The detail
Monthly Gold Special — Terms & Conditions
1. The offer
The Monthly Gold Special is a recurring promotion operated by [Aventine legal entity] (“Aventine”, “we”). A Spot+ Pass (“Pass”) grants the holder one-off public access to the Aventine+ subscriber buy rate: a single sale of approved eligible items at 101% of live gold spot price, transacted exclusively on Trade Me. This release is presented by Aventine+ in conjunction with C&B Auctions.
2. Pass purchase and validity
Passes are valid only during the monthly window: the 2nd to the 10th of each month, inclusive. Each Pass entitles the holder to one transaction, which must be listed and settled within the window in which the Pass was issued. Passes are non-transferable and do not carry over to a later month. Aventine may vary or withdraw the promotion at any time; Passes already issued for the current window will be honoured.
3. Eligibility
Eligible items are recognised world gold coins below 99% fineness, including Sovereigns, Krugerrands, Britannias dated 2012 or earlier, and USA Gold Eagles. Fine-gold coins and bars of 99% fineness or above are not eligible. Aventine determines eligibility and approval at its discretion, and approval is confirmed in writing before listing.
4. Pricing
Payouts are calculated using the actual fine gold content of the approved items, the applicable live NZD gold spot price at the time of confirmation, and the Spot+ rate of 101%. Confirmed prices are locked for settlement on the agreed business day. No indicative valuations are provided before verification.
5. Transaction limits
The maximum transaction value is NZ$20,000 per day. Holdings above this limit require additional Passes and separate approval, subject to availability.
6. Settlement
All Monthly Gold Special transactions are completed exclusively on Trade Me with Ping. Approved items are listed by the holder in accordance with our written confirmation, and Aventine completes the purchase directly through the platform for immediate, verified payment. Delivery or collection arrangements are confirmed at approval.
7. Platform fees and refunds
The Pass holder, as seller, is responsible for any applicable Trade Me fees. As at the current time, casual non-trade sellers pay no success fee on Trade Me Marketplace; Ping’s seller transaction fee, currently 2.19%, applies.
8. Important — on-platform only
This offer is conditional on the transaction occurring exclusively on Trade Me. Any attempt to solicit or arrange a transaction outside Trade Me will result in the immediate voiding of the Pass and this offer.
