We're popping up at Coffer and Hutch — Brantford's largest furniture and home decor consignment store, at 197 Erie Avenue.

It's a natural fit. Coffer and Hutch has built something we admire: over 5,000 square feet of quality secondhand furniture and decor, sourced from more than 600 local consignors, all of it kept out of landfills and back into homes where it belongs. Their Consign for a Cause program even lets sellers direct their earnings to local charities including the Brantford SPCA, Stedman Hospice, Victim Services of Brant, and the Arnold Anderson Sport Fund.

We do the same thing with gold. The broken chain, the single earring, the ring from a marriage that ended, the class ring nobody wears — it's real value sitting in a drawer doing nothing. Bring it to us and we'll test it in front of you, explain what you have, and pay you for it on the spot. No pressure, no obligation, and no charge to find out what it's worth.

So while you're browsing the showroom, bring your gold and silver along. Two ways to turn what you're not using into something you are.
