Choose a Gold Buyer You Can Trust


It seems there are people buying gold at every turn these days.

You know it's crazy when you see a corner barber shop with a big "We Buy Gold" sign in their window.

You'd like to sell your unwanted gold while the market is still very high, but how can you be sure you are taking it to a reputable buyer that will pay you top prices?

Valley Goldmine will gladly put their record against any other, and is happy to explain any mysteries in the gold selling process. It's really quite simple. These are some questions they are often asked:

What types of gold can I sell?
All types of white, yellow, and tri-colored gold jewelry, and gold pieces such as coins, small nuggets and dental scrap. Valley Goldmine will also buy your platinum and sterling silver items.

How can I know I am dealing with a credible gold buyer?
Sell to professionals that know how to accurately weigh and grade your pieces.

Valley Goldmine has years of experience and many affiliations in the jewelry industry, and values its A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.

Visit their website to see the news videos, especially the ABC15 Investigators report where Valley Goldmine offered up to five times more for the same necklace than was offered by four local gold buyers and the major national mail-in buyer.

Also consider this: "How can local or out-of-state companies spend thousands of dollars on newspaper ads and expensive hotel conference rooms, hire temporary help, and still pay me a fair price?"

How can I be sure I'm being paid the most for my gold?
Go to the top. Sell to those who buy in large enough volume to receive the most competitive pricing from the ultimate refineries.

Valley Goldmine achieves this by combining gold bought at gold parties, and at private appointments in their Arizona, Denver, and Las Vegas offices, along with the large amounts they buy from many local jewelers.

That gives them the ability to pay the highest prices to their customers.

I've never sold gold before, and I'm nervous!
You will meet with Valley Goldmine in a safe and secure private office. There is never any fee, obligation, or pressure to sell any of your items.

What about the gemstones in my jewelry?
Valley Goldmine will have their jewelers properly and safely remove any stones you wish to keep for a future use, free of charge.

I'm thinking about having a Gold Party - how do they work?
You gather your friends and family to let them MAKE money, not spend it!

With a Valley Gold Party, they will appreciate the opportunity to privately sell their unwanted gold for the highest prices.

Then Valley Gold Party thanks you for your efforts by paying you 10% of the total dollar amount purchased.

Your guests will have lots of fun and the chance to win great prizes, such as diamond earrings, cash, and gift certificates.

Another great idea is to use a Valley Gold Party as a fundraiser for your organization. We've been proud to be part of many hugely successful events for schools, community activity centers, and charities, such as the recent "Rally for the Cure" held at Phoenix Country Club to support Breast Cancer Research.

It's the "Painless Fundraiser" that is perfect in these hard economic times when it is so difficult to ask supporters for more donations. Instead you are asking them to help your cause by coming to receive money!

Valley Goldmine will be happy to answer any other questions.
