Gem State Gold & Silver

Horrible Experience! Extremely uncomfortable atmosphere and do not recommend. Extremely rude and no idea what they want for pricing, Made a offer and said they are going to keep items for there customers! What in the world does that mean? I asked how much and could not give me a price…

I called to ask a simple question as I was cleaning out my collection…“what are you paying for a few silver rounds?” knowing spot at the time was 17.47. He responded whats a few? First red flag. I responded… a few, like three?! To my surprise, he then asks if it had a A stamp and something else that I can’t recall. I said «no, they’re just standard 1-​Troy oz silver rounds, in excellent, uncirculated condition. He then finds himself stuttering after giving a low-​ball offer of $ 16 flat after establishing the fact I knew something about the market. That’s a BIG red flag because after establishing some sort of knowledge he gives me 16, what is he quoting the poor mom that doesn’t know!!! Snake! Furthermore, what blows me away is what he adds «the silver market is collapsing from the high $ 49». I responded, «I wouldn’t say collapsing, down yes, collapse no. The high of $ 48.48 was back in 2011 and I got in the market in 2009 when it was about where it is today.»
Stay away from these jokers. It’s either that these people don’t understand the market of metals or absolutely taking advantage of people! Either way, these people need to find another job. An ounce of fine silver is an ounce of fine silver no matter how you slice it. A stamp and so on is just a way to lower the amount they’ll give you, a tactic of some sort. I’ve been to A LOT of gold/​silver coin shops in Ca over the past five years and I can’t remember a time where someone asked about a stamp on reg. Silver rounds.
There’s a guy in eagle across albertsons that pays spot. Very good guy, not a shark! Too bad he’s on vacation, but at least I can share my 2 – 3 silver coins with you and perhaps place the extra few dollars in ur pocket and not the Sharks!

Terrible Customer Service, he was too busy to come up from the back and look at coin. Extremely uncomfortable atmosphere. She even hung up on me when I asked how much they pay for gold. RUDE
