I’m already a repeat customer!

I am a recent and already returning customer of Chards. Their gold investors guide on their website was very useful and matched up with a lot of my own research that I had already gathered which helped me to have confidence that I knew what I was doing. I also subscribe to their YouTube channel and have watched all of their gold videos! I have spoken to them over the phone several times and also visited them in person and they are always friendly and happy to answer all of your questions and put your mind at ease. Special mention to Bhumika who has an outstanding level of service! I’m really happy with all of my purchases and am already looking forward to purchasing from Chards again as soon as possible. Chards had the lowest premiums out of all the sellers I was willing to purchase from. The pieces of Blackpool rock included in my orders were a really nice touch and it brought back childhood memories! Thanks Chards!
