I have been to their downtown location a number of times and as I'm somewhat of a shopper, I have scored what I consider good deals by going to their website beforehand and checking out their Daily Specials. Pricing is clear and beyond that, I've liked everyone that has helped me to this day-good people for sure and I highly recommend paying them a visit.

I went in to sell an piece of platinum. I was surprised by the barbershop in the back, but it gave the business a unique feel. The customer service was very friendly and accommodating. I got a fair price for my piece, had a lovely conversation, and bought a book while I was there. I highly recommend this business.

Like that they post prices on the website. Not sure yet how I feel about being $30 back of spot on Australian moon landing coin compared to $20 back for generic bars.
