Why the gap exists
Underpriced metal isn't generosity. It's friction.
A seller may need to close an estate, clear pawn inventory, or finish an auction. Some listings leave out the weight that matters. A useful price gap can be real, but it rarely stays open for long.

Questions buyers ask first
Know what the checks can tell you.
How often do new leads appear?
Sources are scanned every ten minutes. Members see a lead when it clears review; 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. But every minute spent searching is a minute someone else could be buying. SpotMelts continuously scans new listings, scores them against metal prices, removes unavailable or low-value opportunities, and brings the strongest candidates to the top before you ever open a marketplace.
What about condition and privacy?
Condition still matters. Check wear, missing parts, shipping terms, and seller history before buying. We use account information to provide sign-in and member access.
