I vividly recall visiting their store with my late grandfather in the late 1970s, located beside…read morethe Sarnia Public Library. He would often purchase silver and coins from them during that time. It wasn't until about five months ago, when I returned to Sarnia, that I discovered they still existed. To my surprise, I found the local business was still the same owner. Before I went to Sarnia coin again after all these years, I took my metal to the traveling circus that promotes itself for buying silver, coins, and other items, and was quoted by them a much much lower price when they were in town at the local Hotel. However, after comparing it to the prices I was offered by Sarnia Coin, I realized that Sarnia Coin still stands out as the better option for getting fair value for buying and selling precious metals. I sold some gold I inherited to them and was pleased to find that they provided the best buying prices in the area, comparable to those I was offered in larger cities like London and Toronto before I moved. This experience left me impressed with their reputation as a trustworthy dealer.

I purchased currency for Jordan, Egypt and UAE a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, we canceled our…read moretour due to the war in the Middle East. When I took the money back on Senior's Monday (supposed to be better rates), they charged me 21% to restock the Jordanian and UAE money. As for the Egyptian Pound, they wanted to charge me 51% restocking fee. Are you serious!!!! This is highway robbery since they already made money when they sold it to me. I am not naive enough to think that companies do anything without making a profit, but this is ridiculous. I will never again use the services of Continental Currency Exchange and I have been a long time customer but feel totally taken advantage of. Beware of their fees.

Was passing through Guelph, ON and I had heard about this place from locals. Their rates are okay…read moreif you are exchanging small amounts of cash. For large amounts of cash or cheque conversions, from the rates they quoted, it seems that RBC and TD rates are more competitive. With TD you get a better rate if you have a USD account (but you pay a dollar for the transaction, which is not much and worth it in my opinion). Overall, the service was pleasant. I would say go to Global Currency if you are in a hurry and are exchanging small amounts of cash. If you are doing large cheques or large amounts of cash, from the rate they quoted I would suggest sticking with your local RBC or TD bank.

Very rude service- avoid them at all costs. They are good at trying to convince you that they have…read morethe better rate. But what I found was that they cannot match my banks rate. When I was in their store they quoted a rate to me. I then called my bank to confirm who had the better rate. I was surprised that my bank offered multiple rates of exchange. I then quoted these rates to Global Currency and they couldn't match the rates. They said that I was bette This is what I learned from my bank: If you have a TD Waterhouse or TD Direct Investing account you automatically get a preferred US exchange rate. If you have TD US Account (free just keep $1,000 US in there, or pay a $1US per transaction) you also get a better rate then the cash rate. If you have a TD Borderless US account (free for accounts with $3,000 US plus, or a $4.94 US a month) you also get a preferred exchange rate. So, when I learned that I could get preferred rates by having a TD US account I opened one up with $200 US. Knowing that I'm getting a better rate then then cash rate, I don't mind paying $1US per transaction. Also it says me time because I can do the exchanges online (account to account), and I don't have to worry about negotiating rates, or finding the best rate- TD does it all for me.
