Amazing experience here they were super friendly and helpful. Even though I showed up only to sell such a small amount of silver they still treated me like everyone else and had great knowledge and were very respectful.
Ethan Haywood Google review
What a welcoming and professional experience today! I came in to sell my Sterling Silver flatware and I had my four year old grandson in tow. Drew was so warm and friendly to us and immediately put me at ease about the process. He was kind to my Grandson and respectful to me. He explained the process thoroughly and was very quick and efficient especially given the amount of silverware he needed to sort through and test. He gave me a very fair price and I left with cash in hand. It was an excellent experience and I will definitely do business here in the future! Thanks Drew!
Jess G-B Google review
Wow! Best professional experience I have had in my whole life. Trent looked after my sister and I. He was so kind and patient as he helped us understand the whole process. We had all sorts of coins, gold and silver left to us by old parents and loved ones and we needed the education. The place was busy and I see why. Everyone we spoke to had nothing but great things to say. Whether you are buying ot selling, this is the place to go! My sister lives in Oregon and I was visiting from Alberta in Canada.
Judy Griff Google review
While downsizing the family home I made an appointment to take in a big box of old silverware and miscellaneous jewelry to have appraised and to sell. I was attended by Drew Postma. He very patiently and thoroughly went through every item and gave me fair market value offers on each piece. Very happy with the experience.
Gregory Donohoe Google review
We worked with Trent. He was very friendly and easy to work with. We got a fair price for our silver and gold. I would highly recommend this business.
Dave Myers Google review
I just love this place! There are dealers closer to where I live, but I would rather drive the 40 minutes to deal with these guys. I go about once a week. They are honest and trustworthy. Kaiden takes great care of me, and call when he gets something in that he thinks I will like. The other two guys, Drew and Trent, are amazing as well! You can't go wrong dealing with these people!

Audio Testimonials from Real Customers Selling Silver

Hear From Our Customers

“We had some family heirlooms that have come through, including a bunch of coins, silver, that type of thing. We're trying to cash those in because we're not planning on keeping a hold of them. ... The first time I came in, I came in and asked a bunch of questions, got plenty of response, got plenty of information, and gladly walked out with what I had and didn't sell anything at that time. Which made me think they're not just after that product, they're not after the sale.”

A customer

“I was willing to sell some of my silver and thought I would come here ... Really nice, comfortable place to come to. Clean and very calm. That's the way I felt. It didn't feel like you were going into a bunker or a bank or anything like that. It felt like you were going into a really friendly business. And if you've got junk silver or any kind of silver at all, if you've got coins or rounds, I would bring them in and definitely sell them here.”

A customer

“It was very professional, and I was treated with a lot of respect and dignity, and that's why I wanted to come back. It seems like there's a lot of honest rapport, and that trust is built. ... If you're not sure, bring it down here, and they'll tell you if it's worth anything or not. And it doesn't take very long, and then you know.”

A customer

A customer

  1. 1 Test and Weigh An XRF assay gun reads the exact metal content in seconds, with no scratching or acid. Then we weigh it in grams.
  2. 2 Price It at Live Spot Your offer is based on the market price at the moment we test. We pay more than anyone else in Salem.
  3. 3 Get Paid the Same Day Accept and you're paid before you leave. Decline and you take your silver home.

Hear From Our Customers

“They explained all the steps, it was clear and concise wording you weren't, if you had a question, they addressed it immediately and at several points they would ask if you want to continue and you can decide. But before any marks were made on the jewelry, they would ask if you're satisfied with the price. They explained why they were doing the marking and that satisfied. ... If you start with one person, the person stays with you throughout the entire process.”

A customer

“I knew that when I came in here, this was where I wanted to do business because everybody treated me very cordially and respectfully and everybody has a good demeanor and they made you feel like a friend, not a client. That was nice. ... I've watched even the people that bring in stuff at the counter and then they count them out, tell them what it's worth and give them the money. Just the way you treat people makes people want to come back here and do that, you know.”

A customer

“I sell jewelry to them. I had a lot of questions, they answered a lot of questions, they went through every single piece and took the stones out of whatever I had and everything and you know, nice guys to me. I always felt I got a fair deal, you know, they went with current markets, you know, so they always had that posted and everything and you could see when it was up or down or whatever.”

A customer

“I was nervous at first when I came in, but I feel fine now. The more familiar you get, and the more questions you ask, and more conversation, you gain a certain level. And it's light and bright in here, and I do like being buzzed in. So, yeah, I feel safe. And I just want to add one thing, that you explained everything. When we had questions, you explained them, and you went into detail about how coins are assessed, or how the value is determined.”

A customer

“Yeah, it just gave us a secure feeling I enjoyed the experience watching what she was doing there I had seen the type of equipment used when gold mining but I had never seen it in this particular Situation where you was actually checking the value of the ring itself in front of us right here It wasn't back in a corner somewhere. They come out and tell us what it was”

A customer

“My experience was always excellent. The people behind the counter definitely know what they're doing and know what they're talking about. Always willing to assist and help in any way that they can. I've definitely had at least three or four transactions. Every transaction is done very professionally and well done.”

Questions About Selling Silver in Salem

Straight answers to what people ask us before they come in.

Still have a question?

Call (503) 400-5608 or ask our team when you visit. No appointment needed.

Do I have to come in?

No. You can use our mail-in program to sell without visiting the shop.

What items do you have in stock?

Our inventory changes depending on what we buy and sell. Call us at (503) 400-5608 for more info.

What is an ounce of silver worth right now?

Spot silver is trading around $53.60 per troy ounce. On bullion coins, bars and rounds we pay close to the live spot price. Silver jewelry and flatware are paid on actual silver content, based on the metal content we measure. Rates shift daily and vary by product.

Are some coins worth more than face value?

Yes. US dimes, quarters and half dollars minted before 1965 are 90% silver. At today's spot of about $53.60 an ounce, a pre-1965 quarter holds several dollars in silver, far more than 25 cents. Check dates before you spend a jar of old change.

Should I pawn my silver or sell it?

Pawning is a loan: you get a fraction of the value, pay interest, and can lose the item. Selling gets you the full agreed amount right away with nothing to repay. If you want cash rather than a temporary loan, a direct sale to a buyer who tests and weighs your silver pays more.

Is now a good time to sell silver?

Silver swings harder than gold in percentage terms, so timing depends on where the price sits against what you paid and what you need. A quote costs nothing and commits you to nothing, so you can see exactly what your silver is worth today before you choose.

Does anyone pay full spot for silver?

Be wary of anyone promising 100% of spot. Refining, testing and liquidity all cost money, so a payout of exactly spot is not a sustainable business. An honest buyer publishes a clear percentage and sticks to it. We pay close to the live spot price on silver bullion, sometimes more on in demand products.

Can silver lose value?

The metal never disappears, but its dollar value rises and falls with spot, so an item can be worth less this year than last. Tarnish is only cosmetic and removes no silver. Collector premiums can fade as demand cools, while melt value stays tied to spot.

What cut do silver buyers take?

Think of it as a payout rate rather than a cut. Scrap silver jewelry and bullion are both priced from the metal we measure and the live spot price. The difference covers refining, testing and market risk. Purity, condition and volume set your exact number.

Which silver items sell fastest?

Standardized pieces: American Silver Eagles, generic rounds and bars, and flatware stamped Sterling or 925. Their purity is known, so they are quick to value. Unmarked scrap takes longer to test, and plated items marked EPNS or Silverplate carry no real melt value.
