    I got a pretty good price selling my coins. The selection was also pretty good in terms of purchasing, but since it's a smaller place they don't have anything to crazy. If you're looking for selection coin shows would be better, but PGS is very convenient for the needs that I was looking for.

    Delightful working with Rachel! Painless process and we will definitely be bringing more pieces in! I support the previous reviewers who thought the parking was kind of hard to find (you want to turn into a subdivision and then hang a right into the parking lot and then go up the stairs to the front door). Look for the giant gold urn!

    First time entering a coin/bullion shop. I was expecting to have to negotiate but did not have to at all. I was able to purchase some silver for a fair value. The place was very professional and trustworthy. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the experience!!

    I asked PGS to evaluate my collection that contained the items listed on their website (see below) in very good condition. They took it, held for a several weeks, and told me they were not interested without evaluation/appraisal (which I didn't mind paying for). I was not in a hurry, but... I didn't mean just storage but appraisal. PGS states this : "Perhaps you’ve already resigned to sell your stamp collection or parent’s stamp collection, but aren’t sure who buys stamps near you, so that old box of stamps remains in storage with no use to anyone. Maybe there was a point you already tried to sell your stamps or stamp collection, only to find there was little interest and few resources in your area to inquire of. Did you ask neighbors, friends & family “Is there a stamp dealer near me that buys stamps?”. When you are ready to sell your stamp collection, PGS Gold & Coin stamp buyers have multiple coin shop locations where you can have your stamps appraised, and where you can sell the whole stamp collection. PGS GOLD & COIN STAMP BUYERS COLLECT THESE TYPES OF STAMPS: Mounted Foreign Stamp Collections China, Korea, and Asia Stamps British and European Colonies Russia..." If nothing else, I wanted to know what my stamps were worth (in their estimate). Their radio ad, "PGS, PGS, when it comes to your valuables, it's the best" might be true for themselves but not for me.

    Mother and I walked in for the first time, we had 3k to buy silver. We figured we should jump in with the rising price. We were treated like trash. Lady pushed us away to the glass case. Didn’t even get up. I then asked if they had any tubes of American Silver Eagles, to hint we had money to spend. She said it would be expensive and continued on her computer. My mom told me she wanted to leave Please join me in going to another location. About the place in fair review. : hard to find parking, but good sized parking lot if you find it. Stairs and as far as I can tell you must walk up stairs. The line starts in the hall way. Old carpeting. Quiet and spooky at first. They buzz you in and out, which we appreciate for safety. Also, pricing was not good. ***They said silver rounds started at 86. Other shops had starting 79 for good coins. JM Bullion has 85 for American Silver Eagles. So, do research. What wasn’t right. *** Anyway, I said “Thank you Ma’am, always have been respectful since my time in the military and even though he took a call to do business with them. She said bye. A VERY SMALL collection of silver.
