We wanted selling a gold jewel to be as normal and safe as carrying out any day-to-day business. No closed display cases. No armored doors. No suspicion. No fear.     <\/p>\n<p>Today we have more than 30 stands in the main shopping centres in Spain and we continue to grow. This accessible and close retail format allows us to accompany thousands of people every year, treating the more than 90,000 customers who have passed through our points with transparency and professionalism. <\/p>\n<p>Each customer receives:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Appraisals with approved scales<\/li>\n<li>More approximate and realistic prices to the price of gold<\/li>\n<li>A step-by-step process explained, without windows<\/li>\n<li>A humane, close and respectful treatment<\/li>\n<li>The space and quiet you need to weigh up the offer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is what sets us apart: we

environmental impacts associated with intensive mining.<\/li>\n<li>We are committed to a sustainable model that gives a second life to pieces forgotten in the drawers of thousands of homes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The general manager of Madrid Excelente, Elena Mantilla, stressed that companies like ours demonstrate that excellence is not only measured in economic results, but also in values, purpose and real commitment to society.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-407837\"
