When selling your bullion to BullionStar:

The sell price for bullion is valid for Investment Precious Metals (IPM) in original bullion condition.

Bullion bars that do not qualify as investment precious metals will have its listed sell price reduced as follows:

- Gold Bar with weight 1 gram - 10 gram: 4 %
- Gold Bar with weight 11 gram - 50 gram: 2 %
- Gold Bar with weight 51 gram or more: 1.5 %
- Silver Bar with weight 31.1 gram - 500 gram: 6 %
- Silver Bar with weight 501 gram or more: 3 %
- Platinum Bar regardless of weight: 6 %

The listed bullion prices are valid for bullion in original condition. The price reduction for a bullion bar or bullion coin that is not in original condition depends on the severity of the damage and the loss of weight. The price reduction, assuming there is no loss of weight, normally ranges from 0.5% to 4%.

The indicative sell prices listed on BullionStar's website are only applicable for transactions in Singapore.
