Exceeding Expectations! (again)

This week, a customer came in to sell a large 14k necklace that she has had for years. She had previously taken the same item to a well-known heavily advertised competitor for a quote as well. When we tested, weighed and priced the item, she was in shock: $870.00 was the offer she received at Sell Us Your Gold.
How much did the competitor offer her? $500.
Our price nearly doubled that of the well known competitor - suffice to say, that the customer was very pleased with her experience, and disgusted at the lowball offer she received elsewhere.

She also stated that she wished she sold her previous items to us - because she knows that she could have received more at Sell Us Your Gold!

This story is something that we are hearing daily - with satisfied customers visiting our Gilbert and Scottsdale locations. Not sure? See for yourself - come visit us at either location, and you will receive a consistent customer experience in a safe, courteous and professional environment.

Another Record Day!

As we transition into October, we are seeing a continued upward trend in the Gold, Silver and Platinum markets. All three metals have risen sharply - with Gold being the most intriguing. As of today, the Gold market has risen to $1316.00 per ounce, which is another record.
This would be an ideal time to sell your broken, scrap or mismatched items - and get paid record amounts for it! We continually adjust our pricing to fit market conditions, therefore our payouts have been skyrocketing recently!
Come visit our Scottsdale or Gilbert locations, and we will outline the entire process for you. We will separate the items, conduct a brief test, and you will be paid on the spot. Enjoy a cool drink on us, get paid, and leave a satisfied customer. That is why the majority of our business are repeat and referral customers - because we focus on the customer experience.

They Paid You What???

Here is a true story that we are passing on from a recent Sell Us Your Gold customer. This customer came into our Gilbert location a week ago, and wanted to receive pricing on her unwanted gold jewelry. After our resident experts tested the items and calculated the pricing based off the market value - we told her the price: $166.00.
The customer was truly astonished - and here's why. She saw a commercial on TV from an un-named (large firm) who encourages customers to mail in their gold. She thought to herself, "Hmm...this looks easy enough." Little did she know that she was in for an epic battle.
She requested one of those gold kits that many of these places advertise - a prepaid envelope sent to your front door. She followed the instructions and sent the very same items that she brought to our store. Her total payout? $11.00.

That's $11.00, just in case you thought this was a typo, or the decimal was misplaced. Suffice it to say, the customer was furious. She escalated the issue to the mail-it-in corporation, who initially met her frustration with very little empathy. Finally, after weeks of haggling, and the threat of legal action overhead, the firm finally relented and sent her items back intact.

We have heard many similar stories, and the moral of the story is: Sell your items to professionals. You should be there during the transaction, to see the entire process. Sadly, many people just accept the payout that they receive from these firms, and are being cheated out of hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. By just taking her items into Sell Us Your Gold, she received over 15 times what she received from the competitor.

She was truly happy after selling her items to us - due to the speedy, precise and professional nature of how we conduct business. Come visit our Gilbert or Scottsdale stores to see for yourself.

Records Are Meant to be Broken!


Another week, another set of all-time highs for the Gold Market! Although the gold market was previously thought to be of the bubble-variety, it is now becoming clear that these high prices are going to be around for a while.
We could be seeing the market hit unthought of levels such as $1,400.00 per ounce, according to some analysts. If you have been hanging onto your old, unwanted jewelry for years and years and are now thinking about selling - now is the time! We continue to be a market leader in terms of our pricing, adjusting upward as the market continues to rise.
Remember, Sell Us Your Gold does not deal in small print, and does not require minimums in order to receive the best pricing. We offer a professional, consistent experience that has helped us gain our stellar business reputation. Judge for yourself, come by and see either of our locations - Scottsdale or Gilbert. You will receive an up-front honest assessment of your jewelry items, and most importantly Maximum Value on your Gold, Silver and Platinum items.

Another Resurgence in Gold Prices!


With the latest upswing in the gold market - $1,228.00 per ounce as of Friday, it is once again a great opportunity to sell your broken, scrap or unwanted items. Many analysts had predicted that the gold market cannot sustain above the $1,200 mark, however we have seen it cross this historic threshhold for the 3rd time in the last calendar year.
Each subsequent time that the market crosses the $1,200 plateau, we are seeing higher levels of resistance, i.e. $1,215/ounce in December, then over $1,250 just a few months back. The prices generally have dropped, however are stabilizing at higher levels each time. Many analysts say that the market may cross over the $1,350/ounce range by December. The truth is, that nobody knows for sure - but it is interesting to examine the trends that have taken place over the last year.
This only means good news for the consumer: Higher payouts for your gold, silver and platinum items. Now the question remains: Where should you sell your jewelry and coins?
Beware of unscrupulous dealers that are tending to pop up on every corner, as many are looking to make a quick buck. Within the last year, we have seen many of these type of outfits come and go - reason being that they are not in the industry for the right reasons. Also be wary of outfits promising hundreds and hundreds of dollars of "bonus cash" or gas money in their advertisements. If they have to add hundreds of dollars in bonus cash, it is likely that their up front pricing is not high.
At Sell Us Your Gold, we treat all our customers with integrity and honesty. Visit our Gilbert or Scottsdale location, and you will see how professionals handle the art of purchasing your jewelry. We ensure that you are comfortable with the process, and offer highly competitive pricing.
The proof is in our clientele. The majority of our business is through repeats and referrals. It is not about one transaction, it is about building a long-term business relationship. We conduct business in a safe, professional environment - and have changed the landscape of the gold buying business.
