Takes time, does research

Theresa Tricomi does an outstanding job.
I have been into the Tacoma branch multiple times for purchases and selling some items as well. Always takes time and informs my of how she comes up with the pricing. Great asset to the company.

We have been to your Tacoma location…

We have been to your Tacoma location twice, both times being served by Theresa. She was extremely friendly and, quite honestly, very bubbly! That is not a quality often seen in the service industry. As we talked we discovered we share many coincidences in our lives, which added to our wonderful experience at your store. We also went to sell some silver on 01/27/25, so we doubled our great review for Theresa! Wonderful employee who really made our day!

Carina helped us so much

Carina helped us so much. She poked her finger on one of the items. It wasn't even gold!

She was professional and cheerful. Even if she had a bandaid!

Carina was great again

Carina was great again! Even though she stuck her poor finger with a hat pin… she trudged through and was professional as always.

Why even take online appointments?

Arrived 5 minutes early for 12:45 appointment. Waited 25 minutes before being assisted. Why take appointments when an appointment doesn’t matter? Might as well assign a number upon arrival like you’re at the deli.
The staff person was pleasant and helpful.

Selling Coins

Bellevue Rare Coins were great with helping me sell my coins. I will continue going there for things I want to sell. All of them are really great too work with.

This place should not be trusted.

Warning: Be cautious when dealing with Bellevue Rare Coins, especially the Lynnwood, WA location. Do not blindly trust them, particularly a middle-aged woman with glasses.

I went to this place to buy a new coin. She asked me for the coin type and payment method, then informed me they only had 1992 coins. I said that was fine. She then set the coin aside and demanded my signature and payment, despite my repeated requests to see the coin first. She insisted, "Once you sign and pay, then you can see it."

Reluctantly, I signed and paid. She handed me the receipt and the coin. When I inspected the coin through the cover, I noticed scratches. I asked her to open it for me, pointing out the scratches. She coldly replied, "It's your coin, do whatever you want with it." When I opened it, the coin indeed had scratches. I requested a different coin, but she refused, saying, "You touched it, so we will not do anything for you."

I was shocked by how she manipulated the situation, using these tricks on customers. This is from a company that boasts 'Trust' and 'Best Customer Experience' on their website. I hope the trick she played on me wasn't because of my race. I trust the company hasn't trained them to act that way.

Now I'm thinking about how horrible the selling experience must be here. I'm definitely not coming back here.

I brought coins in and the Lady was very nice but did not examine the coins closely. I had a Dollar coin with Eisenhower 1776-1976 on front and the bells on the back. Looking up coin prices they range from $50.00 to $1500. I was given a dollar ,? Now it bugs me if she was honest as advertised.

This place does not appear to value…

This place does not appear to value and want to retain a long-term relationship with their customers. I purchased a pair of diamond earrings, only one is GIA. I was told prior to purchasing it, it was the pair by the salesperson. I got the GIA paper a couple days later due to the lead in the store could not find it at the time of purchase. I was really disappointed. When I returned it, they wanted me to give them 25% restocking fee for only having the earrings for 9 days. Their policy is 10 days for any jewelry returns if not satisfied with a restock fee. Their web site did not mention a 25%. I have shopped here several times before, always buying high end pieces.

Review of my Coin Collection

I took my coin collection in to the Tacoma store for evaluation. They took the time to answer all of my questions and advise me on a few things that I had not even thought to ask about.
Great people, very helpful, considerate, and patient.

Better make an appointment and hope for the best

Better make an appointment and hope for the best. Spend 40 mins waiting today as a walk-in and watched customers leave and come back after 15 mins to be taken to the front of the line as a return - while others are waiting. Not happy

Price, Quality, and Service - Trifecta!

I compare prices, quality, and service - and all point me back to Bellevue Rare Coins for my precious metal purchases. There are no surprises. I always get what I requested and the staff is knowledgeable in helping me find products that meet my requirements.

I live out of state now, but that has never been a problem. I feel my purchases are kept very safely until I can pick them up or designate someone else for that purpose.

Bellevue Rare Coin Employees who blessed me!

I cannot write enough positive things about this company in the two gentlemen that helped me on July 15, 2024 in downtown Tacoma . They were the nicest, most knowledgeable, helpful, and patient employees I have ever dealt with. I am on a limited income of Social Security and brought in just a few items of jewelry that I have found. These two representatives spent well over an hour with me, explained everything they were doing and were so precise in everything. I never felt pushed, rushed or that I was asking too many questions. They treated me with utmost respect and dignity. Please recognize these two young men at the Tacoma, WA store. I wish I could publish their names. I will always recommend this company and their excellent employees to anyone looking to buy or sell jewelry coins, etc. Thank you.
