A very happy customer

I recently sold some gold jewellery to Gerrards. Never having done this before I was unsure of what to expect. However, Liz was friendly and helpful and I was delighted with the amount she offered. The whole procedure was very simple and if I wanted to sell any further items I would have no hesitation in consulting Gerrards.

Not great

I visit quite a lot of Auction Houses. Some good some not so. This was my first visit and frankly I did not find the staff overly helpful or welcoming. This resulted in my decision not to bid on an item but go elsewhere. PLUS they have no customer loo’s - which I find a bit odd.

Another great delivery by Gerrards

Another great delivery by Gerrards. It's like Christmas has come again each time I get a parcel of watches from them, to see what is the bargain of the lot . Each parcel is packed well and delivered on time. Carole packed the latest one. Spot on. Would highly recommend.

NO PAYMENT AFTER 5 weeks of sale

Gerrards sold a bracelet for me on 31st October 2024, on my invoice I was told I would receive payment for the bracelet 4 weeks after the sale. No payment came.
I rang and was told it would be processed at the end of the week ( it was now 4th December) on the Friday 6th Dec I rang at lunchtime as no payment came to my account as promised. The person on the phone said there were hundreds of payments to go through and it would be processed before the end of the day.
At 4:15pm I rang again as still no payment came. A woman said that it was actually 28 working days that payment would be made and that the accountant was working through them but she only worked part time, she took my name and said she would email them.
I have been in need of this money and I now have no idea when I will actually receive it as I don’t know when their part time accountant works.
So if you sell anything with this auctioneer and need the funds quickly, think again as you will be disappointed.

Auction item lost or stolen ?

Item paid for in full only to be advised by Director Elizabeth Cole that the item had now been ‘lost’.
As the hammer price was much less than the estimated price i ask if the item had been stolen.
I never did receive a satisfactory response and the item remains missing.

Dear Mr Sullivan, I am sorry that the item you bought could not be found when we came to ship it to you. We did offer you a full refund as soon as we discovered it was missing. We would have preferred nothing more than to find the item and get it to you. Once again please accept our sincere apologies. Gerrards customer service team.

Very happy customer

I ordered two fragile items from Gerrards and I couldn’t have asked for better service. They were packed exceedingly well and Carole deserves the highest plaudits for her wonderful packing

Very happy with the prices given and the Professional Service.

Very happy with the prices given yesterday at the Cumbernauld Valuation Event, even got some money for my broken jewellery, Liz and Debs were great, I was a bit nervous as ive never been to a valuation event before, but they made me feel at ease, and even though it was very busy, they still gave time to me when it was my turn, treated my mothers jewellery with respect, and was told they would only melt the Gold if they really had too, so I was happy with that also, I will be returning when there in my neighbourhood again.

Very positive experience

My experience with Gerrards was very positive. I had received a leaflet through the post and thought I would give them a try as I had already been to my local jeweller and was not happy with their offer. I dealt with Simon who was very knowledgeable and friendly. He offered me a lot more than the jeweller had and I was very happy.

Beware road trip valuations in your town.

I have just had my family’s gold jewellery massively undervalued by Gerrards during a road trip valuation in my local town. I spoke to presumably John Cook as per leaflet drop. Some items, all of which are 9ct gold, are as follows with a local jeweller’s OFFERS in brackets-medal £160(£300) Scrap gold £400(£550) gold chain £500(£730) gold watch £100(£175) tray of ‘costume jewellery’ £30(£110 for one item that the jeweller said was gold).Gerrards total £1190 jewellers £1865 a difference of £675. When he valued the watch at £100 I asked if that exceeded it’s gold value and he abruptly said ‘ that’s how much I’m offering you’ Also, I said ‘oh you take costume jewellery’ he said’ not really it’s just people don’t know the difference’. Luckily my local jeweller pointed that out to me, but not John.
I went back again with a scrap gold watch and spoke to Elizabeth? who valued it at £20, when I knew it’s value to be £60. These figures speak for themselves. Their leaflet drop has encouraged people especially the older generation from our community to go to them. I saw people being handed cash for their gold while I was there. I know Gerrards can offer any amount they like but I would urge people to get another valuation as a comparison instead of just accepting their offer.

Hi Keira, Can you please email me at gerrardsauctionrooms@gmail.com to let me know the location you visited and the date then I can investigate this. As John isn't out doing valuation days at the moment. We do have another male team member who is out and about but not in the same location as Elizabeth, so I am wondering how you could have seen both of them in the same location. But if you contact me I will certainly look into this. Kind regards, Gerrards customer service team.

Fantastic Service by Carole

I recently purchased some delicate goods from Gerrards Auction Rooms and could not fault the service and attention to detail ,especially the care provided during transit .The goods were all identified ,meticulously and individually packed to ensure that no damage occurred during posting ,together with a nice touch of a friendly card being enclosed with a message by the person who packed the goods .
So a big thank you to Carole ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
