Outstanding Bullion Dealer
I highly recommend this outstanding bullion dealer. They are polite and professional people who are so helpful and knowledgeable with many decades of experience.
I have been a customer for over 20 years ((mostly recently the last 18 months) I have never had any problems or even glitches in ALL of my dealings with them.
Chards are the most competitive dealer with their selling premiums and also when they are buying bullion, this is clearly shown on their website, that’s something I’ve never seen with any of their competitors.
I highly recommend Chard’s if you’re buying or selling bullion 10/10.

I have used this company over a dozen times. They have been flawless every time. Also they pay at least scrap value for precious metals, unlike other companies.
