Be honest about buy back prices. Gold went up 12% and yet they offered me 3 grand less than what I purchased for.

Thanks Pure Gold Company.

I was really pleased with my experience with the Pure Gold Company and particularly with Nicholas Paul, who was extremely patient and helpful throughout the process. As a first time investor I found their investment guide very useful and I appreciated the one to one discussion on allocating my funds after I had decided to invest. There was no hard sell just helpful advice when needed. I would highly recommend this company and would be very happy to use them again in future.

I was thinking of investing in gold and contacted The Pure Gold Company.

I was thinking of investing in gold and came across The Pure Gold Company, I requested a brochure which was useful overview of the service they provide which was helpful.
They then gave me a call to discuss the various options available, I must say they were great at explaining it all especially discussing the tax advantages with the various coins and bars available.
Very helpful and not at all pressurised I went ahead with them and received a great service very reassuring and quick and easy.

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!

32% Loss

I was utterly shocked and horrified last week when I asked the Pure Gold Company for a valuation on my Gold investment and they came back with a figure that was 12% less than the original Capital sum I invested. That, in a year when Gold has gone up at least 18%, is absolute daylight robbery, in my humble opinion. The Pure Gold Company want me to accept a valuation that gives me a loss of over £100,000. To be honest I feel much worse off than if I’d just left my money in the notoriously corrupt Bank.

In matter of fact, I ought to be in profit.

I ask you, the Pure Gold Company - What is going on? How can you conscience this despicable and disgraceful behaviour?

To anyone looking at buying Gold, please avoid this company, as there is money to be made in precious metals, but not with the Pure Gold Company.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We take all customer concerns seriously and are committed to ensuring transparent and fair transactions. We acknowledge the challenges and concerns raised in your review and would like to address them comprehensively.

Upon further investigation and after subsequent communications with you, we understand that you have since sold your gold back to us within your desired timeframe and have realised a profit on your investment, despite the initial short-term valuation concerns. It is also important to note that the price you paid for the coins was lower than all competitors, and our buyback price was considerably higher than the competition. You held your investment for only 11 months and still achieved a profit. We always suggest that gold and silver should be viewed as long-term investments, yet despite selling prematurely, you were able to see positive returns.
Gold valuations can fluctuate due to various market factors, including spot price changes, demand and supply dynamics, and specific terms of purchase and sale. These fluctuations can sometimes lead to temporary discrepancies in valuations. However, our goal is always to provide accurate and fair valuations based on current market conditions.

We are pleased that your investment ultimately yielded a profit and that we were able to facilitate a successful transaction for you. We apologise for any inconvenience or confusion experienced during the initial valuation process.

Your feedback is invaluable to us as we strive to improve our services and ensure a positive experience for all our clients. Should you have any further questions or require additional assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to our customer service team.

Best wishes,

The Pure Gold Company

Good all-round service for first-time investors in Gold

I looked at several different companies offering gold purchase and since The Pure Gold Company offered a competitive rate (to buy and sell), guaranteed buy-back and advisory service, I opted for them, and have been entirely satisfied. Not having bought gold before, I appreciated being offered pros and cons for different purchase options, and storage, so I could make an informed choice.

I continue to be a very satisfied client

I recently sold some inventory with TPGC to realise profits.
I found the process responsive, easy to navigate, professional and friendly.
I remain convinced of the case for owning Precious Metals and continue to be a very satisfied client of TPGC, a supporter of their friendly and helpful service and grateful for their experience, expert advice and "all risks" insurance and storage facilities.

Avoid! Insist on full transparency about buy back prices before investing!

Avoid! I could write a thesis on The Pure Gold Company and my disappointment, disdain and dissatisfaction with them, but I shall refrain. Suffice to say, I am extremely suspicious about the copious, apparently glowing reviews! No Company gets repeated 5 star scores, does it?! Yes, they were competent at selling me gold. However, beware of their alarmingly opaque buy back prices! Has anyone really made a profit with them? I very much doubt it! The real "sting" is that their much plugged gold coins' prices are not tracked to the gold spot price, so there is no way to know one's investment's value.

I took my money out when I sussed they were more than a little dubious, and have invested elsewhere. Somewhere transparent about fees. This was precipitated by my desire to liquidate around 25% of my investment. When I enquired about doing this, I was advised "Ah, there are a lot of sellers at the moment, so the price is low". This spiel rang huge alarm bells, as Gold was performing relatively well at the time. I was also suspicious about their repeated assertion that Gold must be held for 2 to 3 years, rising to 5 years in some conversations. Unless I am missing something, investments can rise in any time frame!

With the further uptick in Gold's price in April, I am extremely pleased that I have moved my investment to another Gold dealer. There are reputable Gold dealers out there, I simply regret not doing my due diligence, thoroughly, prior to investing with The Pure Gold Company.

I should also add that their storage prices are exorbitant! One of their main competitors (who I now have invested with) charge a fraction of the price.

Once again, avoid!

**UPDATE 22/8/2025**
I would urge prospective Investors/Investors to follow this Company for alerts via the Companies House website. I have done since my unfortunate experience with The Pure Gold Company. Today I received an alert advising "First Gazette notice for compulsory strike off". Full explanation of what this means can easily be found on Google, and its not good.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We genuinely value all input from our customers as it helps us improve our services.

We’re sorry you didn’t get the result you were looking for when you sold your gold 7 months ago.

However, it is worth noting that your portfolio ended up being worth considerably more than you paid for it just 5 months after you sold and less than 20 months after your purchase. At the time of your sale we were transparent about the fact that gold is not typically sold within the timeframe you chose, and we were confident that holding onto it would yield the desired results. While this has proven true, we understand you needed to liquidate short term in order to switch to a different asset class.

We regret that your experience did not meet the high standards we strive to provide for our clients.

Best Wishes,

Clear, prompt and precise communication

Nicolas was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all the questions I had when I was considering an investment. After a couple of conversations I was well informed about how the process of buying and storing gold/silver worked, charges involved, capital gains etc. End to end, an excellent experience.
