwane, Durban to Bloemfontein can sell gold conveniently through our fully insured nationwide courier service.

Every transaction — regardless of size or location — is backed by the same professionalism, integrity, and total discretion you would expect from South Africa's most trusted gold buyer.
