Not happy with gold king ? asked him many times for the paperwork that I signed and he refused to give me a copy, telling me that NO ONE EVER ASKED HIM BEFORE! I was warned
About going there but did so because of convenience,,,he knows what he did ? took advantage of a senior!!

Martha and Marty are my favorite people!! I can not rave enough about this awesome company!! Their environment is so welcoming and the absolutely pay the best prices! I went to 4 places to sell an item and the guys at Gold King blew their offers out of the water! I’ll never go to a different shop! All around a fantastic experience!

A+++ I highly recommend taking any jewelery or antiques to the Gold King on Startown Road in Hickory. I recently had to part with some jewelery and took my items to several gold/jewelery shops in Hickory to be appraised. The Gold King offered me the most and didn't try to haggle me like those other shops. Marty, who I spoke with, was very courteous, welcomed me and started offering help as soon as I walked in. All of my questions were answered and he really seemed to have the most knowledge when it comes to jewelery and antiques compared to other shops. I was paid in cash and even escorted out the door to make sure I made it to my car safe.

The experience was very good. They explained how they tested the gold and it was a quick transaction.

It was a comparable price compared to other providers in the area. I felt the man was a grumpy but he was very straight forward. I probably would go back again but at the time at the same time I could easily go to someone else.
