Clients Nationwide Love Alloy
Working with Alloy has been a great pleasure! Very fair offers, super-friendly customer service, and amazingly quick payouts! Their honesty is by far greater than any other service I’ve used.
L.G. Deltona, FL
The selling transaction was easy with a rapid response from this company. They worked with me to come up with a very reasonable payout. I am very impressed with this company and their offer.
Patrice Boise, ID
Dropped off the package for FedEx on Tuesday, received an offer on Thursday, and it’s in the bank today. Easy Peasy.
Jennifer Chicago, IL
I’m so glad I found Alloy. It was convenient, fast, and very fair. After visiting three different dealers, I took a chance on Alloy, and it was worth it! I will recommend everybody to their company. I’m so grateful.
Janice Houston, TX
The whole process from the very beginning to the end was straightforward and smooth. Alloy’s prices were higher than those of a well-known pawn shop in my town. I accepted the offer on Friday afternoon and received my cash by Monday. I will certainly recommend this company and do business with them again.
Lenny Denver, CO
Holy crap, it’s legit! I was shocked by the response time I got from them, saying they received my item. They made an offer, and I took it. It was $30 more than a pawn shop. Absolutely, I will recommend and will definitely tell my family and friends! Thank you!
Kelly Austin, TX
This was the best company I have ever dealt with. They were easy, quick, and appreciative of my business. The best is their personal and professional help.

Frequently Asked Questions
Pawn shops generally offer way below the spot value of any precious metal. The reason for this is that they carry so much overhead. Additionally, refining precious metals costs money. Businesses consider those facts when calculating their profit margin and your offer. For more info on the research supporting our numbers, please visit “Scrap Gold Price at a Pawn Shop Today.”
Bullion contains the purest version of a precious metal. In the case of platinum, bullion is made of 99.95% platinum and carries the 999.5 stamp. Scrap platinum comes from anything lower than 999 fineness. Jewelers typically make jewelry with this level of purity. Jewelry made with this fineness carries a stamp of 950, 900, or 850. Because a buyer has to refine scrap platinum to a higher purity, offers for scrap will be lower than for bullion.
Yes, our platinum calculator calculates the value of scrap and investment-grade platinum bullion. Select the appropriate purity for your piece to get the most accurate valuation.
All of our calculators pull live, up-to-date spot prices of various precious metals. They use the purity, weight, and current spot price to provide you with an accurate valuation.
The spot price of all precious metals is constantly changing. Our calculators list the most up-to-date spot price of the listed precious metal by gram on their face. The widget to the right features a live-updating spot price for grams and ounces.
To calculate the value of your platinum, multiply the weight of your piece by its purity, then by the spot price. The calculator does this all for you. But if you’d like to do it manually, it will look like this.
Using 10 grams of platinum marked 950:
10g x 95% x spot price/g = melt value of platinum
