From Surfers Paradise to Coomera: How Far the Free Gold Kit Reaches

From Surfers Paradise to Coomera: How Far the Free Gold Kit Reaches

Selling gold in person is great if you're already heading to Southport. Less great if you live in Coolangatta and the round trip is two hours including parking. Or if you're up at Hope Island or out at Tamborine and the prospect of fighting the M1 isn't appealing.

That's the entire reason we built the free Gold Kit to work for every Gold Coast postcode equally — and beyond.

How the kit works (60-second version)

  1. Order a free Gold Kit — takes about a minute online

  2. We post it via Express tracked Australia Post — usually arrives the next working day on the Coast

  3. Pop your gold into the supplied tamper-evident bag and the prepaid satchel

  4. Drop at any Australia Post outlet — no postage to pay

  5. We email an offer within 48 hours of receipt

  6. Accept (paid same day) or decline (returned free in the same insured packaging)

You never pay for postage either way.

Coverage across the Gold Coast

There's no part of the Gold Coast region that isn't equally well-served by the kit. A quick survey of the suburbs we ship to regularly:

Far north: Ormeau, Pimpama, Coomera, Upper Coomera, Hope Island, Sanctuary Cove, Helensvale, Oxenford Hinterland: Tamborine, Mount Tamborine, Canungra, Eagle Heights, Beechmont, Numinbah Valley Central: Southport, Labrador, Ashmore, Benowa, Bundall, Surfers Paradise, Main Beach Southern: Broadbeach, Mermaid Beach, Mermaid Waters, Robina, Varsity Lakes, Burleigh, Burleigh Waters, Miami Far south: Palm Beach, Tugun, Currumbin, Currumbin Waters, Elanora, Bilinga, Coolangatta, Tweed Heads (yes, we cover NSW border too)

Same kit, same pricing, same 48-hour decision window — regardless of your postcode.

Why it's just as good as visiting in person

People sometimes worry that posting jewellery is somehow less "real" than handing it over in person. From our side, the process and pricing are genuinely identical:

  • Same XRF testing equipment for purity

  • Same certified scales for weight

  • Same daily AUD spot price used in the calculation

  • Same percentage of spot paid out

  • Same written breakdown with weight, purity, spot price, percentage

  • Same 48-hour decision window

The only thing that's different is whether you watched the testing happen in front of you. The result is the same.

How safely is my gold actually packaged?

Each kit ships with Two layers of protection:

  1. A bag that you seal at home — once sealed, it can't be opened without obvious damage

  2. A prepaid Express Post satchel — Australia Post's secure tracked service

When the parcel arrives at our Bundall office, it's opened on camera, weighed against the declared list, and processed through our chain-of-custody system.

Where to drop the parcel

Any Australia Post outlet works. Locals' favourites by area:

  • Coomera / Hope Island: Coomera or Pimpama Post Offices

  • Helensvale / Oxenford: Helensvale Plaza Post Office

  • Southport: Nerang Street Post Office

  • Surfers / Broadbeach: Pacific Fair Post Office

  • Robina / Varsity: Robina Town Centre Post Office

  • Burleigh / Miami: Burleigh Heads or Miami Post Offices

  • Palm Beach / Currumbin: Palm Beach Post Office

  • Coolangatta / Tweed: Coolangatta or Tweed Heads Post Offices

  • Hinterland: Tamborine, Canungra, Beechmont Post Offices

Or any small newsagency-style Australia Post Local — they all accept prepaid Express satchels.

Tracking

The moment your kit ships, you get an Australia Post tracking number. You can follow it to your door, then track the return parcel back to us. We email you the moment we receive it, and again the moment your offer is ready.

Coomera to Coolangatta — same service

Whether you live in the northern growth corridor or down by the NSW border, you get the same kit, same pricing, and same speed of service. The only thing that changes is the postcode on the satchel.

If you'd like to give it a try, order a free Gold Kit — it'll be on its way within one business day, and you can deal with the rest at your own pace.
