Unlisted services are live pages that are not in the navigation. | Read-only |
| request_postal_pack | Orders a free insured postal pack for a person at a Republic of Ireland address and returns the Bosca number. This is the real order: the request is created when you call it, and for gold lots within the postal limits the pack is posted to the address given with no further step from the person. Silver, mixed lots, bullion and lots over 2,000 euro are registered and arranged on WhatsApp instead; the response says which happened. The person gets a receipt email with a single-use cancel link. Before calling: have the person's name, full address with Eircode, email, phone, what they are sending (gold, silver or mixed) with a rough description and rough value, their agreement to be contacted, and their agreement to the terms statement in accepts_terms. Explain the process first (get_postal_pack_info): items weighed and XRF tested on camera, an itemised offer at the live published rate on the day of testing (no payout is promised), free tracked return if they decline, insured in transit up to 2,000 euro, paid by bank transfer the same day they accept, one photo ID checked before payment. Lots worth more than 1,000 euro can be brought to us in person in Dublin, by appointment, and tested while you watch; message us on WhatsApp to arrange a time. Smaller lots go by post. Do not collect or pass ID documents. Errors name the field to fix. | Changes data |
