I called in and asked for some assistance on selling the gold i had. The person who answered the phone did not identify himself and when i told him the amount of gold and quality he blurts out that he cant go any higher than 1000. I knew this was incorrect and was about to ask for clarity when he came back forget that I will give you 450. You can understand that I was very confused at this point and if he had given me the option earlier in the conversation i would have told him that I was familiar with the prices for gold. At this point i told him that the amount he was offering was less than 25% of the golds value. He sighed loudly and angrily told me do you want to know what i will offer or are you calling to tell me what you know and hung up on me.
I would never recommend this Pawn shop. I called ABC Gold & Silver promptly as I have had luck with them in the past and he was kind and told me that because I was selling pure gold there isn't much room for profit and if given an offer I should not take less than 80% of the value. I didn't go to him because I was on the other side of town and had limited time to finish.
