They did not check my ID when I bought with my Debt card. Other than that they were very nice to me.

A person that missed his appointment, was allowed to go before us and we waited beyond our appointment time. Also staff took a walk in after our appointment time and we waited for her

Dear Robert,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our Issaquah store. We're sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with our appointment system.
We understand that you were disappointed that a person who missed their appointment was allowed to go before you. We also apologize that you had to wait beyond your appointment time.
We take our appointment system very seriously and we are committed to providing our customers with a fair and efficient experience. We have investigated this matter and we have found that there was a misunderstanding about the appointment times. The person who missed their appointment had arrived earlier than their scheduled time and was waiting in the lobby. Our staff member mistakenly thought that they were on time and allowed them to go ahead of you.
We value your business and we want to make sure that you have a positive experience with us. We would like to offer you a complimentary gift card to our store. We hope that you will give us another chance to earn your business.

Connor or his evil twin whatever at the Issaquah store has ALWAYS been very unpleasant to deal with.
Their customer service is borderline hostile.
I'd buy exclusively online rather than allocating to Bellevue as well except dealing with Celia makes up for the drawback of the brothers.

Dear Tim,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our Issaquah store. We're sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with Connor or his evil twin. We take customer feedback very seriously and we will use your experience to improve the training of our staff.

In terms of your situation, it seemed that you were not able to get a hold of our store for a phone order. When in the store, our representative attempted to explain the difference in payments for phone and in-store orders, but an understanding of the payment differences could not be met. We would love to assist you in placing an order and will certainly take phone orders anytime during business hours.
We appreciate your feedback, and we will work to make sure that you have a positive customer experience in the future. We would also like to invite you to contact us directly so that we can address your concerns in more detail.

Jeff,
Thank you for the information regarding your recent visit and order. We work to get our orders filled in the timeliest manner possible and typically do get backorders completed within 10 business days. At times, shipping and other inclement circumstances can affect the timeline for receiving an order. We try to use the best communication when dealing with late orders and we always hope to create the best customer service possible. We hope to build on our current practices and your experience will help mold a better customer experience for the future. In your case, a voice mail was left stating that your order was completed and ready for pickup a couple of weeks ago but we did not hear back from you until yesterday when you reached out through email. Promptly, we responded to your email and let you know your items were ready and you could stop into our store anytime to pick up your items. We hope you enjoy your coins and hope to assist you more in the future.
Thank you for your time and have a great day.

The Bellevue location was busy in the middle of the day, which is a good sign. They quickly estimated the value of my coins and the process was very straightforward.
Store was busy at 10:30am Mon About a dozen people in store. I had an appointment, was greeted by Connor and advised to put my silver coinage on a counter top while he finished up with his previous customer. After a short wait, my coins were processed expediently. I’ve had a lot of retail experience and easily recognize a well run business. Your Issaquah location fits in that category. Will be back when silver hits $25 oz.
While the site and the store had advertisements of in the business of buying comics I instead got a lesson on the risk of buying comics and how much business hours it would take to look through them and even without looking pulled low numbers out of thin air. I set up an appointment in hopes a heads up would help but no, barrelly look at what I had.
Came in with a dozen coins to verify whether or not, they were real, and they had me in and out of the store in 15 minutes with confirmation that everything was legitimate. It was great because I was in a hurry, and they have a very knowledgeable staff that was able to confirm rather quickly.
I have purchased at the Bellevue store before and they always handled my purchase quickly once they were able to take care of me. Often there are several customers in the store which I suspect were walk-ins which slowed the process.
this time I was in and out of the store in 15 minutes.
they are always pleasant and business like. Thank you
We had a wonderful experience with Michelle. She was very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly.
She took a lot of time with us explaining many details about the items we had. We will definitely do business with her in the future.
Joseph A. Munchel was excellent! He found a beautiful diamond replacement in my wedding ring, appraised it, plus my Japanese Family Mon/gold necklace and my mother's wedding ring. I really was very satisfied and he is very knowledgeable and has a great personality!
Thank you so much!
There were not enough attendants to help people. So it seemed very busy and uncoordinated. I was making a 10K transaction that was hurried and stress.
