I have returned a few times since my original review. I retract that earlier one star review because I over expected on my first visit. They are pleasant, fair and helpful. Thank you! Tim S read more

I have many trips with my silver rounds and they always have given me a minimum of spot price silver for the day. I have found them to be honest and helpful. I have taken my coins to other places and offered less. I have been happy with silverware prices and gold jewelry sold there. Someone complained about pre 65 silver coin price offered and they are similar to J. Bullion . Com prices. I have not found any place better. If you do, let us know. read more

I shop here almost weekly, staff is helpful and informative, the owner is a wealth of knowledge and I enjoy our conversations. They have a great selection of things , whether you are an experienced collector looking for the really big coins , or a beginner that's just starting. They have it all. They are extremely fair when buying or selling. On their website and in store they sell grab bags in different price ranges , all are worth more then the cost and I like the excitement of opening it to see what you get . I would highly recommend them. They kind of know me as the deldot guy . read more

I was ripped off on the value of my collection. Found out too late. But do Not trust them or their family business. I will never make the mistake of going to first state coin again! Lost alot of money due to dishonesty and knowing I was inexperienced. read more

Even though they do not take gold filled or small amounts of sterling silver.

All in all, great and professional service! The friends that took me to Sayers also purchased some retail items that are absolutely beautiful. I am very happy and relieved that they proofed themselves as an outstanding family run business. Jennifer

Before speaking with us, she was already being short and dismissive with an older gentleman who was simply trying to adjust the time on a watch he had just purchased there. When it was our turn, she spoke to us in the same unhelpful and condescending manner. We left without buying anything. Customer service like that is unacceptable--especially in a jewelry store where professionalism should be the standard. Based on her demeanor, she might be better suited for a job that doesn't involve customer interaction.

This sums up my trip to the Vineland Flea Market. I came here on a Friday, approximately an hour after they opened, so it was not as if I was arriving while vendors were still setting up.
