Why platinum is assessed separately
Platinum resembles white gold and silver, but it is a very different metal: denser, harder and rarer. A platinum ring weighs noticeably more than a white gold one of the same size. That difference in weight is often the first sign that you are holding something more valuable than you thought.
White gold or platinum? White gold is yellow gold with a rhodium coating; as that wears, a yellow tinge shows through. Platinum is the same white inside and out. Not sure? We measure it free of charge.
Which platinum does XGOUD buy?
- Platinum jewellery – rings, chains and settings, usually 950
- Platinum bars – from 1 gram to 1 kilo
- Platinum coins – including the American Eagle and the Canadian Maple Leaf
- Industrial platinum – laboratory material, wire and contacts
- Scrap platinum – leftovers and estates
Catalytic converters and scrapyards
Catalytic converters do contain platinum, but in quantities so small that specialist processing is required. We do not buy individual converters. If it concerns a larger business consignment, contact our head office and we will see whether we can put you in touch with the right party.
Today’s platinum prices are listed side by side per purity; if you would like to work it out yourself first, use the calculator.

How customers look back on their sale
„On Saturday we went to see Ken at the head office in Eindhoven. What a pleasant and honest man! 2 of our 3 kids came along, which was no problem. He explained everything well and knew what he was talking about, so the children also found it interesting to listen and didn't get bored with the 'grown-up' stuff. It was immediately clear how many grams it was and which calculation went with it. He even advised us to visit other companies as well; it was our own choice to go straight for xgoud, and we would do it again. I received the amount for the gold jewellery I handed in today.”
Translated from Dutch
„Helped very well in Eindhoven and received a really decent price! It was a good €500 more than the competitor. Friendly, honest, transparent and open. No smart suits and expensive premises, just honest and pleasant service. Thanks again!”
Translated from Dutch
„Xgoud is a no-nonsense little company that, instead of an elaborate entourage, simply offers good service and above all a good price. Think at least 10% more than the slicker buyers at the top of the search engine.”
Translated from Dutch
„Last Friday I went to XGoud in Eindhoven without an appointment. Helped by Ken. The service and advice were excellent. Ken saw straight away what carat the gold was. Another important point: you get a good price. I had also looked at other gold buyers, but they came out much worse.”
Translated from Dutch
„Very trustful, honest and open negotiation. I deep recommend and is not necessary go far away to get a fare and honest trade. I will return in case needed.”
„Great service from Ken and Esther. There were some problems with the bank regarding the transfer, but this was neatly resolved. Good daily price, and I recommend everyone to go here!”
Translated from Dutch
„Xgoud in Eindhoven is really worth recommending, with a good price. I called several shops and asked what I could get per gram for my gold at that moment; most of them couldn't tell me and said I should just make an appointment. Then I came across xgoud through their website and called them, asking whether any costs or commission would be deducted from the price on the website. The answer was no: you get the price per gram shown on the website at that moment. I made an appointment and sold my gold there the same day. A very nice man, no fuss or expensive suits and ties, who knows his stuff. He also gave me some tips, for example how to test a scale with a 10 euro cent coin, which should always weigh 4.10 g. One more tip: stay away from the gold exchange office in Weert, they quickly notice when you don't know much about it. The offer I got there was hundreds of euros lower than at xgoud.”
Translated from Dutch
„Great service and good advice. And 100% transparent communication!! You get the best price for your gold at XGold.”
Translated from Dutch
„Very friendly and helpful. Treated fairly and everything was clearly explained. Got a good price for my gold.”
Translated from Dutch
„Transparent, knowledgeable, professional.”
Translated from Dutch
„Good communication. Arranged quickly and professionally. Good price! I can recommend it.”

„I'll start by sharing my experience at the Goud-Wissel office in Eindhoven, where I initially ended up on the advice of an acquaintance. I already found it strange that their website didn't tell me roughly what I would receive per gram [in my case 18-carat gold] for the jewellery I wanted to sell. When I came in, the introductory questions felt like a kind of check on whether I knew what I was talking about. Even more: it gave me the creeping feeling that this conversation would be directly linked to the amount they would offer me for my gold. As a layman, I admitted that the generally known current gold price was my only 'knowledge'. What followed was a whole story about the broad concept of this valuation and a list of elements that made it logical that the buying price came nowhere near it. I had to realise that the basic costs of the gold exchange office: rent / fittings / staff / outsourced melting etc. were taken into account [read: deducted] from what was paid out to the customer at the bottom line. After testing, I was then offered 4,000 in short order. I had seen on a website that X-Goud also has a branch in Eindhoven, and it turned out to be almost around the corner. The owner happened to be there because the premises were being fitted out, but even though I had no appointment I was still received very warmly. After a clear, expert, no-obligation explanation and testing, Ekin named a rather different buying price compared to the Goud-Wisselkantoor where I had been an hour earlier. And luckily I had left to look for a kind of second opinion. X-GOUD bought my jewellery for 7,150!!!!!!!! A GOOD 3,000 MORE! Sorry for the long-winded build-up, but this piece really should have been written entirely in capitals so that everyone clearly reads how, in my view, to put it politely, they rip you off right to your face at the Goud-Wisselkantoor. Ekin, thanks again for your friendly service... a pity you couldn't offer coffee yet haha, but the offer for my jewellery more than makes up for it.”
Translated from Dutch
„It took a while before we could make an appointment with Ken, but when he visited us at home we hit it off straight away. Ken explained very clearly how he could assess the different metals. He gave us a very good price. We also had a pleasant conversation with this likeable man.”
Translated from Dutch
„Keeps his appointments. Good and fair prices. Friendly. A good partner to do business with.”
Translated from Dutch
„It felt right from the very first contact. Because of how busy it was, it took a little while before we could actually make an appointment, but today everything was neatly settled: no hassle or strange rules, just a fair, good price. We had a nice chat too. I'm very satisfied and will certainly contact Ken again in the future.”
Translated from Dutch
„Making an appointment took a bit of juggling, because Ken is a busy man, but it was absolutely worth it. He gives a fair price based on the actual daily value and takes the time to explain everything clearly. Transparent and reliable. Definitely recommended!”
Translated from Dutch
„Meeting up was a bit of a problem at first. But that was made up for with a sincere apology and the price offered for the items I brought. Recommended. In short, fine.”
Translated from Dutch
„It was a bit difficult to make an appointment, because the owner is always busy and on the road. But in the end I was helped very well and expertly. Everything was clearly explained, and at XGoud I really got the highest price for trading in a gold piece of jewellery!! Very satisfied with how it was handled.”
Translated from Dutch
„Good price and honest advice. Ekin is likeable and reliable.”
Translated from Dutch
„Had a small problem with the communication. Afterwards they called me properly, made an appointment and everything was neatly resolved. The company takes responsibility and sorts things out in a relaxed atmosphere 👍”
Translated from Dutch
„Because of a traffic jam the first appointment didn't go ahead, but the owner kept his word and came to my home. Got a really good price. What a difference from other buyers! A very busy man, but he absolutely keeps his word. A truly reliable company. I can recommend this company to everyone!”
Translated from Dutch
„Great service and very good contact, keeps appointments well and is very friendly!”
Translated from Dutch
„XGOUD's service is unmatched! Selling my gold jewellery went quickly and efficiently, and I got a great price. The gentleman even took the time to explain everything step by step. I can't recommend XGOUD enough!”
Translated from Dutch
„To sell a number of pieces of jewellery and watches, we took them to Ken at Xgoud and to several similar companies. Our conclusion is that at Xgoud the openness, the time taken for advice and of course a high real-time price gave us a good feeling about selling our items there. It went more than fine. Thank you!”
Translated from Dutch
„Good prices, a decent gentleman who keeps his appointments. I recommend this company to everyone!”
Translated from Dutch
„Made an appointment quickly and easily and completed the transaction. Also a very enthusiastic and reliable entrepreneur you can have a nice chat with.”
Translated from Dutch
„Really good service, nice man, fair price for your gold and immediate payment. I recommend XGoud to everyone.”
Translated from Dutch
„They are transparent about their prices in advance. Sometimes a bit hard to reach, but once you have the appointment, very correct and honest. And a nice price.”
Translated from Dutch
„I was a bit sceptical at first, because it was my first time. But in the end it was a pleasant meeting with Ken, in line with what we had agreed beforehand. We quickly reached a deal. Meeting at the agreed location was great too. Very good price. Would do it again!”
Translated from Dutch
„Despite the small amount of gold, just 2 small coins, I got a good price. Paid out in cash without any problem. Thanks Ken, good deal.”
Translated from Dutch
„Did good business with Ken, received a good price and everything was handled as agreed, and I quickly received the remaining amount in my bank account.”
Translated from Dutch
„A very pleasant experience with Ken, a good, fair price-quality ratio, so there will definitely be a next time. Theo Schuiling, Rotterdam.”

Translated from Dutch
„Good communication, smooth handling, in short a pleasant experience.”
Translated from Dutch
„Fast and clear contact, absolutely good service👌 Recommended”
Translated from Dutch
„No idea how it is with gold, but with diamonds you shouldn't come here! They have a calculator on their website that is supposed to give a good idea, but they offered 4x (!) less... not to mention how long it took before I got an offer! Next time I'll just go to Belgium again.”
Translated from Dutch
„Made an appointment via the website. I was called to agree on a place and time. On arrival we got a clear explanation, and Ken from XGoud took his time to value all the pieces. The price he offered, without obligation, was the price as stated on their website. The payment went smoothly too. A very good experience.”
Translated from Dutch
„Very fast & friendly service. You also get a fair price for your gold and leave with a good feeling!”
Translated from Dutch
„Good service, and honest”
Translated from Dutch
„Very pleasant and fast service. Good, clear explanation, truly recommended. I'll be coming back here more often!”

„A really great company with a good approach, and immediate cash for my gold jewellery 👍🏻”
Translated from Dutch
„Good, fast service. Old gold jewellery I never used anyway, exchanged at the current high gold price, because I also needed money and this was a quick way to go, with no regrets.”
Translated from Dutch
„Reliable / honest shop. The buyer is service-minded and leaves room for negotiation towards a win-win for both parties. Recommended!”
Translated from Dutch
„After visiting 2 jewellers and searching the internet for gold buyers, I chose XGoud. The description of XGoud on the website was very clear. The various buying prices for gold and gold coins were listed at the buying prices current at that moment. A very transparent business. I made an appointment. Indeed not a modern shop, but a friendly and very skilled buyer. He calmly and clearly explained how the carat was determined and how the weighing took place. Then I was asked whether I agreed with the valuation and the amount. After that, everything was put in writing. The financial settlement went fine. (At 2 jewellers I had had a gold 10-guilder coin valued. Their price was a good €50 lower. I would get a bit more for it if I bought other jewellery for that amount.) XGoud is truly recommended. Next time I would definitely choose them again. 30/07/20 Arnold, Sliedrecht”
Translated from Dutch
„Xgoud is the right place for all your gold, jewellery and coins. It is very transparent, and he gives the maximum amount for the gold you offer. The difference between the valuation and reality (without stones, movements etc.) was minimal, and the difference could be discussed. So recommended without reservation. Top.”
Translated from Dutch
„Good service and honesty. Recommended! I'll keep coming back here!”
Translated from Dutch
„A fine, reliable company. Gives a fair price for your gold and jewellery.”
Translated from Dutch
„Pleasant and friendly service. Got a fine price.”
Translated from Dutch
„I sold my necklace. He came to his shop especially for me when it was closed. I'm very satisfied with him and with the price I got.”

Questions about selling platinum
How do I recognise platinum?
Platinum carries the stamp 950, 900 or PT. If the stamp is missing, the weight gives it away: at the same size it is roughly twice as heavy as silver. If you are unsure, we measure the fineness free of charge, with you watching.
Is platinum worth more than gold?
Per gram usually not: gold has traded above platinum for years now. The total often turns out better than expected, though, because platinum has a density of 21.45 grams per cubic centimetre and is therefore heavier than gold. A platinum ring of the same size weighs more, and with us it is weight times fineness that counts in the end.
Do you buy catalytic converters?
We do not buy individual converters from private sellers; separate rules apply there regarding provenance and processing. If it concerns a business consignment, we are glad to see whether we can put you in touch with the right party. Contact our head office in Eindhoven and we will discuss what documentation is needed.
What identification do I need in order to sell?
You need valid photo identification: a passport, identity card or driving licence. We are legally required to record your details when buying precious metal, jewellery and watches. Without valid identification we are not allowed to buy anything.
When do I receive my money after the sale?
You receive your money as soon as you have agreed to the valuation. Smaller amounts are paid in cash; larger amounts reach your account by bank transfer within 24 hours. You sign the purchase receipt first, and payment follows.
