Gold Buying stands - Belfast / Lisburn / Bangor area

bingo_bango

Might sound like a daft request, but there is nowhere I can find with a list of places buying gold in the Gtr Belfast area. I'm not so much looking for established jewellers but more the itinerant traders who pitch in the middle of shopping centres or at car boot sales etc. The sort who have a pasting table, a small scale and a permanently bored look on their face.

I'd be grateful if you could post if you know where there is one. I don't really need to know anything about them other than where they are, but all details gratefully accepted!

Cheers

There was one in Ards Shopping centre a few days after Christmas. It was the bored look on the guys face I noticed lol!!! Not sure if its a permanent fixture though. HTH.

If you want ripped off go to one of these places, otherwise go to a reputable jeweller!

Tesco are now offering a gold exchange, this story ran in the press a few days ago -

'Tesco is offering £7.81 per gram of nine carat gold, with acceptable items including earrings, bracelets, chains, necklaces, bangles, rings and lockets.


The supermarket says its price ­compares with the £6.50 offered by pawnbroker chain H&T, £7.70 by ­jeweller H.Samuel and £3.27 by Postgoldforcash.'

Hatton Garden Metals offer around £10.00 per gram. I have used them twice now and been really impressed with the service. There is a big thread somewhere on here about them and seem to be the best by a long shot. www.hattongardenmetals.com

Sorry folks, but to clarify.

I'm not going to get ripped off as I am not actually selling gold.

I am solely looking for itinerant gold traders who offer to buy your gold, and more specifically I'm looking for any instances where they are sitting in a shopping centre / boot sale etc in the greater Belfast / Ards / Lisburn area. Also happy to take any notices from Gumtree etc if you come across those offering this service in the same area, but do not need details of any other online firms.

I appreciate people taking the time to respond, but it is a very specific group of traders I am after.

Cheers

Why? sounds like a potential misuse of this forum

bingo_bango

Based on what assumption? You have no idea why I have asked for local information on a local forum.

And in answer to your question why, I cannot divulge that as it may defeat the purpose. That's as much as you need to know.

BigAl94

In that case, I suspect I was correct!

I got a new set of Golf clubs for my birthday bingo if you want a wingman, I'm pretty handy with the driver;)

I have to admit it does sound a bit odd, have these people done you or are you just trying to expose them for the sharks that they are ?

Cheers for the offer Stevey, but nothing like that.

I'm afraid I can't divulge the reason, but thanks to the fact that someone reported this thread and had it taken down for 'abuse' a couple of days ago, I was able to explain the reason to the abuse team, and it has been reinstated. That should vouch for the authenticity of my request. :cool:
