I wouldn't advise anybody to go to them. The whole thing was upsetting because of the way they acted. It was the scariness of the situation. She ran out on the street after me when I went to get into my car. She started threatening me. I'll never go back there.
Description of Work: They gave me $25 for my coins at first, they wanted to give me $20. They said only one was worth anything. They told me to come back and he gave me back the other two coins. When I got back, they wanted the $25 back and to give me back all the coins all together. I found out they were worth $200 from the company I originally bought them from. He said they weren't worth that much and he wasn't going to give me anything, he used ebay which is a poor source to me.

Description of Work: Shaker Coin & Jewelry appraised some estate items from my father's estate & bought some gold items. They were professional & took quite a bit of time to look at each item. They are located a bit of a drive from us, but I would go back to them again despite the distance. They even helped us out to the car & were concerned about our safety in the parking lot.

I unfortunately experienced exactly the same thing as the other bad reviews on this company. My concern in particular, is that a large portion of their customer base if estate related. He is verbally abusive and I would hate for someone who just lost a family member to be spoken to look he did me. I took a few pieces to him and he was about the rudest person I have experienced in my life. I showed him the pieces and he immediately stated that they were worthless and there was nothing I had brought in that he would be interested in. I told him I didnt even know if I would sell anything to him yet!When i iniitally called him he told me that he had been in the business for many years and that I could make an appointment to come in and he would be happy to educate me on the business. So I decided to go in, around 530pm. (They close at 6pm apparently) He seemed to be rushing me and just kept telling me that the things I had were worthless. I had other items, I didnt bring in that I wanted to show him. And he said if they looked like the items I had shown him, then to not bother. Maybe he is only friendly to you if you bring in items that he is interested in.
Description of Work: I took a few items into the shop to be looked at and appraised.

I went to the provider to have some jewelry appraised to settle an estate. When I got there I pulled the jewelry out and the jeweler looked at the jewelry and said he would take the gold chain but said he would not be interested in the ring or pendent. I told him I was not interested in selling the jewelry as I just wanted it appraised. I'd called before coming and said I wanted some jewelry appraised and was told they didi appraisals. I was then told they did not do appraisals. What a waste of time.

After checking Angie's List for guidance, a pleasant phone call with Jim Irwin prompted our family to meet with him to evaluate a coin collection and some jewelry from a family estate. We were welcomed into his business and felt very comfortable with his knowledgeable and fair evaluation of our goods and subsequently sold some of the items we had brought for him to see. He offered advice on the items he was not interested in and we maximized our return in taking his advice. I would highly recommend using Shaker Coin & Jewelry for any transaction.

Poor experience. Would not recommend them or go back again.
Description of Work: I took in coins from an estate to get values if we chose to sell. Staff was rude, degrading, negative comments about items I brought in; walked away from me while I had coins layed out/ I wanted to ask some questions, but was too stunned when they were dismissive and left me to pick up and put things away. i will NOT go back there to sell my coins!

I called to ask if I needed an appointment, and they said no. They evaluated the gold and silver in less than an hour and gave me what I believe to be a fair price. I had contacted 2 other places and both wanted to keep the jewelry for a couple of days, which I did not want to do -- and the price quoted on the phone by Shaker was higher than the price quoted by the other 2 companies.
Description of Work: They quickly (while I waited) evaluated the gold and silver jewelry items I brought for sale and bought them from me for what I believe to be a fair price.

Hedy is terrific and explained gold pricing and how she calculated what my gold jewelry was worth. Because they do not spend much overhead on advertising, fancy stores, etc. they can afford to offer a higher rate than other chain stores.

Selection is sometimes somewhat limited, but they always have fair and honest pricing. They let you take as much time as you need to view the coins before you purchase them.
Description of Work: I collect silver dollars and silver half dollars. They are able to provide some of these coins for me.

The experience at Shaker Coin and Jewelry Company was effortless and satisfying from the first phone contact. The owner explained to me in detail the criteria for evaluating the gold and silver coins that I brought to him for appraisal. He gave me generous estimates on the value of the coins, which I had previously evaluated. He purchased the coins from me there on the spot. The whole visit was highlighted by a brief talk on historical fluctuations in the market value of gold. I would highly recommend this dealer if you want to sell gold or silver coins.

r everything.
Description of Work: We had a rather extensive coin collection that we decided to sell to help us finance two sons in college. I called Shaker Coin to get some details about the process. We wanted to sell the entire collection - all or nothing. They said they would work with us. They bought the entire collection from us - even coins that they were not interested in. We had other estimates and knew roughly what the collection was worth and we received a very generous price for everything. The owner, James Irwin, was very patient and verified the value of each piece and explained to us why some coins were more valuable than others. He spent the entire day with us and we were very satisfied with the results.

We took our old sterling silverware set to another company that buys old silverware and we were given a price (we felt was fair) that they would pay us for the silverware. Then we looked on Angie's List, found good reports on Shaker Coin & Jewelry Co., and we took our set there for a second opinion. We spoke with Jim who offered us much more for our silverware. He was very pleasant, professional, and it was a very pleasant experience. Jim fostered a sense of trust just from his pleasant manner.

The service is very professional. Information regarding US minted gold coins is posted on the walls, so that coin sellers can determine what their coins are worth. The owner went over all calculations and asked if I agreed with the numbers. The owner used the same price for gold that I saw posted on the internet that day. Very above board.
