Getting here

We're on Sutter Street between Taylor and Jones, on the edge of Nob Hill. From Union Square it's a four-block walk uphill, and Powell Street station on BART and Muni is about ten minutes away on foot.

If you're driving, the Sutter-Stockton Garage is the closest large public garage, and there's metered parking along Sutter and the side streets.

Who you'll deal with

The business is owned and run by Larry Li, and San Francisco is where it started. When you sell with us, you deal directly with the people who make the offer, not a middleman.

Customers from across the Bay

Most of our San Francisco customers live or work in the city, from Nob Hill and Russian Hill to the Richmond, the Sunset and the Mission. Plenty drive in from Daly City, South San Francisco and San Mateo, or come over the bridge from Oakland and Berkeley.

Common questions

Do I need an appointment?

No, walk-ins are welcome Monday to Saturday, 10 AM to 5 PM. Booking ahead means we're ready for you when you arrive, which helps if you're bringing a larger collection.

What do I need to bring?

Your items and a valid government-issued photo ID. Precious metal buyers are required to record the seller's ID.

How do you decide what to offer?

For gold and silver, the offer starts from the metal's purity, its weight and that day's market price. Diamonds, watches and collectible coins are judged on their own merits. We explain the numbers as we go.

Is there any obligation to sell?

None. If the offer doesn't work for you, you take your items home.

Ready to sell?
