Audrey Guyot and her son Alan opened AG Gold, a store for buying and selling gold and silverat 8 rue Saint-Géry, in Valenciennes, since September 23.
« I have been in the business for 7 yearssays Audrey. I was employed in a gold buying company in Maubeuge and my son often accompanied me during my home appraisals. As he liked the job, we decided to create our own brand. » In a modern decoration, far from the “academic” side of exchange offices with armored windows, the mother and son offer the redemption of precious metals (gold and silver) in all its forms: jewelry, bars and coins at the daily rate. . “ Right now, the price of gold is at its highest level, after falling drastically during the Covid-19 pandemicunderlines Audrey. We take 2% commission for each transaction. » The purchased items are then sent to their partner foundry.
« We also sell gold from this same foundry, mainly ingots and gold louis which were formerly called Napoleon francs.adds Audrey. And we also carry out home assessments throughout France. It is also the domain of Alan who, for example, went to Antibes to buy an ingot. In the current situation, we obviously have more sellers than buyers. »
