JTV Gold Exchange Program Terms & Conditions

Welcome to jtvgold.com (the “Website”) and to the JTV Gold Exchange Program. The JTV Gold Exchange is operated by MCG Interactive, Inc. (“MCG” or “We” or “Us”). MCG is a sister company to America’s Collectibles Network, Inc., which does business as JTV® and Jewelry Television® (“ACN” and/or “JTV”). Your relationship with Us will be governed by (1) these JTV Gold Exchange Program Terms and Conditions (the “Program Terms”), (2) the JTV Privacy Policy, and (3) our General Terms and Conditions (the “General Terms”). The JTV Privacy Policy and the General Terms are available at www.jtv.com and are incorporated by reference into these Program Terms.  If there is a conflict between the Gold Exchange Terms and the General Terms, the Gold Exchange Terms will control.

1. Overview of the Program. We purchase items made of gold and platinum (the "Items") for refining. In these Program Terms, we use the word "Metals" to refer to platinum or gold. After refining, your Items will be melted, and the Metals will be resold. The amount paid for your Items is based upon two things: (1) the total weight and purity or karat grade (pure precious metal content) of the Metals contained in your Items, and (2) the market value of the Metals according to the current London Fix (the price set during two daily bidding sessions in London).

2. What We Don’t Buy. We don’t accept silver in any form or items that are only plated with the Metals. You will not be paid for any stones in your items. We only pay for the gold or platinum itself. If there are stones in your items that you want to keep, you should remove them prior to sending in the packet. The stones will not be returned to you if you decide to sell your precious metals. We don’t accept Items which contain price tickets or other manufacturing tags or tickets. We also don’t accept investment metals (e.g., gold coins, bars, bullion, ingots) or timepieces (e.g., watches, pocket watches). To ensure you get the best possible price for these items, We recommend you visit another reputable source. We reserve the right to decline to purchase your Items for any reason at our sole discretion, including without limitation, declining to purchase those Items that contain insignificant amounts of the Metals or are otherwise of no value. If we don’t purchase your Items, We’ll return them to you at no cost to you.

Although we will generally buy Metals in any amount you wish to send, we have certain limitations:

•    No single shipment can exceed $2,500 in payout value;
•    During any calendar year, we will not make payouts to any single address that exceed $7,500; and
•    During any calendar year, we will not accept more than four packages from any single address.

For questions or for Customer Service, you may contact Us via email at jtvgold@jtv.com or by telephone at 1-800-913-8113. As We discuss more fully below, you can communicate with Us about the Program through either email or by telephone.

3. Requirements to Participate in the Program. You must be at least eighteen (18) years of age in order to sell Items containing Metals to Us. By shipping your Items to Us, you are representing that you are the legal owner of them, that you have the authority to sell them and that you accept the Program Terms. Selling on behalf of others is not permitted, either as an agent or as a representative of any other person or company.

You agree to provide Us all information We request concerning you or your Items. We will, for example, require that you provide your driver’s license number or passport number.  We reserve the right to decline to purchase your Items if We do not receive such information.

4. Summary of Our Procedures. You may register for the Program through the Website or by calling Customer Service at 1-800-913-8113. For registration through the Website, you should go to www.jtvgold.com. You will be asked to fill out a form requesting a Program packet (the "Packet"). For telephone orders, you will request a Packet and provide your name and address.

The Packet. After registration on the Website or by telephone, a Packet will be sent to you within two (2) business days (excluding holidays). The Packet will contain information about the Program, as well as instructions and materials to allow you to submit Items to Us, such as a prepaid shipping envelope and a resealable plastic bag for your Items. We will send you emails, if provided, when We ship your Packet to you and when We receive your Packet from you.

Evaluation and Offers. After We receive your Items and evaluate them, We will send you a response by email within two (2) business days (excluding holidays). If We decide your Items are appropriate for purchase, We will make an offer (the "Offer") to you, either by email or in a recorded telephone conversation, to purchase the Items based upon the PM London Gold Fix and the PM London Platinum Fix on the business day the packet is received. As part of the Offer, you’ll be able to watch a video of your Items being unpacked and weighed.

Accepting the Offer. Your acceptance of the Offer will be by email or in a recorded telephone conversation. If you accept the Offer (an "Acceptance"), you’ll be paid the sum in the Offer by check. We’ll mail the check within two (2) business days from the date of your Acceptance. We’ll send confirmation of your Acceptance either by email or U.S. Mail. By cashing, endorsing or depositing the check, you’ll also be confirming your Acceptance of our Offer and your consent to these Program Terms.

Rejecting the Offer. You’ll also have the option to reject the Offer (a "Rejection"). In that event, We will ship the Items back to you within two (2) business days. You will incur no shipping charges, and We will insure the package with your Items up to $500. We will send confirmation of your Rejection either by email or U.S. Mail.

If You Don’t Respond. If We don’t receive a response to our Offer within eight (8) days, We will send a reminder by email, if provided. If We still haven’t received a response from you within six additional days (a total of fourteen days from the Offer), the Offer will be withdrawn, and We’ll return your Items to you at no additional charge.

5. Other processing information. You can check on the status of your Items by going to www.jtvgold.com or by calling Customer Service at 1-800-913-8113. We’ll respond to any inquiries you have about the Program within two (2) business days (excluding holidays). The hours of our customer service department are Monday-Friday 9AM-7PM, Eastern Time.

If you don’t have an email address or if you prefer to communicate by phone, We will notify you of the Offer and receive your Acceptance or Rejection, as outlined in these Program Terms, by telephone in a recorded telephone conversation.

We will not finalize the processing of your Items until 12 days after your Acceptance of Our Offer. We call this our "Hold Period." By cashing, negotiating or depositing the check for the Items, you agree to waive the Hold Period. From time to time, we may offer bonus payments to those who accept certain Offers ("Bonus Payment"). Bonus Payments may take a variety of forms, such as checks or gift cards. By utilizing a Bonus Payment (e.g., cashing a bonus check or using a gift card), you agree to waive the Hold Period.

6. Proper Shipment. We reserve the right to reject delivery of any Packet, mail, envelope or package which appears to be damaged, opened, or tampered-with, and any such Packet, mail, envelope or package will be returned to you at no charge. We won’t have any liability to you for any such items contained in any such attempted delivery or in return of any such Items.

7. Insurance Limitations on Shipped Items. If you use the prepaid shipping envelope in your Packet, your items will be insured with the carrier for a maximum value of five hundred dollars ($500). It’s your responsibility to have the carrier electronically scan the prepaid envelope into its tracking system to ensure that the carrier accepted possession of the envelope. If you think your Items are worth more than $500, We recommend that you contact Us for further instructions. Any Items returned to you will be insured for $500. We will, in our sole discretion, choose the return carrier and receipt-verification method, if any, for each transaction. You agree that your sole remedy for losses that occur during shipment is to process a claim with the carrier.

8. If you change your mind. During the Hold Period or until you cash, negotiate or deposit the check for the Items or until you utilize a Bonus Payment (as discussed above), you can change your mind, revoke your Acceptance, and ask for your Items back. After your Acceptance, any revocation of Acceptance and request for your Items back (a "Revocation Request") must be in writing and received by JTV Gold Exchange, together with the check for the Items, within the 12-day Hold Period. The address for JTV Gold Exchange is Processing Center, 500 Quality Boulevard, Fairfield, Ohio 45014. To make certain that we know the Revocation Request is coming, We suggest that you notify Customer Service at 1-800-913-8113. We’ll ship your Items back to you at no additional charge. By cashing, negotiating or depositing the check for the Items, you waive your right to a hold period.
