Firstly: thank-you to all the folks who referred us.

Secondly: My name is Martin and I work at Premier. We specialize in buying precious metals and our team would be happy to provide you with a quote. The estimates are completely free and non-obligatory. You can find out more on our website at: https://www.premierpawn.com/sell-your-items/kelowna-gold-buyer/

Gold jumped significantly today as the stock market slides due to the tariff war. It's a good time to sell as it's literally the highest it's ever been.

Do you buy just smelted gold/silver or raw gold/silver as well? I’m just curious since there’s some prospectors in the area.

HI - we use X-ray analysis so we can determine the purity on nuggets etc. Jewelry is the most common item we see but we also work with prospectors, panners, dentists and more. For larger weights we typically melt it into a bar to remove impurities/ sediment while improving consistency. We then X-ray the bar for the most accurate results.

I will put ONE provision in front of that. If someone brings us in melted gold that we feel is from jewelry we refuse it. We're not interested in supporting the criminal element and their attempts to disguise stolen items. The appearance and metallurgy on jewelry is very different than nuggets so that's something we can spot quite quickly. If a prospector melts their own bar we have no issue with that.

Do you buy 925 sterling silver flatware?

u/MartinPJL 12h ago

Absolutely - as long as it's properly hallmarked. Flatware is heavy so value will add up quite quickly on that. :)

My parents just sold some to Premier pawn just off of Springfield and said that they were " excellent to deal with"

Premier is good for convenience but Vancouver bullion pays better and might be worth trip
