I chose to study this place to determine if I should let them handle my own collection, and decided to publish my final findings in regards to this business. 100% my opinion from the position of 3rd party unbiased (as possible).
To me in my opinion, I would never trust their knowledge, opinions, or honesty with your collectibles or other valuables.. all in all, my opinion they are nothing less than intentionally unethical, self destructive and toxic with intent to inhibit growth and promote decay ....and they do it all WILLINGFULLY......
I feel they are a bad juju company. They prey on others by flattery, and also by exposing desperation of others. Like knowing a person needs money bad, so offers a lesser than "normal" approach to "commodities" if the guy senses urgency or emergency necessity in potential clients. (Otherwise if you pretend you don't "have" to sell coins, jewelry, etc. But just wanted to check value and take home your stuff, or buy more he will offer more, compliment your knowledge/etc. but still way less than his "social cues" suggested. )
Personally, I feel the place has a feeling of having a repertoire of pseudo high class entitlement, with a touch of phoney "Expert and dont-you-know-who-I-Am" aka Reese Witherspoon syndrome (just a joke for lightning the mood) when you meet them. (They have no repertoire as I am aware at the moment, but it feels like they believe they do) The tactic of use here is "Turkey-Fattening" (If you are buying a coin, he then talks about how he buys coins too, shows them off, states how much for, and how great a deal he gets buying at said price, yadda yadda yadda..... BUT THEN if you are selling a coin, the sentiment is how hard it is to sell coins, and they only buy certain kinds, usually not very valuable, but you should just hang onto them, because values are low for any coins you have. He can only give so much because of lack of economic confidence) .... Very vulture like scavenging/harvester approaches.
COMPLETELY blind to propositions of legitimate beneficially skewed to his end deals with 100% clear profit in sight. (Offer a fresh crisp $20 for his $10 bill because you like the dollar portrait printed orientation and he may say "no way you obviously know why this one is uniquely more valuable." I'm sure he believes that bait all the way up until he kicks himself for greed when he realizes his folly of "F.o.m.o. Fear of missing out", definitely preys on others deficiencies, instead of desite to help to build stronger relationships and improve the growth of community.
**All coins referenced are various common 1 oz or less silver coins. (Basic commodity with low fluctuations in value over course of study.)
Q. How do I know this? A. I never cared about the money, I 100% cared about the integrity, honesty, and ethical intentions of this place. The coins were the variable not the other way around. 😎
**The coins and the $20 dollar for $10 analogy is purely for explanation of the reference point of their intentions and ability to interpret and interact with clients in regards to their ethical nature. Values and denominations and commodities used have been changed to prevent misinterpretations of others and prevent any ability of a rebuttal or manipulative excuses.
I studied this, so these are my compiled results and my findings. NOT my complaint.
Bonjour, Enjoy your coins Mr....
Read moreI have stopped in this business many times since I work nearby, and every time, I have been amazed at the lack of service and professionalism. I had my wedding band resized there once, and when they cleaned it up afterwords, they buffed a part of the ring that was supposed to have a satin finish, to a high shine. Then in order to fix their mistake, they took the ring to a wire wheel to reduce the shine, except what they REALLY did was gouge and scratch the gold irreversibly. Another time, I went in to buy coin collecting books, and after standing at the counter staring at the owner and one other worker (who were staring at computer screens ignoring me) the police officer who is there to provide security, actually asked my wife and I if we needed help. Apparently that got the owners attention, who was then short and rude with us (and as another reviewer experienced, was told all of the prices were old, and not correct any longer). We went to Executive Coin in Stow and spent over $300 on coin collecting supplies. I now make the drive to stow every time, because THEY know how to...
Read moreWent in today to offload some silver and purchase some new coins and have never seen such a bunch of unprofessional workers in my life. Instead of standing at the counter assisting me with finding what I was looking for, the old man sat at his desk shoving his mouth full of food while half ass answering my questions. I asked if they carried any Silver Canadian Maples and his response was..."I don't know, you will have to come back during the week, I don't know what we have". I also asked the price of a graded coin, there was no price so I asked them to look it up, I got the answer of "EBAY has them for xx amount of dollars"..... C'mon seriously, Ebay????? Apparently they did not even know what spot price was for the day. I asked if they would buy silver bars and their response was "Not unless its over 500oz" ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!!! Worst coin establishment by far, I will not be going back. And knowing that this was a store that JM Bullion recommended that I check out, you will believe that they will be getting a report of your service as well. DO...
