Precious Metal Scrap Recycling
 Thunderbird Supply Company accepts sorted
sterling silver (including filings) and sorted gold-filled scrap for cash or trade value. Metals should be separated by type of metal, filings, soldered scrap and
unsoldered scrap. Sorry, we
no longer accept gold, silver-filled or base metal scrap. Scrap metal is processed 1-2 days from
receipt. All metals are weighed in troy ounces.
We offer 80% of the daily silver spot price for unsoldered silver for trade and
60% for unsoldered silver for cash, on the day the scrap is processed. For scrap
jewelry or soldered pieces, we offer 60% of the daily silver spot price for trade. For fine silver coins and bars, we offer 90% for trade and
85% for cash.
For gold-filled scrap, we offer 1.45% of the daily gold spot price, for either cash
or trade. For example, at a $900 gold market, ($900 x 0.0145 = $13.05) gold-filled
scrap would be worth $13.05 per ounce.
If you choose the cash option, a check will be mailed to the address you provide.
If you choose the trade option, a credit will be applied to your Thunderbird account
for a future purchase. When placing an order where the scrap credit will be used,
let your salesperson know so the credit will be applied.
