Call before you go and ask whether they pay by weight for scrap gold, and whether you can pawn the piece instead of selling it. Bring a photo ID.

Fantastic jewelry repair service! The owner Tony and his son David run an honest family business. Tony did a great job fixing and resizing my wife's engagement ring after it got bent out of shape. The pricing was very reasonable but what was really impressive was the quick turnaround.
Two years after my divorce I was finally ready to sell my wedding ring. I went to 6 different places and this shop gave the best price. Well above the competition. They even took the time to explain how they arrived at the price. Very fair. I will definitely return if I decide to sell another piece.
I've started emptying my closets, and realized I could potentially sell some things here. For the first time, I sold some unused jewelry. The second time, I sold additional jewelry as well as a camera. Overall, I found the experience very pleasant and satisfying.
On a very cold Chicago day, I decided to step into this shop to sell some jewelry I no longer used. After reading the reviews myself, I wanted to see if their service was as great as people had described.
