GGS Buyers

Although the address listed was closed, I was quickly prompted to go to Oshri, who’s office was but a block south.
Solid service, and a more professional vibe than the venders lining the streets below.

I had an old gold chain circa 1980 that I hadn’t worn in 30 years that I wanted to sell. I saw the reviews for this place and I was very impressed. I did some research on the Internet to determine what I could get for a 1 oz. 14K gold chain — and it was supposedly around $ 700. I went here and presented the chain to a young man behind a desk. He offered me $ 450. I was expecting more, so I told him to give it back. Then some older guy came out from an office and started speaking to the young guy in Hebrew. They went back and forth and then the old guy offered my $ 495. The older guy was pretty gruff and arrogant. I declined their offer and packed up and left. I then walked down 47^th street and found a local walk-​in store in any alley way. I went inside and they gave me $ 602 on the spot. I took it. So my question is: «If I could get over $ 100 more from an off-​the-​street alley store — why does this place get such high ratings on Unilocal?» Maybe you should shop around? I would recommend finding someplace else to sell your gold.

I was trying to sell some gold jewelry that I know is worth a lot more then what some of these gold buyers were offering. I must to visited a dozen different shops and kept getting low balled. When I went to ggs buyers I was dealing with a very professional guy his name was Shai. He was very honest from the get go actually offered me a very nice price, I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to sell any Jewlery and get top dollar, and make sure you deal with Shai. He does not treat you like a little kid that is clueless like the other shops did that tried to take advantage.

I read other Unilocal reviews when I was looking for a place to sell some gold chains I don’t wear anymore, and came across GGS Buyers, all the reviews were good so I gave them a call and was treated very nice on the phone with no presser sales talk,
When I got there Sha Harir was very professional,
tested my gold in front of me and weighed it in front of me.
He gave me a fair price for my items in cash for market value for the day.
I would highly recommend him and his store, for 47^th St. is a jungle of fast selling scary stores, rip off’s and people.
His business is in a office building so you feel safe and people in the street aren’t
watching you or what your doing.
Truly a great place to sell your gold, and very fast too!

First off, I want to thank all my fellow Unilocalers for directing me to GGS with their great reviews. I had some old dollar coins and ugly, useless-​to-​me jewelry I wanted to sell. Problem was, it was silver, so «Cash For Gold» stores– of which there are many– didn’t really seem to fit my needs. Besides, those stores come and go, I was looking for a well-​established buyer.
GGS is located in a multi-​use office building, so as a lady, I was grateful that no one would know where I had been and maybe try and rob me. Plus, there were no people on the street trying to lure me in like Carnival Barkers. Classier than most of the Diamond District.
Shai Harir was very polite, and walked me through the steps of selling my old scrap. He let me know what each test was for– magnets to prove metal composition, and scratch tests to prove purity. He tested and weighed items in front of me, so I had 100% confidence in selling. I like transparency. Other stores had Unilocalers commenting that items were weighed/​tested without them looking, and I feel that means the other stores could be swindlers. GGS and Shai were very courteous, and honest. They even have other locations around New York City, and they not only buy (at this location), but they also sell at others.
I walked out with more cash than I thought I would get. Cash I desperately needed, I might add (times are tough, you know). I had looked online, and figured I’d get a lot less than I actually did for my items. Shai was even kind enough to explain what other coins they buy (turns out, they purchase certain types of British, Canadian and American coins). They also purchase gemstones, platinum, gold, silver, and precious-​metal watches.
I absolutely recommend GGS to anyone with a need or desire to sell their silver or gold. Now, to dig around for more scrap! I will now be a loyal seller, because they are trustworthy, knowledgeable, and honest.
PS The elevator in the building is pretty cool. It’s all digital and a computerized voice informs you ‘doors are closing’. Not that I’m reviewing the elevator, GGS more than earned a five-​star review. But the elevator was just icing on the cake.
PPS Anyone who’s read my reviews of other businesses knows I am tough to please, it is rare that I give five stars. Keep that in mind, GGS really went above and beyond.

I needed quick money for my upcoming vacation so I said to myself, won’t I just sell some of my old gold jewelry that I don’t wear anymore so I went on google & 3 gold buying spots came up. I went to the diamond district area, paid no mind to the street hawkers guys with their aggressive approach which is kinda scary since I’m a girl, got a estimate from the first 2 spots but I said to myself, let’s try ggs buyers even tho I thought a got a great offer already. I walked to ggs, a man name Shai was there to help me out, he separated my jewelry from my 14kt & 18kt pieces, tested them out with some gold acid test, weighted it out in front of me which the 2 other spots didn’t really let me see the number on their scale which I thought was a little shady, long story short, Shai gave me a way higher pay out then those 2 spots and I was very pleased & more happier because I chose to get a 3^rd estimate which I should of came to the first place. Thanks GGS Buyers!!! Highly Recommended!

Great place to sell gold, I was in and out in 5 minutes. They use the price of gold for the day as you can find yourself on
and adjust for the purity of gold you are selling and the small profit they need to make to survive. Honest, legit and a no no-​nonsense place to sell gold.
