03 · Get paid

Cash, Zelle, wire, or check.

If you accept, we pay you on the spot the same day. Most clients leave within 15 minutes from front desk to payment.

For larger transactions we also offer Wire and certified check, your preference.

What we’re buying today.

Bring everything — even a tangled drawer of broken chains. We sort, test, and weigh each piece individually so you get paid for what you actually have.

Why people drive in from surrounding states.

There are a lot of gold buyers in NYC and Chicago. Here’s what makes ours different — and why our reviews look the way they do.

01

We’re the buyer and the retailer.

Most “gold buyers” flip your gold to a wholesaler at a markup. We are the wholesaler — servicing 15,000 retail accounts nationwide. That means no middleman, and a higher number on your offer.

02

30+ years in the jewelry business.

Founded in 1994. Same family-run business, same two locations in the heart of the NYC Diamond District (47th Street) and the Chicago Jewelers Row.

03

Transparent to the gram.

We weigh and test in front of you, on certified equipment. We’ll walk through exactly how the offer was calculated — spot price, karat, weight, market. No black boxes.

04

Paid the same day.

Cash, Zelle, ACH, wire, or certified check — your choice. The whole walk-in typically takes 15 minutes from front desk to money in your account.

Two offices. Both walk-in.

In the heart of the NYC Diamonds district, and on Jewelers Row in the Loop. Both run by the same family, with the same offers and the same process.
