About YML Refinery
A family-owned Arizona precious-metals buyer built on one idea: show people exactly how their gold is valued, pay a fair price based on the live market, and hand them cash the same day — no pressure, no appointment, no games.
Our Story
Serving Arizona Since 1999
YML Refinery has been buying gold, silver, coins, diamonds, and watches from Arizona families since 1999. We’re a locally owned, family-run business based at 11115 Grand Ave #4 in Youngtown, just off Grand Avenue in the West Valley. What started as a small precious-metals operation has grown into one of the area’s trusted buyers — but we’ve kept the same walk-in, straight-answers approach the whole way.
That approach comes from experience. Jacob has been assessing precious metals since 1990 — nine years before YML Refinery opened its doors.
Most of our customers come from the greater Phoenix metro — Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Sun City, Scottsdale, Mesa, Chandler and beyond — and many are repeat sellers or referrals from people we’ve treated fairly over the years.
How We’re Different
Transparency You Can Watch
XRF-Tested Purity
We test every item with an XRF analyzer to verify exact karat and purity — not acid tests or rough estimates. You see the reading. That means your offer is based on what your gold actually is, not a guess.
Live Spot-Price Offers
Offers are based on the current gold and silver spot price, updated daily from live market data, times your item’s verified purity and weight. We show you the spot price, the purity, the weight, and the math.
Cash On the Spot
When you accept an offer, you’re paid in cash the same visit — no checks, no waiting for funds to clear, no mailing your items away and hoping.
No Appointment, No Obligation
Walk in Monday–Saturday, 9am–5pm. Appraisals are free and carry zero obligation. If you don’t like the offer, you keep your items and walk out — simple as that.
What We Buy
Gold, Silver & More
We buy gold jewelry (any karat, broken or intact), gold and silver coins (bullion and numismatic), gold and silver bars, dental gold, sterling flatware, platinum, diamonds, and luxury watches. Estate lots and mixed collections are welcome — we weigh and test everything individually so nothing is lumped together or undervalued.
