Built for your working day

A mixed purchase, clearly recorded.

Choose Scrap / Multi-buy in the buy-in form and add the pieces you are buying. Each item or group has its own line, so a mixed purchase keeps the detail your team needs later.

  • Item description, carat, gram weight and quantity
  • Agreed prices with a line-by-line breakdown
  • Seller and payment details kept with the purchase

The detail that matters

The buying details you need to get right.

Different carats. One customer. One purchase.

Buying a 9ct chain and an 18ct ring from the same customer? Give each its own line, with its own carat, weight and agreed price. Keep the purchase together without losing the detail of what you bought.

12.70g should stay 12.70g.

Small differences matter when you buy gold. Record weights in grams to two decimal places, with the carat beside each item, so you can look back at the detail you entered.

A price each, or a price for the group?

Record the agreed price per item or for all the items on a line. Stockbox shows the item price and line total, with the purchase total brought together for you.

A practical way to work

From the counter to the next sale.

  1. Start with the seller

    Find an existing customer or add a new one, then choose Scrap / Multi-buy in the buy-in form.

  2. Record the pieces and price

    Add item lines with carat, weight and quantity. Choose the pricing basis and enter the agreed prices.

  3. Complete the buying record

    Record the payment amount and method. Capture the signatures and print the buying agreement when you need it.

  4. Choose what happens next

    Push a piece to stock for resale, or create an onward sales order from selected scrap lines.

After the purchase

Selling scrap on?
Go straight to an order.

Create an onward sales order from selected scrap lines without first creating a stock product for each one. Keeping a piece to sell through your shop? Use Push to Stock instead.

Follow the linked order from the buy-in record, so you can pick up where the purchase went next.

The buying paperwork

Keep the seller, payment and agreement together.

Record who you bought from, when you bought it, how much you paid and the payment method. Capture customer and staff signatures against the purchase, and print the buying agreement when you need it.

A few practical questions

Know how it will work.

Can I record different carats in one purchase?

Yes. Choose Scrap / Multi-buy and add separate lines for the pieces or groups you are buying. A 9ct chain and an 18ct ring can each have their own carat, weight, quantity and agreed price within the same purchase.

Can I enter decimal gram weights?

Yes. Stockbox records weights in grams to two decimal places. A weight entered as 12.70g stays 12.70g on the buying record, alongside the carat.

Can I price items individually or as a group?

Yes. Choose Price per item or Price for all items for the purchase. The choice applies to each line: Price for all items covers the quantity on that line. Stockbox shows the item price, line total and combined purchase total.

Do I need a stock product before selling scrap on?

No. You can create an onward sales order directly from selected scrap lines in the buy-in record. If you are keeping a piece for retail sale, you can use Push to Stock instead.

Can I keep seller details and print a buying agreement?

Yes. Keep seller details, the purchase date, payment amount and payment method with the buy-in. Capture customer and staff signatures against the purchase and print the buying agreement.

Can you demonstrate the process using a typical purchase from my shop?

Yes. Show us the kind of scrap-gold purchase your team handles and we will walk through the process with you. We offer a shop visit, a personal demonstration and one month’s free demo-store access. Live setup, data preparation and additional services are agreed separately.
