I worked with Sue at Good Ole Tom’s when I went to their Hartford Area store. She was so attentive and organized, I really appreciated all the help she gave me at figuring what I needed. Sue was kind and incredibly knowledgable. I highly recommend working with Sue and her team :)

Shopped a bracelet around that was handed down to me. Out of the 6 local shops Good Ol Toms were the only ones that didn't want to play games and gave me the most money. They beat a few stores by hundreds of dollars...Won't go anywhere else for now on!!

My adult daughter had some baby jewelry she no longer wanted. I brought it to Good Ole Toms and got some money for it. Made my daughter’s day! I’ve used them before and will definitely use them again. Highly recommend.

I had some gold jewelry and sold to Good Ole Toms and got a really great price I was surprised. So I found some more at home and decided to check out another very popular pawn store, they offered me a good amount but then I asked what’s the cost of gold today? The guy didn’t even know! He looked it up and it went up from prior day but he didn’t offer a new price so I went back to Good Ole Toms and they offered $40 more. If I didn’t ask that guy the price for that day I would have just thought it was a good deal and took it but I knew I wasn’t getting the best deal. Megan and the other lady that work in East Hartford are so friendly and really go over each piece so you know what you’re selling and getting. I will definitely go back, it was a great experience.

I went to Goodole Tom with my unwanted gold and silver. I met with this young man Daniel and young lady Megan and the service they provided me was exceptional. They were very knowledgeable and professional. They gave me the top/best price compared to 3 different other places around that I went to. I will recommend my friends and family to Goodole Tom everyday. Thank you Daniel and Megan.

Made a trip to Good Ole Tom's today. I first called as I had a question on what I was trying to sell. I spoke to an individual that was professional and polite!!. When I got to the store I was greeted and asked what they could do to help. To be honest I was unsure what to expect but was delighted with the service and the young lady that worked with me! Thanks Good Ole Tom!

Out of all places that I’ve been to in the past, Good Ole Toms just happens to be the best. I went in on a hunch when I came across some old gold jewelry and coins that my grandmother left behind in her attic. True to their word they gave me the best pricing on the items, which actually helped me out in a time of need. The service was amazing. I was helped by a young lady by the name of Cassandra. Her warm welcoming personality was just as good as the money I received. She truly knew her stuff and made me feel comfortable in the process. I recommend this place to anyone looking to get rid of any items that might be of value.

Yesterday went to good ol Tom’s, sat with Wanda, what a wonderful, wonderful lady. Very patient answered a lot of my questions, they bought the jewelry that I brought in and I was very pleased with the amount that I received. There were also two other ladies there, who also answered my questions again very patient and pleasant. Thank you so much for your customer service!!
