Great Company
At my time of purchase, there was a lot of demand for silver (and gold). I thought with all of the demand that it would be a few days (or possibly longer) before I would hear from anyone at the company. I was contacted in less than 24 hours! Working with Michael G. was great! He responded very quickly to calls and texts and was great to work with. Kevin T. was also great to work with! From my request to talk to someone to having everything finalized for purchase only took 2 1/2 days! Can not wait to get my purchased silver!

Gold and Silver is God's money!
Everyone was helpful but especially the person who assisted me with my purchase. Sorry, I cannot remember his name. I do wish I had been notified when my Rep Ben would no longer assist me. The trust I built with him was important to me.
My experience with Goldco, has been fantastic. The people that I have spoken to have been extremely professional and easy to speak to.
I especially would like to compliment my Account Manager, Ryan Poston. He takes his work very seriously and has completely looked out for my interest, while representing Goldco interests as well. Well done, Ryan and thanks!!! Jay

Do not use GoldCO
At this point, I do not recommend dealing with GoldCo. I rolled over 2 payments of $300,000 each for a total of $600,000 from my 401K. The rollovers occurred 3 months apart. I received notice that the first assets were purchased. It took months for my second rollover to show up at my custodian, Equity Trust. During the interim, when asking GoldCo what was taking so long, I was told that my purchase was being “minted”.
Then I started asking why Equity Trust only valued them at half the value of what I paid when GoldCo told me it was worth double. I kept asking why the difference in value and the items purchased were not what I asked for. I received coins I had never heard of. What happened?
When reaching out to my account rep to understand, I was told I needed to wait for three years before I could sell them. He kept mentioning the price guarantee in the agreement that I would get the “best price”.
I began to get nervous so I asked for what price they would give me to buy back the assets. I talked to my financial advisor, and it turns out they sold me coins and were charging premiums between 83% to 97% above spot. Outrageous!!!
Based on my experience DO NOT BUY from GoldCo. Clearly, they are taking advantage of folks by not transparent in sharing the full pricing structure – meaning the cost of the assets + their spread/commission/margin. After having an analysis done, it turns out that I was RIPPED OFF!!!!

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We understand your concern, and the good news is that what you’re seeing on the statement from the custodian is just the spot price of the precious metals, not the value of the precious metals in the account, as noted on the statement itself. Based on the information provided in your review, we cannot find your account, but if you email [email protected] we would be happy to set up a time to answer any and all questions he may have.

I recommend Goldco for the following reason:
First time rolling over from my 401k. The thought was overwhelming because I did not know how to handle this and who to trust. Sources told me I was not allowed to rollover as I work for a County government. I didn't give up though. I was referred to Goldco and they walked me through the steps, gave me the right questions to ask my custodian, and patiently assisted me through the entire process. I'm now set up and so very excited with this rollover and grateful to all who assisted me.

I purchased Silver and Gold in January…
I purchased Silver and Gold in January of 2023 that being the first time investing in precious metals I read their reviews which were good so I contacted them to guide me thru their process in setting up an IRA account. They were helpful in setting things up and I made the investment for a IRA account that part went fairly smooth and when I received my first statement and was shocked when I found out that the purchase price of the metals was three times the market price! I had requested their mark up price numerous times but never received anything until six months later and by then all I could do was hold onto my investment loss hoping someday the market would go up. When I found out the value of my investment I called and was told it was the meld value of the metals not the real value which was a lie and after further research I discovered that they had taken almost two thirds of my investment for their profit! I realize they have to make a profit but this is crazy how much they took so if you are looking to invest in precious metals BE SURE you find out how much profit they will make from you before investing a nickel or you will be a victim like me. It took me almost four years to get back in the black and would be doing much better if they had been honest with their charges.

This is not my first transaction…
This is not my first transaction with Goldco. I have always found that their reps are very personable and knowledgeable about their products. That's why I continue to go back to them for future transactions.
I called to inquire about purchasing silver and gold in my SDIRA. First, no one answered the phone. It rang and then stopped ringing. I called back and it did not even ring. Right after I hung up, someone called me back. When I told him I what I wanted he said he could open a metals SDIRA for me. I told him that I have a SDIRA through which I wanted to purchase the asset, and he told me that I don't because SDIRA's don't do that. When I insisted they did and gave him the name of the custodian, his response was "Then why are you on the phone with me." He was very condescending.
He asked how much I wanted to invest. I said $15K and he responded that was below their $25K minimum. Never mind that I have well over that in my account and just wanted to start slowly.
The whole experience just left a sketchy feeling. Definitely won't recommend.

Goldco Review
Our experience with Goldco has been mostly pleasant. However, we were a little disappointed we had to reach out to the company multiple times in order to transact.
easy transition. Kept me informed all the way through the process.

Very quick and knowledgeable service
Very quick service, all my questions were answered by the representative. I had a very smooth transaction. They contacted and followed up promptly. There was a confirmation call to ensure that my purchase was correct. I will do business again in the future.
I purchased silver interested in that they were giving in honest information and selling me a good coin that was going to be worth more than the road
I don’t think they’re honest they do take an advantage of people like myself sold me coins that should have grown 100% because of the price of silver. They are not would never buy from them again they do a lot of fast talking.
