Yet again a great service from their team, helping every step on selling them my coins.
Offering a solution to safe postage which was the best option for me.
I got a great price for my coins that doubled in value, giving me the chance to buy a BMW for the first time in my life.
Got to say a special thank you to Lesley with her help.
A company like this I will use again over the years.

We’re happy to hear your buying and selling experience was a good one. We know free delivery is popular, but we believe visible fees are fairer, as they stop transport costs being hidden within bullion prices. This approach helps keep our pricing honest and competitive across the board.
Many thanks,

Great service AAA+++
I’ve ordered coins twice so far. The first time, I needed to set up an account, followed by a quick phone call to verify my ID and complete the bank transfer—but everything went very smoothly. The second time, I placed and paid for the order using a debit card with no issues. I can’t recommend Chards highly enough. Thank you for the excellent service.
