Stopped by here a few weeks back to sell off some old jewelry I'd been holding onto for no real reason. The person who helped me walked through everything step by step, which I appreciated since I had no idea what half of it was actually worth. Brought in a mix of stuff, def some random pieces from years ago, and they tested each one right in front of me. Everything was straightforward, no weird pressure to accept on the spot. Got cash same day which made it easy. Honestly thought I'd get less since one piece was this broken bracelet from college that I figured was junk, but they explained the karat value and I walked out with more than I thought. Took maybe thirty minutes total. Would go back if I come across more stuff I don't need.

The space feels low-key and Private, which I appreciated since I was selling some old Anniversary jewelry. Got a solid cash Offer on a few pieces I thought might be worthless, and it took around twenty minutes. Works well if you need quick liquidity without the typical pawn shop chaos.

brought in some gold chains i didnt wear anymore and walked out with way better cash than expected. i was pretty surprised to get much for the broken ones but they weighed everything out and gave me a super fair price. it took maybe 20 mins tops and the person who helped me was super chill about explaining what each piece was worth and why. def appreciated how straightforward it was with no weird pressure to sell or anything like that. just came in on my lunch break and got it done quick which was perfect. prob gonna bring more stuff next time if i find any 🙌🙌🙌

I sold a gold crown (tooth) at Royal Element. This was my first time selling gold. Constantine explained the process of checking the quality first then offered me a good price. Process was quick and easy. I would go back in the future.

I had a bunch of gold chains and mismatched earrings sitting in a drawer for years. I finally decided it was time to sell them, and I'm glad I did! I walked out with more cash than I expected. The testing process took around 20 minutes, and I was paid immediately, which was perfect since I had other errands to run. Honestly, the whole experience was much easier than I imagined. Highly recommend!

Visited this location, lovely looking office space. Looking to part ways with items passed down the family. Looking at today's rate and weight, etc. Went in with 11.4g, looked at the Karate tester which was high 22K (reading upside down), but this early-mid twenty year old, when asked what training he went through, wasn't able to give a professional response. But gave a quick acid test, couldn't tell me what he was looking for. Asked if it was international. And then pulled out a calculator stating that it was barely 21K, at 11.4 offering $707. Thankfully I had my partner look up the rate (117.44) for today even with smelting loss, which is typically .5 to 1 g off. This buyer was giving 1/3rd the value. Young kid, looking to make a profit by lessening value based off made up numbers.Owner was on a computer in the background, older gentleman. Each response to other's poor experience on Yelp and Google that is ridiculous from the establish. Beware seller. Congrats, public knowledge of gold practices are regulated and has laws that are enforced. This post is proof of shady practices.

Brought in a few random pieces and the offer was pretty solid considering what I'd been quoted elsewhere. They walked me through the whole thing, which I appreciated!! Honestly made me feel way more comfortable leaving with Cash than I expected. Good spot if you're splitting up old jewelry. 👍

My cousin who lives in the area told me to check this place out instead of going to the usual spots back home. Stopped in with some old jewelry pieces I'd been hanging onto and honestly the whole thing was way smoother than I expected. The person who helped me walked through every piece and explained what made each one worth what it was worth. Got cash on the spot which was nice. Ended up getting more than I thought I would for everything. Definitely beats the mall jeweler I tried last time I needed to sell something. My cousin was absolutely right about this one!!

walked in with some old necklaces from years ago and didnt think id get much since half of them were tangled or missing clasps but they weighed everything and explained what made the gold worth more than i thought (turns out my grandmas pieces were higher karat than the newer stuff)

brought in a ring i was given years ago but it just sits in the drawer. figured might as well cash it in. walked in not expecting much. the appraiser looked at the setting and stone, weighed it, said it was solid 14k with decent clarity on the diamond. took maybe ten minutes to go through the testing. offer was way higher than expected based on scrap value alone. left with cash in hand, no paperwork drama, felt good about it. solid move for a celebration fund (i mean who doesn't love extra cash). would def go back when i discover more pieces. great group spot if everyone's decluttering together honestly!!

Visited during a weekend trip and had some old pieces we'd been meaning to deal with for ages. Walked in and the appraiser took time explaining what each piece was worth and why. Super knowledgeable about hallmarks and karats. Got a fair cash offer on the spot, way better than I thought it would be?? The whole experience felt secure and straightforward. Didn't feel rushed or pressured at all. If you're traveling through and have jewelry sitting around, def worth stopping by. Left with cash same day.

Had three estate pieces appraised this afternoon. Walked in around 6:15 and got through it faster than I expected. The appraiser tested each one, weighed them, and showed me the markings. Told me what I was actually holding. One ring I thought was white gold turned out to be platinum. Didn't know that. He explained the difference in value (genuinely helpful). Offer was higher than what I'd seen quoted online. No back-and-forth. Just straightforward numbers. Took the cash. Everything wrapped up in maybe thirty minutes total. Clean transaction. No pressure to sell if I wanted to walk. Didn't feel rushed even though they were closing soon. Would use them again if I need to offload more pieces.

Five stars because I walked out with more than I planned on getting for a random mix of old jewelry I had sitting around. Brought in a handful of things I never wear anymore, couple rings, a chain that broke years ago, and some pieces from my grandmother's collection that just weren't my style. The guy behind the counter walked me through each item, weighed everything, checked the stamps, explained which pieces had value and which were mostly sentimental. I appreciated that he didn't rush through it, took the time to show me why certain things were worth more than I 6thought. Got cash right there, which was the whole point. The entire thing took maybe half an hour. Definitely better than trying to sell online or dealing with those mail-in services where you just hope they're honest. Would go back when I come across more stuff I don't need.

Honestly thought I'd get lowballed but they gave me really really good cash for the old jewelry I never wear anymore. The person doing the appraisal took time to explain the karat marks and why certain pieces were worth more. Wish I'd come here first instead of wasting time at other places.

Stopped in last Saturday afternoon with a ring from my grandmother that I'd been putting off dealing with for months. The appraisal was really thorough, weighed everything, checked the hallmarks, explained exactly what the stone was and why the setting had value even with some wear. Got offered way more than I expected, which was such a relief since I'd been worried about getting lowballed. Payment was cash right there, no waiting or paperwork which I appreciated. The person who helped me was patient with all my questions about the karat weight and how the pricing worked, taking time to break it all down. Walked out feeling good about the decision instead of that weird guilt I thought I'd have. Needed the money for a birthday thing and this made it possible without stress. The whole process was straightforward and respectful

Used to go in person all the time but honestly delivery has been a game changer... brought in old jewelry that was just sitting around and the appraiser walked me through everything, cash was solid. They explained the weight and karat breakdown which made it feel super transparent. Got more than I expected for some broken chains and a single earring. Recommend having them come pick up if you've got pieces collecting dust.

Had our three month old with me and needed to sell some inherited jewelry while visiting my brother nearby. Walked in not sure what to expect with the Baby in tow. The person behind the counter was super super patient while I juggled the carrier and pulled out everything from the bag. Tested each piece right there so I could watch the whole process, explained which items had the most karats and why a couple rings weren't worth as much. Honestly appreciated how chill the Atmosphere was, no pressure to decide on the spot. Got cash for most of what I brought and it took about half an hour total. Clean setup, quick in and out, and the baby stayed calm the entire time which is honestly half the Battle these days. Def recommend if you're trying to sell gold or old Jewelry and want a straightforward experience.

Very friendly and fast! I sold a gold chain and he paid me cash right on the spot. I will say though I was a bit confused at first, I came on a Saturday and the building they are located in keeps the doors locked on the weekend, but I called and he answered immediately and came down to let me in right away.

Google Maps gave me direction to the back of the building to a dead end but I walked around the block and was able to find it and I’m glad i did. I believe their prices are more fair than any pawn shop would offer. I’m happy and will be back in the future for sure.

Very professional, easy to deal with - I recommend this place if you are in Vancouver area and want to sell precious metals. I went to get quoted on silver bullion coins and they paid about $8 less per ounce versus the current spot price, which seems like an ok price to me when comparing with the other coin/jewelry shops in the area. There is some paid street parking in front of their building and it was a fast transaction, they just weighed and inspected the coins and cut me a check.

So I was really impressed with the level of service that I got at this place! I had a gold necklace that I needed to sell...They tested it right there...weighed and made me an offer! I wasn't really impressed a whole lot with offer-But called the next day...and he gave me what I wanted for necklace! The impressive part was how hard this man went above and beyond for anything that I asked of him! Had a problem cashing check-So went back...and he wrote 2 checks-To help make it easier to cash...(There was a 2500 limit for cashing non customers checks per day) Then after that,the bank still gave me problems, I would never bank at Chase bank!!! It was Christmas eve...and I called this place Royal Element to see if that gentleman was there that helped me the day before! He was,or wasn't there? Not really sure...But he heard the problems that I was having,and said he would just meet me at the bank to get it figured out! He went out of his way to help me,when he didn't have too!!! It's because of him that I had a good Christmas...I was able to shop for loved ones...and it relieved so much stress that I highly recommend this place! His name was Constantine,and he was such a blessing! Really nice,proffesional,and mostly honest! These are qualities that are hard to find when you're selling something. Especially if your in a bind...or needing money ASAP. I want to thank Constantine for all he did for me...and never once did he make me feel like I was a bother! This is a 10/10 for me...Future business will definitely be in the cards for me,with them!!!!

Whole process only took about 10 minutes. Super simple! Glad I went :)
