Our daughter has been taking Guitar lessons from Ben for over a year. We love Ben as does our…read moredaughter. Ben really cares about his students. Period. From the quarterly recitals that he orchestrates to practice challenges to periodic get togethers, Ben is in it for the kids. Ben's price structure is not the cheapest but he pours so much into his entire program. Bottom line, he gets it and he cares. Ben is always seeking feedback and ways to improve. Our daughter loves her 40 min. weekly lessons. She is always ready for Ben and is engaged for the entire lesson. My wife and I want to support a teacher like Ben and hope other families will find him for their child(s) musical journey.

We can't believe how much we have enjoyed our weekly music lessons with Ben. We started with our…read moreson, and now have our 2 younger daughters also participating. He is so amazing at engaging everyone and catering to their interests and levels. Even with Covid, we have shared many outdoor lessons, zoom lessons which are still GREAT, and at home masked lessons starting with the game "Am I Smiling" while watching eachother's eyes above the mask. He truly has a gift for connecting with people of all ages and music interests!!

That's the feeling I had when I walked in this establishment and I should have listened to my gut.

I've driven past Gold King on Startown Road and Highway 70 for years but had never stopped in until…read moreI recently started downsizing. I had a few items to sell, and from my very first visit, I could tell I was dealing with someone who is honest, respectful, and genuinely kind. What really impressed me was when I found an old gold ring I no longer needed. I arrived at 5:58 p.m., just two minutes before closing. The door was already locked, but he saw me, came to the door, and took the time to help me anyway. He never made me feel rushed or like I was inconveniencing him. I honestly thought I might get around $30 for the ring. When he offered me $230, I was absolutely floored! I'd heard people say Gold King pays some of the best prices around, and now I know it's true. One thing I really appreciate is that he's extremely knowledgeable. He clearly knows his business and takes pride in what he does. He's fair, honest, and respectful, but he's also experienced and knows the value of what he's buying and selling. That gave me a lot of confidence that I was dealing with someone who truly knows his craft. They also have a gaming store right next door, which my son enjoyed checking out. It's a great place if you're into video games and collectibles. If you're looking for a place that's honest, fair, knowledgeable, and offers excellent prices, I highly recommend Gold King. I'll definitely be back!

I found them to be very professional, honest and knowledgeable…read more I returned the next day with some old sterling silver goblets and again felt the price he offered was very fair. Would recommend Gold King to anyone looking for an honest fair evaluation. karen S

Do I knew if she was happy with them that I would be also. They are very compassionate to older ladies such as myself. I had alot of questions as I had never bought silver before and knew nothing, and they were very patient with me too. They give you their undivided attention, which I really appreciated . I had several types of items that I brought with me to get appraised,and I felt like they were very fair with me. A couple of things the man told me hold onto for now. So I bought four rectangle silver "bars" (I know next to nothing about the "lingo" of this type of business . I am so blessed that my friend Leona told me about this coin shop.
