If you’re buying or selling gold or silver, HATTON GARDEN METALS is the only place to go. Proper family-run business, been in Hatton Garden for years. They offer the best prices and give straight honest appraisals and no messing about. I’ve worked with them over 15 years and they’ve always been fair.

Miss M – :
I’ve experienced Hatton Gardens Metals twice when in the area for other metals (ok jewellery, so sue me) and both experiences have been good. I do most of my bullion buying at a well known “grocers” and may have become spoilt in my early-middle age, so where I would have once given HGM a 5, now it would be a 4 and a half, rounded up to 5.
