I had a great experience with Landmark Diamonds. Mark was very professional. Mark was also the only one that told the truth about being the jeweler that offered the most for for you merchandise. Mark and his wife are very pleasant people and I will recommend Landmark Diamonds to anyone I feel needs the service they provide. Thank you Mark for being a stand up guy.

Mark, the owner, is a heck of a nice guy, and his buying price for the gold items I brought in was 5-7% better than other highly rated places in the Twin Cities.
He went out of his way to accommodate my schedule, and he was patient and genuinely interested in the jewelry my wife and I brought to him.
It is refreshing to see that there are still small businesses owned
AND run by people like him.

We had a VERY positive experience doing business with Mark and Susan. Mark did all of the calculations in front of us, and from the market research I had done, Mark gave us a very fair price on what we brought in. Not only that, Mark was very kind, fun, and knowledgable. I would recommend Landmark Diamonds and Precious Metals to anyone who wants to sell any precious metals they have no pressure and no fuss.

I had a great experience at Landmark Diamonds and Precious Jewelry. Mark is very experienced and congenial, taking the time to thoroughly explain the ins and outs of the gold and fine jewelry market, pricing, etc. He gave thoughtful recommendations for a piece I am considering selling and made an excellent offer on a gold piece I decided to sell. I recommend Landmark without hesitation.

I had a wonderful experience with mark. He was kind, he did not rush me and he wanted me to record everything and watch all that he was doing. He had his book that we could look up the coins and his scale. I could not have been happier with anyone else except I have somewhat buyers remorse which is not his fault. It was just because the coins were my husband's domain. Thank you Mark and Susan

Did my homework before my appointment to sell my gold. Mark is knowledgeable and communicative. He went through every piece of jewelry explaining the karat/value. I believe he gave me a honest/good deal (because he has no large overhead). I highly recommend him. If you're going to sell your gold and are shopping around for the best deal. let him give you a quote.

Mark was very personable, kind, and knowledgeable. I brought in my mother’s old jewelry box (full of I didn’t know what) and he made the process easy and comfortable to determine what had value and what didn’t. If I’m ever in need of his services again l’ll gladly come back!

Very professional service -i will definitely come back in the future whenever I have jewlrey to sell. I called to see if I could make an appointment and Mark said he was on his way out the door but he stayed around and waited for me to get there to get there as I was about 15 minutes away. Wasn’t expecting to be able to come in so quick! Very friendly and personable-he was quick, efficient and made me feel comfortable. He put in the extra effort to learn a little more about me and tell me about himself which is something you don’t always get from people these days. Definitely recommend!

I had some silver coins and jewelry from my Aunts estate which I wanted to sell. Mark was very knowledgeable and considerate. He looked at every piece as I did not know if some pieces were gold or not. I ended up receiving over double than what I thought I would get. On top of that he paid for my lunch when I called and he was late for for our appointment. How niece is that. I would recommend Landmark Diamonds & Precious Metals to anyone wanting to sell silver or gold.

This is the second time we go to Mark to sell him some jewelry.

As on the first occasion, Mark’s professionalism and sympathy made the whole meeting extremely pleasant.

He guided us in the valuation of each piece and we were very satisfied with the price we obtained.

It is without a doubt with whom we will always carry out these transactions.

We highly recommend him.

We found Mark after trying some other avenues to sell some of our pieces. We are happy we did. He was not only very knowledgeable but also fun to work with. He went out of his way to explain his process to us and although I have to admit I didn't fully understand all of it, the bottom line for me was that he seemed to be forthright and honest. I appreciated that, and left with the feeling he was very fair with us. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking to liquidate their jewelry.

Mark course I have to add his wife did a fabulous job. I was extraordinarily impressed with how he explained how he dealt and gave me the best price. All in all I would recommend him to everyone his personable he does give a great price. He is a kind man good man-Showed kindness and empathy for my situation, which is very sick and very much pain very very compassionate.
His wife handles all the finance and what not and she’s just on top of everything so I would give him more than a A+ plus Therese Copeland

This was my first time selling jewelry, so I was very nervous going in, but Mark was very welcoming and patient with me. He took the time to answer any questions I had and broke down the process in a way that was easy for me to understand. Mark is very honest and upfront. It was overall a very refreshing experience to work with Mark and Susan! They are genuinely good-hearted people who will treat you like family, and I'm glad I was able to work with them! If you're trying to sell any gold or jewelry and want it to be a professional, honest, fair, and comfortable experience, look no further!

Mark made selling our jewelry a much more pleasant experience than I ever imagined possible. I was initially impressed that he took the time to answer my questions thoroughly on our first phone call. Secondly, he was willing to meet my husband and me at a convenient location and time for us. Lastly, he was amazingly patient, understanding, and professional in determining a fair price for our jewelry. During our meeting, he contacted his wife Susan to find a resource for jewelry boxes for me. Mark truly went the extra mile in even more ways than I am sharing in this review. He will be the first person I reach out to if I ever have any questions about jewelry or selling any type of collectible item. Ironically, it turned out that he and my husband lived near each other at one time and discovered they had some mutual friends. What began as a business meeting, quickly turned into an enjoyable conversation and connection. He is passionate about what he does, personable, and truly cares about helping people. I have very high standards when it comes to customer service but recommend Landmark Diamonds as they offer a top-notch service. My heart-felt gratitude to Mark and Susan for helping me and being such a blessing to the business world.

WOW I can not simply describe my satisfaction and out come after making an appointment and meeting up with Mark from Landmark. He not only made time for me the day I called he gave me a price for my gold ring I was not expecting. I got $200 more then another buyer offered me at a pawn shop.

Look if you wanna pay the rent and employee wages for Big company's like the Gold Guys go give your money to them.
If you want the most for your goods go see Mark! He is the Nicest guy you could ever meet he will explain everything you need to know about the process of selling. We got to talking about life and Mark has connections in the diamond industry. He gave me a quote on a pair of one carat prince's cut diamond earrings.

So we made another deal and now I will be giving my wife A pair of one carat princess cut diamond earrings for our 5th year wedding anniversary. I could go on and on about how great my experience was with Mark from Landmark!!!

After my mother passed, it was my job to sell a lifetime of accumulated jewelry. I called Mark. He was very low keyed and very personable. We meet at his office and he went over each piece in detail. There was NO pressure to sell. I keep some and sold some. I also had some of my personal gold and jewelry to sell and the market was right. His offers were higher than other buyers that I had talked with and paid cash. I enjoyed our conversations and strongly recommend Mark and Susan if you have gold and precious metal to sell.

I truly can't say enough good things about our experience with Mark and Susan. My parents had been buying silver items for decades and after my father died it was time to help mom downsize and move out. Mark responded promptly, helped us understand the process, and gave us a very fair price for our hundreds of items. Perhaps more importantly, working through the collection with him was informative and even fun and left my mother feeling very proud of this outcome of their years of "treasure hunting." It was truly a highlight in what has been a somewhat overwhelming process overall. We are so grateful.

My Bride had an old gold watch that she didn't wear anymore. We decided we might as well sell it so we did some research... Mark not only offered us 7.67% more than others had offered, but he said it was such a fine watch that he offered to pay us extra if he sold it for more than he anticipated. He even met us at our own bank so we could deposit the cash right away. He was so ethical and professional that we want to highly recommend him to others!!! In Christ, Mark H.

I highly recommend Landmark Diamonds and Precious Metals based on my recent visit. I sold a small amount of precious metals and received the highest price I found anywhere that I contacted.

I received the best information I could hope for and got some advice about selling a ring that has sentimental value - I kept it! It was a nice one on one transaction at their place of business. No pressure no hassle just a friendly transaction with Mark.

I was a little apprehensive when I first contacted them based on other places I had called or visited but I was pleasantly surprised with the friendly and timely return call. It was almost as if I was working with friends I had known for a long time.

If I ever want to sell anything again or have a question about something of value I will contact them and I will also recommend their business to my friends and family.

Thank you to both of you for making my visit a reason to want to go back again.

Mark is a wonderful business man. He was very open with weights, price per gram and etc. I was given quotes by other appraisers and Mark paid 22% more than the the others. I had a GREAT experience when selling my gold item to Mark. He iwas very open with how he calculates the numbers and explained what each formulation was for.

Just had a great phone call with Mark. He went above and beyond to share information that I would not even have thought to ask about. I appreciate having as complete a picture as possible during a transaction to make the best informed decision. Mark you helped tremendously with that! Thank you again.

I was short on money for Christmas this year due to medical issues and not being able to work, I needed to sell some jewelry to buy presents for my kids and buy food to have a nice Christmas dinner, Iwas shopping around on the internet and It was very short notice, Mark and his wife were the only ones to contact me back and was more than willing to come and meet me close to my home and give me the help that I needed. He gave me more than I expected for my jewelry, along with words of encouragement and his assurance that I was going to be okay. I have never met a stranger, so caring, sincere, and willing to help someone else out, I felt like I met a true friend.

Not only are they as good as gold
They have the golden touch
They are honorable people to deal with
My greatest take on the first encounter was on the phone
It’s about the connection and they seek to really want you to believe in them from the very beginning
I’ve never seen such commitment, sincerity honesty on a perpetual basis with my encounter during the time that I sold my jewelry and gold results from the owners of this company
In addition after we had finished our business, there was also a social moment
I was honored to be in their company and I feel that I will be friends with them forever. I will call them family and I urge you to encounter them first before you give anyone else a chance.
I’m giving them a Golden award of All-Stars
When you least expect something not to be a value, they find the value in it for you and put money in your pocket
Instead of it, just laying there in an old jewelry box or collecting dust get it out get all everything out go through everything and bring every last tidbit with you. They will make sure that nothing is missed.
So God bless you and God bless everyone that you’re coming to contact with because this is the honest approach to selling and buying your valuables in the gold and diamond market. Amen.

I had an excellent experience with Mark and Susan. I reached out about selling some gold I received as an inheritance from my parents, and Mark took great care of me from start to finish.

Mark is a straight-up guy who genuinely wants to take care of his clientele. I never felt taken advantage of. There was no hassle, no pressure, and no dancing around anything. He was upfront, honest, and transparent about everything, and the whole process was straightforward.

I really appreciated how knowledgeable and professional Mark was, while still making the experience comfortable. It’s clear that Mark and Susan take pride in running an honest business and treating their customers fairly.

I would absolutely recommend Mark and Susan to anyone looking to sell gold or precious metals. Great people, honest business, and a five-star experience all around!

I had such a great experience at Landmark Diamonds! Everyone was professional, welcoming, and very helpful throughout the entire process. They took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and made me feel comfortable rather than rushed or pressured. I really appreciated how transparent and fair they were when evaluating my jewelry. The whole process was smooth, straightforward, and professional. I would absolutely recommend Landmark Diamonds to anyone looking to sell or have their jewelry evaluated. Great customer service and a great experience overall!

best place to sell your gold Than are isuper nice down to earth give you the best price. Don’t treat you like you’re nothing if it’s one ring or seven I’ve been doing business with them for years and will continue to do business with them for many more. I highly recommend everybody to go there and if you can’t go there, they’re mobile so they’ll come to you and your house on your time and make it convenient to sell the gold and not have to take out any time from your day so actually you even get more money you don’t have to stop your life to sell what you don’t wear anymore thank you you guys and you’re more than amazing .

I had my gold jewelry evaluated at three other places before I went to landmark’s. He offered me $200-$300 over what the other places offered. He said it was 18% more. Mark was very personable and professional 😊 I would recommend him to you and my friends!

The owner is very knowledgeable and friendly! He was upfront about the numbers he was using to determine the value of my “scrap” gold and offered a very good price for what I had. The percent he paid was much higher than the offer I got at a well known store that advertised buying “scrap gold/broken jewelry.” I will work with him again when I have items to sell.

Mark instantly builds an aura of trust by being thoroughly upfront and honest with the process, while providing an in-depth breakdown of current market prices and calculations. I would highly recommend him to anyone who may be sitting on the fence regarding who to go to with their precious metals sales. I feel i received the best deal possible for my trade, and at no point was I rushed or pressured into anything. He treated me like family and I'm sure you'll receive the same welcome
