I took a brand new never been worn Chanel bucket bag with gold hardware to their Liverpool Street store. This bag had the box and dustbag and was currently on the Chanel Website priced at £5,860 and three long mint condition Chanel vintage necklaces from the 1980s Carl Lagerfeld Era (the most sought after period for buyers) one necklace was a 40inch Baroque feberge egg design peice so rare l couldnt find another one anywhere on the Internet in those specific colours there was only one seller online that had one identical peice in pearl. They called me the following day and said there isnt much demand for bucket bags and offered me £600 for all of it!!! £300 for a brand new Chanel bag is wild, and £100 per necklace is just ridiculous.
This was so insulting when l knew they would immediately list the bag for 2.5k and the necklaces for at least 1k each! I politely said thanks but l think ill keep them. Never will l take anything to them again. I will now sell my other chanel bags and birkins and massive chanel vintage jewllery collection with Southerbys or somewhere that appreciates the value of these types of things.
I cannot remember the date l went in as it was just over a year ago now so l selected the date time frame it allowed me to on here.
The service I received at the Richmond store was absolutely brilliant. The staff are kind and really listen to your needs.
The transaction was fast and smooth.
I can’t thank them enough.
Very helpful service from Nigel at the Weybridge shop, friendly and polite would definitely recommend using them. Thank you.
The Assistant Manager Theo at Hatton Gardens was super efficient. He has a very personable approach. His customer service is second to none and I would highly recommend Posh Pawn.

Kara was courteous, knowledgeable and helpful. She helped me through each stage . Maybe I could have had a marginally higher offer, but I was saved from taking photos, packaging and sending items off for valuation. Payment quickly appeared in my account after verification.

They were slow to respond and the description on the website of the process did not match the reality

We visited Hatton Garden London where we were attended by Kasia, who was excellent, friendly and very efficient.
I would definitely recommend this shop, especially if you are looking for a good price, you won't be disappointed.
Thank you to Kasia and her team.

I have sold items with this company (Loughton branch) twice. I was dealt with by vilma and Amy and they were both absolutely fantastic. With my 2nd sale, I got more than I anticipated so walked away very happy. I would definitely use these in future over any ordinary high street jewellers. Very pleased overall. Kind, helpful staff. I don’t live local and had to travel to get there, but definitely worth the trip.

They gave me a valuation far below second hand value on my rare vintage Chanel bag. Less than a third of value. Obvious how they have become millionaires by ripping off people. Use a local auction instead
