Had a great experience with Paul when selling a watch to him that had been in my family for a while. He was fair and transparent in his valuation and also gave a clear explanation of how the price was determined. From the first time I got in touch there was honest communication with no pressure. Stress-free and fast payment. Highly recommend. Thanks Paul and the team.

Selling Gold
From the moment I spoke to Paul, I felt reassured & confident with the advice & guidance he provided to me, regarding the items I wanted to sell. After arranging a face to face appointment, the price I got for our gold was more than anywhere else I had researched. Paul provided that personal experience with no pressure to sell. Would 100% recommend contacting Paul if you want that no pressure personal experience.
