Everyone wins by recycling
Silver and gold are living materials that last forever. Recycling old jewellery requires less energy and resources and significantly reduces emissions into the air, soil and water compared to mining new precious metals.
In addition, you make it possible for us to create our jewelry in 100% recycled material. Each piece of Guldviva jewelry is made by hand in our workshop in 925 Sterling Silver or 18K gold.
You are safe when you sell to us
If you have any questions, you can always visit us in our shop in Sjökvarteret or reach us by phone or email. Our experienced goldsmiths will first make a valuation of your items and then offer you a price that you can freely choose to accept or not. The scales we use for weighing your items are approved by Inspecta Oy and are checked regularly to ensure correct calculation of the weight.
Guldviva offers to buy precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum and palladium from the public.
PRICE AND PROCEDURE
The price Guldviva offers is based on the world market price of 24 carat gold, or the respective world market price of other metals. For purchases, the current day's world market price is used for the calculation. Please note that we pay the so-called "scrap price", the items have no other value, such as antique or sentimental. Costs for melting and purification of the items are taken into account when Guldviva calculates its price.
For the current daily price, please contact us by phone on +358 18 22130.
The objects are primarily submitted for valuation. Guldviva performs the various tests needed to determine the authenticity of the objects and the content of e.g. gold that the objects contain.
Guldviva then offers a price per gram of the respective precious metal, excluding stones and other parts consisting of non-recyclable material for Guldviva . The price is calculated on the weight and content of pure precious metal.
Removed items that have no monetary value (e.g. fake stones) are not returned to the customer. Fake jewellery and genuine diamonds or other valuable cleared items will only be returned to the customer if the request is made at the same time as the sale is approved.
You can either use the amount to shop in our store, or choose to have the money credited to your account. We always give you 20% more if you choose to use the credit with us.
If you prefer to have money credited to your account and accept the price offered by Guldviva , this will be paid to the bank account provided within 7 working days of the customer accepting the sale and providing account details. Payment is not made in cash.
RETURN OF ITEMS
If the Customer does not accept the price offered by Guldviva and declines to sell, they should collect their items as soon as possible but at the latest within 3 months. If the Customer does not collect the items within this period, uncollected items will be discarded.
THE CUSTOMER
The customer must be at least 18 years old and the legal owner of the items to be sold. The customer must have a bank account and the account must be in the customer's name. The customer must show identification such as a driver's license or passport when submitting items for valuation.
PROTECTION OF OBJECTS OF CULTURAL AND HISTORICAL VALUE
In Åland there is the Landskapslag (1986:58) om skydd för kulturhistoriskt värdefulla föremål. This law states that jewelry can be considered as culturally and historically valuable objects if it has special artistic or historical interest and is older than 50 years. Such jewelry may only be exported from Åland under certain conditions without permission from the provincial government. Exports are restricted to ensure that cultural objects important to Åland's cultural heritage are preserved within the province. If you sell your objects to us, you can rest assured that you are not violating this law. We also buy these objects, but keep them in Åland in our own collections. We currently have over 200 such pieces cataloged.
CRIME PREVENTION
Guldviva reserves the right to document by photography the objects submitted for valuation. In case of suspicion of crime (e.g. stolen goods) or fraud, a report will be made to the police. At the request of the police, documented information will be forwarded to the local police authority.
