Price and metal, side by side
Every listing has a price. SpotMelts shows the metal behind it.
A seller may be settling an estate, clearing pawn inventory, or closing an auction. Some listings leave out the weight or purity that matters. SpotMelts sets each asking price beside its estimated metal value, so you can decide which listings deserve a closer look. A useful price gap can be real, but it rarely stays open for long.

Every hour
See what the listing states, and what it leaves out.
When a listing states its price, weight, and purity, SpotMelts estimates melt value from current metal prices. Listings missing any of those stay in the catalog, marked as unchecked, until the evidence is complete. Listings confirmed as sold or removed leave the active catalog but stay in the archive.
1New listings are scanned.
2Weight and purity evidence are compared with metal value.
3Availability and the buying path are shown with their last check.
4Priced listings can be sorted by distance from melt value.

Questions buyers ask first
Know what the checks can tell you.
How often do new opportunities appear?
Sources are scanned every hour. Members see an opportunity as soon as it passes SpotMelts' checks; the public feed shows it three hours later.
Do you guarantee profits?
No. SpotMelts is a research tool for finding and ranking buying opportunities. Condition, fees, taxes, shipping, pickup, and resale assumptions are still yours to verify.
Do I need to know jewelry?
You should understand basic precious-metal terms such as karat, fineness, and melt value. The dashboard handles the comparison math and helps surface availability evidence.
Is this investment advice?
No. SpotMelts does not tell you what to buy. It helps you find listings that may be worth your own review.
Why not just search marketplaces myself?
You can. SpotMelts gathers listings in one place, keeps uncertain details visible, and lets you sort priced items by how close they are to estimated melt value. Recheck a seller's page before buying.
What about condition?
Condition still matters. Check wear, missing parts, shipping terms, and seller history before buying.
