    Marcelo hooked me up. Chill environment and decent people. Ac was working, and they were negotiable. Music wasn't blasting either

    I have been a loyal customer of JRC Gold Exchange since the week they opened because I wanted to…read moresupport a local business. Over the past year, I have spent more than $11,000 with them and always felt that my business was appreciated. Unfortunately, my most recent transaction changed that impression completely. After placing a large order, more than two weeks passed without any shipping update. It took three separate requests before I finally received a tracking number. Tyler assured me my package would arrive the following Tuesday, but when I checked the tracking information myself, it showed that only a shipping label had been created. The carrier had not yet received the package. Because of the delay and conflicting information, I requested to cancel my order. Tyler told me that wasn't possible because the order had already shipped, even though the tracking information clearly showed otherwise. After asking to speak with the owner, I spoke with him briefly. Our conversation focused solely on how I wanted my refund issued. There was no discussion of the conflicting shipping information or the concerns that led me to cancel the order. Since I had paid by credit card, I requested that it be credited back to my card, but I was told a cash refund would be easier. When I picked up my refund, I was handed a large amount of cash with no receipt or documentation. After counting it at home, I discovered I had been shorted by more than $200. I immediately contacted the owner and returned to collect the remaining balance. Again, I was handed cash with no paperwork. Since the beginning of this issue, I have requested three separate times to speak with the owner to provide feedback about my experience. Each time I was told he was unavailable, in a meeting, or out of the office. Despite those requests, I have never received a return call. The true measure of a business isn't how it treats customers when everything goes right--it's how it responds when something goes wrong. I chose to support JRC Gold Exchange from the week they opened because I believe in supporting local businesses. Unfortunately, this experience left me feeling that a year of loyalty and more than $11,000 in business were not met with the level of accountability, communication, or customer care I expected. I will do business with Portland Gold Exchange in Sellwood going forward.

    Service is number one for me and let me tell you, Juan and his helper Marley are friendly people…read moreand don't look at you strange like other places in town. I been in maybe 20 times since they opened and will never use any other place to sell or buy gold. the neighborhood is safe, I can leave car unlocked ( don't do it) walk in and out quickly with money in my pocket. this place also pays the best and small family owned and operated. go in and see them, you won't regret it.

    So recently, I had a pair of AirPod Pros disappear, and after checking the locator app on my…read moreiPhone, I found them at this location. They were not willing to return them to me, even though I had a serial number and physical proof that they were at that location. I had to get the police involved, and over a week later were able to retrieve them. Total headache if you ask me. Key takeaways here. The staff was rude, unapologetic, and hesitant to return stolen property that they had unlawfully purchased. They obviously don't check if the items they purchase are stolen and have no problem making it a hassle for people to retrieve their stolen property, even when it's super obvious. I don't personally shop at pawn shops; they are a total rip-off, but I had no clue they were chop shops for illegally stolen products. Great business model there.

I even offer 50% more than their regular customer offer but nope they are still selling low to their friends, they hid things in the back and only bring out when their friends arrive, Ive seen couple time, i told them why you sell too cheap i can offer 50% more than what they offer you! And they told me yeah he's a regular customer so we only sell them to him....it's not their money so they don't care! This aint right... One time i was there i saw they selling $1 a piece to their friend, hopefully one day the bussiness owner will look into this because their employees have been cheating the company
