Gold is at an all-time high, and there has never been a better time to sell. We are a small business with low overhead. We are also a jewelry store that sells fine items at our location, which means we can give a better payout for your case-ready gems. We deal with our customers in person. No guesswork. No risky mail-ins. Get top dollar for your valuables today.
We prefer to do our consultations in person in order to ensure the security of our client’s valuables. A face-to-face meeting helps keep client’s informed and educated while they are present for their appraisals and gold testing. If a personal visit is not possible, please contact us to make an alternative arrangement.
We pride ourselves in making competitive offers and keeping a constant watch on the value of gold. The payoff will depend on karat or purity. After purity comes total weight followed by a “spot price” which is market value. If we can sell it in our store as a finished piece or you have high-quality stones we pay even more.
We pay instant cash for your valuables on the spot. If the amount you receive exceeds $3000 we will issue you a check for client safety.
No fine print. No hidden fees. We pay the entire amount of the agreed on price.
