Not all Gold Dearlers are Dishonest

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Feb. 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — As cash-strapped consumers sell their gold to pay for everyday necessities, complaints against gold dealers have risen. The biggest offenders according to a recent tally on the Better Business Bureau’s website, BBB.org, are cash for gold buying companies advertising heavily to buy unwanted gold jewelry on cable television channels. One company had 369 complaints in the previous 36 months. Another had 197. The complaints range from pricing discrepancies and misleading advertising to customer service issues and claims for lost shipments.

Gusky, whose company, GoldFellow.com has no complaints against it after serving more than 60,000 customers. “GoldFellow.com,” according to Gusky, “was created to provide consumers a safe, competitive and easy method to sell unwanted gold, sterling silver and platinum.”
