Provided by YP.comI have done business with John for over 20 years now, and always found him and his staff very friendly and professional. John is truly top shelf!

Provided by YP.comI do not recommend Martin's Coins & Jewelry to anyone!! I went in mid-afternoon a few days ago to sell some estate jewelry passed down through my family, and have some coins appraised as well.
The moment I walked in, there was disorder, and what almost felt like chaos. John Martin, the owner, was sitting at his desk at the end of the shop, and did not greet me, neither did any of the other workers. Instead, I got a judgemental stare, and NO one bothered to pay attention or acknowledge that I was there. I sat patiently for about 45 minutes on the couch, NOT ONCE did anyone ask how I could be helped, or that someone would be with me momentarily.
I ended up leaving, and must say that this business is unprofessional, disorganized, no personal skills were demonstrated and I would NOT trust their word on any of my jewelry or coins.
I am truly disappointed, and from what I observed for those 45 minutes, John Martin has little social skills, obviously does not care about patrons and having regular customers, or the name of his business. There was disrespect and an unprofessional attifude from the moment I walked in.
This guy is either THE INVISIBLE MAN or friends of the copycat coin dealer down the road? Please feel free to go to the B.B.B. We have an A+ rating and have been a member since 1997. How many rare coin dealers can sat that! We are always busy and have 30 to 40 happy customers a day that walk out my door with a check that is ofter 2x more than they get offered elsewhere. Just ask Gary Cucci he walked into my shop with a coin that the dealer down the road said was fake and another said he did not know He paid $1.00 in 1969 for the coin and we just got him $121,000.00 for the coin. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xP80uTATexA

Provided by YP.comI have dealt with Mr. Martin about a dozen times or so. He and John Kirby are very good and fair. They offer a good return for your legitimate gold and silver items.
My objection is that Mr. Martin will panic if you bring in items frequently. He will refuse to buy from you, if he has an the slightest fear of where you've gotten them. Reasonable, I suppose, but he will embarrass you in front of other customers to get rid of you. He also criticises his assistant's buying mistakes in front of customers. That, is a big no-no for me.

Provided by YP.comIf you want personal and professional service talk to John Martin. He will advise you on purchasing or selling and give you incite on market trends. I always wanted to be an investor and now, thanks to John, I am in the market. I would recommend Martin's Coins to all my friends and family and even brought my mom down. She was thrilled to walk out with a nice check for old coins and jewelry she had thought was worthless. See for yourself!

Provided by YP.comI have found Mr. Martin to be an extremely fair and honest business man. His shop pays the best returns around for Gold and Silver scraps, and they have a great selection of time pieces and other merchandise available.

Provided by SuperpagesAfter shopping my coin collection and some gold jewelry that was left to me I was amazed on the difference that gold dealers offered me. I got offers from three downtown jewelers and a antique coin store in Shelburne. John Martin of Martins coins was by far the most knowledgeable and offered me more than twice than some of the other offers I got. Thanks John we really needed the money.

Provided by SuperpagesJohn Martin is a true professional and a very nice man. I would do business with him anytime. I had been referred to him to sell my diamond by many others. He also has a very interesting store with very unique coins and other fun stuff.

Provided by SuperpagesI was amazed on how much knowledge John has in the field of numismatics. I shopped my coins around from New Hampshire to Vermont and got a quote from a dealer in Texas. Martins coins and Jewelry payed me almost 20% more than my next best offer. Thanks John
