Sell gold in Calgary — mail-in done properly
Calgary does not have a Gold Stock Corp storefront, so selling gold to us from Calgary runs through our insured mail-in service — and this page exists to explain exactly how that works, because "mail your gold away" is a sentence that should come with a process, not a leap of faith. Gold Stock Corp is a national bullion dealer with permanent stores in Mississauga, Malton and Vancouver, part of a family gold business of more than 150 years. Calgary sellers get the same standard those counters give walk-in customers: your gold is tested properly, priced from the live Canadian-dollar market, and the offer is confirmed with you before anything is final. Nothing is melted, refined or sold on until you say yes.
What Calgary clients sell to us
Investment gold leads the list — bars and coins from any recognized mint or refiner, including the AARUS bars we sell and Maple Leafs in every size. Jewellery is the second stream: inherited pieces, broken chains, out-of-style settings, single earrings — in any karat, with gemstones identified and explained as part of the assessment. The third stream is Alberta trade material: jewellers' and manufacturers' scrap, bench waste and dental gold from practices around the city. Energy-sector Calgarians also show up in our mail-in queue after portfolio clean-outs — partial positions trimmed while prices are high, older bars swapped for current issues. Whatever the mix, it is itemized on arrival so the offer you hear is built line by line, not guessed from a parcel's weight.
The mail-in process, step by step
First, call 1-888-944-6539. We register your shipment, note what you are sending, and give you packing and insurance instructions — this call is what connects your parcel to your name the moment it arrives. Second, ship your gold fully insured with tracking, following those instructions. Third, on arrival your items are weighed and tested — XRF analysis as standard, fire assay where a definitive result is required — and we contact you with the results and an offer priced from the live market. Fourth, you decide. Accept, and payment is made the same day. Decline, and everything is returned to you insured, at no obligation. Your gold remains your gold until the moment you accept.
Why not just use a local cash-for-gold shop?
Sometimes a local counter is the right answer — if it tests in front of you and prices transparently, use it in good health. But Calgary sellers who compare often find the walk-in options are jewellery-first operations buying at retail-scrap logic, while a bullion dealer's mail-in desk prices from the live market because it resells and refines into that market daily. The other difference is accountability: our counters also sell gold to Calgary buyers at live prices, run a public online shop and answer to a 150-year-old family name. The main Sell to Us page covers commercial and refining lots in more depth.
