Not sure what you have? That is our favorite kind of box. Bring it in and let's find out together.
No Mystery Math. No Pressure.
Selling family belongings can feel uncertain, especially when you do not know what they are worth. Tara takes the time to sort, test, and explain what she finds so you can understand the offer and make your own decision. Sometimes the best advice is to sell - and sometimes Tara may tell you that an item is worth keeping.
How the Monkey Landed in Warren
Warren Exchange began as a neighborhood coin and precious-metals shop and grew into one of Rhode Island's most interesting places to buy and sell. Today, everything from tangled jewelry and old coins to watches, antiques, collectibles, and entire estates passes through our doors. We may not recognize every mystery item immediately - but after years in the business, we have built a trusted network of specialists. If we do not know, chances are we know someone who does.
Look What Came Through the Door
From basement boxes and costume jewelry to rare coins and Rhode Island history, you never know what will walk through our door.
What Customers Say
My experience at Warren Exchange, was exceptional. Tara is warm and welcoming, the shop has a quirky charming feel, and alot of hidden gems. I was there to sell a couple pieces of gold jewelry. Tara explained the process of testing gold for genuine quality. A process I found very interesting. She gave me a very fair and reasonable price for the pieces. I left with a good feeling and a bit heavier in my wallet. Will definitely go back and recommend Warren Exchange Ltd to those looking to sell or buy.
This was my first time going to the Warren Jewelry exchange. I was greeted with a smile from Tara. I had some old vintage jewelry and I had no idea where to go or who I could trust. She explained everything she was doing piece by piece and I was greatly surprised when she found a couple of pieces that were worth more money than I thought. I would recommend her 100% and I look forward to going back with other pieces that I have.
I had a great experience selling my silver here. The staff was knowledgeable, professional, and took the time to explain the pricing and process clearly. Everything was straightforward with no pressure, and I felt I was treated fairly. I would definitely come back and I highly recommend this business to anyone looking to sell silver, gold or any precious metals that may be laying around. Thanks again for a great experience.
