Pricing and Order Terms
Do you lock in my price over the phone?
Yes. APMEX locks in the price of your product over the phone so you are not at risk of any market or premium movement while your metals are in transit.
What happens if I don’t send in the Precious Metals after a price has been confirmed?
Once your transaction is confirmed, we are expecting you to ship your metals to APMEX within one to two business days. If you are shipping using APMEX Logistics, there is no need to notify APMEX of the tracking number. If you are shipping to APMEX on your own, we require that you notify APMEX of the tracking number of the carrier you selected to ship. You will need to provide your tracking number by calling us at (800) 514-6318 or by responding by email to the purchase order confirmation within one to two business days. If we are unable to verify that your order is in transit, APMEX is subject to cancel your order 7 business days after the order is confirmed. Additionally, if your order is canceled, you will be liable to cover any market loss we incurred by accepting the order to buy from you in addition to a $35.00 cancellation fee. This is covered in our Market Loss Policy. Furthermore, you will not be permitted to buy or sell to us in the future, until any applicable fees are paid in full.
Can I cancel my order?
Once we have issued a confirmation number, all prices are locked-in whether buying from us or selling to us. It is not our intention to enter into buying and/or selling transactions, accepting the risks involved only to have them canceled. However, we realize rare situations happen where orders need to be canceled. Should you elect to cancel and/or offset your order, you must do so during normal business hours of 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. (ET) Monday – Thursday or 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (ET) Friday. All cancellations are subject to our Market Loss Policy plus a $35.00 (USD) cancellation fee. Cancellations may only be approved over the telephone. At that time, if any market loss to APMEX has occurred, it will be calculated and added to the $35.00 (USD) cancellation fee. If applicable, you may elect to pay any market loss by credit card at that time or, we will invoice you by email, in which you will have thirty days to pay the amount due in full. Furthermore, you will not be permitted to buy or sell to us in the future, until any applicable fees are paid in full. Any market gain on cancellations shall remain the property of APMEX.
Shipping and Packaging
Do you offer an insured logistics solution that will get my products to you safe and sound?
Yes. We offer a fully insured shipping solution through APMEX Logistics. You’ll receive a prepaid shipping label at our discounted rates, along with clear instructions to help your items arrive safely and securely.

Yes. APMEX provides step-by-step packing and shipping instructions to help protect your items in transit and support any carrier claim if an issue occurs. Following these instructions ensures your shipment remains eligible for APMEX Logistics coverage.

In Transit and Security
What happens if my package is lost in transit?

If your APMEX Logistics package has not delivered to APMEX on or within one business day of the estimated delivery date, contact an APMEX representative. We’ll work directly with the carrier to begin a claim. A drop-off receipt for each package is required to start this process.

Lost-in-transit claims typically take 10–15 business days from the estimated delivery date to resolve. If the package is confirmed lost, you will receive the insured amount for that shipment.

If you used another carrier outside APMEX Logistics, please contact that carrier directly with your tracking information and also notify APMEX if the package is confirmed lost or significantly delayed.

What happens if my package is damaged in transit or the contents are missing?

APMEX records video evidence of all packages upon delivery, including any visible damage. If your package has a shortage or appears tampered with, this video evidence may be used to support a claim.

If you followed APMEX Logistics packing instructions, an APMEX claims representative will update you after we submit the claim with the carrier. Concealed-shortage claims typically take 10–15 business days from delivery to resolve. If tampering is confirmed, you will receive the insured amount for the missing contents. If the carrier determines there was no tampering, coverage may not apply.

If you used another carrier outside APMEX Logistics and your package arrives damaged, an APMEX representative will contact you to help resolve the issue, and our delivery video can still assist in the claim.

Do you have an internal security team that monitors all freight activity from origin to destination?
Yes. Our internal freight carrier security team monitors each and every one of our incoming and outgoing packages for any unusual activity.
Can you provide video surveillance of my package arriving at APMEX and being processed, if needed?
Yes. APMEX receives, checks-in and processes every order under video surveillance. In the event there is a discrepancy with what you send and what we receive, APMEX will gladly provide you a copy of the video for your records.
Processing and Order Status
What happens if I accidentally send you the incorrect product?
APMEX processes all packages under video surveillance. If you do send us items that we did not purchase or send the incorrect item, an APMEX representative will call you to resolve the discrepancy. In the event this happens, you will receive a new price for the product we received. If that new price is not acceptable, APMEX will gladly return the item at the seller’s expense, which will be deducted from the existing order total. APMEX cannot remit payment to you until the discrepancy is fully resolved.
Will you keep me updated on the status of my order?
What happens if APMEX finds a discrepancy with the items I sold and the items you receive?
If your package arrives and the contents are not the correct quantity and/or ounces that were originally sold to us, an APMEX representative will contact you to resolve the discrepancy. In certain instances, there could be Market Loss involved, please see our Market Loss Policy. APMEX cannot remit payment to you until the discrepancy is fully resolved.
Fees
Do you charge a receiving fee?
No, when you sell your items to us there are no receiving fees. The prices quoted are the prices we will pay.
Are there any other hidden fees for selling to APMEX?
No, there are no hidden fees for selling your items to us. It’s just that simple.
Tax Forms and Reporting
What is a W-9?
A W-9 is a Request for Taxpayer Identification Number and Certification. It is a commonly used IRS form that individuals and businesses provide to businesses that are paying them.
Why would I need to fill out a W-9?
There are certain purchases of specific products in specific quantities that require APMEX to file a 1099B. In order to file a 1099B, we must have a W-9 completed to have the necessary information in order to file that form.
How do I know if I need to report my purchase and/or sale?
APMEX is not a financial/tax adviser and therefore cannot provide tax advice. We suggest contacting your trusted financial/tax advisor to determine if there are any tax implications of your purchase/sale of Precious Metals.
What is a 1099-B IRS form?
One of the purposes of IRS Form 1099-B is for a Precious Metals dealer to report the proceeds of customer sales to the dealer of any of the Precious Metals from the IRS Reportable Items List. If you have additional questions, please consult a tax professional for details on your specific tax situation.
Why is this form required to be filed?
The 1099-B form is used to report any proceeds paid to a non-corporate seller to the IRS. This reporting enables the IRS to determine whether individuals who may be selling items as a source of income have properly reported the income from those sales on their tax returns. If you have additional questions, please consult a tax professional for details on your specific tax situation.
When is a 1099-B filed?
Dealers are required to file a 1099-B form when a customer sells the minimum quantity of any Precious Metals product that is included on the IRS’s Reportable Items List. Reporting specification varies depending on the specific coin or bullion piece(s) sold. If you have additional questions, please consult a tax professional for details on your specific tax situation.
Which items are IRS-Reportable items?

The IRS has specific rules related to reportable transactions that require a Form 1099-B to be filed and those rules are included in the Form 1099-B instructions on the IRS website. The following are guidelines provided by ICTA related to Precious Metal sales, and these guidelines, as well as the IRS rules, are subject to change at any time without notice.

Gold Bars 0.995 Any size bars totaling 1 Kilo (32.15 troy oz) or more
