Treherbert valuations

Went to a valuation this afternoon at Treherbert Rugby club for valuations.
Valued my 3 old wedding rings for £100.
Got home and thought I'd check the current gold price and realised I'd been done.
Just would say to anyone else. Be careful. I should have checked before I went but didn't. Don't make the same mistake.

Hi Anthony, We offer competitive and current fair prices for all gold items. I am sorry that you were not happy with the price you were offered. It would have been purely based on the weight of the gold. I would be very happy to discuss this further with you if you could contact me directly on email address gerrardsauctionrooms@gmail.com. Kind regards Lizzy Cole.

A very good first experience

My experience of Gerrards Auction Rooms was very good. Good clear photos of items and good descriptions of lots. Additional questions answered speedily. Delivery was fast, packed well (thanks to Carole) - I paid for my lots one day and they arrived the next day which was much appreciated. Postage cost is higher than some others but it is an inevitable extra when bidding online and should be allowed for when distance bidding. The overall service I received can't be faulted. Thank you

Gerrards will rip you off on postage

Gerrards will rip you off on postage, they obviously see a good profit to be made on postage over and above their commission, I buy from around 3 auctions across the UK every week and a small number of auction houses overcharge on postage, Gerrards are among the worst, £27 to post 2 cased pens, actual cost was small parcel £6.19

Pre auction viewing

We went to look at a few rings which are due to be auctioned. Carole was really helpful and took the time to find the ones we had seen online.
All the staff were very friendly and professional.

Enjoyable experience with Lizzy from Gerrards. Trying to sell some of my jewellery which I no longer use. Comments on the silver jewellery were fair. Unfortunately some of the items were quoted on the scrap value of the silver so it was better to take these home and have a rethink about what to do with them.

Great experience and wonderful service from Lizzy and Debs

I've recently sold two lots of jewellery with Debs and Lizzy of Gerrards and they are friendly, helpful and very honest. The experience of selling sentimental jewellery is not an easy one, but the ladies are so friendly and give their honest opinion, it soon puts one at ease. Great experience with wonderful service. Thank you

Excellent and professional service

Simon and Dave did an excellent job of going through my mother's house and advising us on what was likely to sell at auction. Everything selected was packed up well and they both acted with courtesy and professionalism. Simon spent a considerable amount of time assessing jewellery. An excellent service.

Wonderful service would recommend

Popped in to see the ladies who came to my local library about selling a few pieces. Wonderful service, warm and welcoming and made everything so straight forward!

Happily sold a ring and a few bracelets and got cash in hand right there.

Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to sell some items or to get a valuation.

Valuation in Forres

We met with Lizzy early this evening. She was easy to deal with knowledgeable and honest with us.
Would recommend anyone who’s thinking about it to go along, you don’t have to sell and they’ll be honest with you in relation to items.
We sold quite a few items and others we didn’t.

Could have been better

I took some costume jewellery and other bits and bobs of silver plate along to the nearby venue. I didn't expect them to be of much value, but you never know.
However, the attitude of the valuer could have been more of 'I'm very sorry, these are not the kind of things we want as they are of little monetary value' and less of the "no good to us" abrupt style that I was met with.
Some of these things had memories attached to them, so I would have preferred a more compassionate, less dismissive summing up.

Thank you for taking the time to get in touch. I can understand that some sentimental items that mean much to the family can be low in value and it can be quite upsetting when told these items are not of interest to us.  We buy lots of low value items including costume jewellery and silver plated ware. We take lots of things low in monetary value but saleable for example a nice Timex  watch, a strand of beads a medal - all low value but saleable. I apologise if we came across as abrupt. Many thanks Gerrards Auction Rooms

Pleasently surprised!

I went to the Auction rooms this morning. I took some jewellery belonging to my late aunt mostly costume, and 3 mens watches. I spoke to Simon, the valuer, who looked through it all.I decided to sell, rather than auction, and was stunned by the large amount he offered. I didn't think I would get anything like what he gave me. The money is going to Cancer research. If anyone has anything to sell or auction do use Gerrards, this is the second time I've used them, and can't speak highly enough of them.
