So grateful for this place. I buy, sell and trade a lot at Jewelry and Coin Mart. When I leave the…read morestore, I always feel good. Talking about selling a piece of jewelry when you're in need is a delicate matter. Even embarrassing to admit you need the money. Other "We buy gold" shops leave you with a demeaning of morale. I used to get the same scripted answer from other places: "How much do you want for this?" You name your price and they practically laugh at you and tell you you're not being reasonable. So they offer half of your asking price. Upon further inspection, they say they have to call their [ non-existent manager ] for approval. Then come back to say that they can only buy your piece for 1/3rd or less. They pick at any reason to make you believe your piece is nearly worthless. They tell you that you're getting a great deal. When you are not. Irene is kind, straight forward and upfront. No judgment or belittling. Either the shop can buy it or not. Irene has often redirected me to other shops who bought my items. Good ethics is good business.

He wanted to use his snow shoveling money to buy an America eagle silver coin for his collection. We got there and the owner (I believe) ended up selling him a coin for $103 / a 20% premium. Plus the coin he received had dark spots around the edges. It will be a learning experience for him; and we will never go back.

It was kind of hard to dig out and I figured it was all fine so I let it go. I came home and finally dug it out and saw the obverse looked terrible and this coin will be difficult to re-sell. Theres no way a coin dealer wouldn't have known this. He sold me this messed up coin at full price anyways without telling me one side looked like hell. So at best its buyer beware at this place. I'll never go back and he lost a customer over a $65 coin that he only made a few bucks for. Its the dishonesty that bothers me.

We were trying to both buy and sell coins. There was a purchase rate difference given to sellers between the owner (18x face value), and the employee (17x face value). The rates should have been the same. The owner quoted higher face value purchase rates than the employee. So sellers beware. I caught the lower rate and called the employee out on it, and he adjusted the offered rate upwards to where it should have been. I felt very comfortable working with the owner. Knows the business, very approachable, Has a good understanding of coins. The other employee used the lower rate on another customer while I was there. Thus you get the low stars review. After selling some of my inventory I tried to purchase coins from them. They had gone to a show the week before and sold most of their inventory. So that was the real drawback. There was hardly any inventory, so disappointing. I would like to give them another try, I just don't know what their normal business model is. Is it buying precious metals, or selling coins?

Their scale showed my bracelet at only 17.26 grams, and they tested it as 18K gold, even though I know for a fact that it is 21K gold. Based on their results, they offered me only $2,200. I then went to another pawn shop in Arlington Heights, where my bracelet weighed 25.7 grams and I was offered $2,600. The large difference in both the weight and offer raised serious concerns for me. Because of that, I will not be coming back.
