Our Flagship Store in Mount Pleasant
Mount Pleasant is one of Vancouver’s most creative and energetic neighbourhoods.
Main Street and the surrounding blocks are known for independent boutiques, vintage shops, cafés, restaurants, breweries and colourful public murals. Heritage Hall, a local landmark dating back to 1914, is also nearby.
It is the kind of neighbourhood that invites you to stay awhile. Customers often combine a visit to Canada Gold with shopping, coffee or a walk along Main Street.
Inside the store, display cases featuring jewellery and precious metal products offer plenty to explore before or after your evaluation.
A Vancouver Heritage Building With a Remarkable Past
Our flagship store occupies a limestone and brick heritage building originally constructed in 1929 as a Bank of Montreal branch.
Designed by Vancouver architects J.J. Honeyman and George Curtis, the building has remained part of the Main Street landscape through decades of change. Over the years, it has housed several different businesses, including a western boot store, a bath showroom and a lending company.
Canada Gold relocated here from its former West Broadway location in May 2025.
Original architectural details, including the bank vaults and carved stonework, have been preserved, creating a space that feels both historic and distinctly modern.
It is a fitting home for a business built around value, trust and meaningful exchanges.
Buy Offers Based On Today’s Gold Buying Prices in
Customers visit our Vancouver location with everything from individual rings and broken chains to bullion, coin collections and large quantities of silver.
Our team evaluates each item carefully and explains the process along the way. Testing is completed openly so you can see what we are doing and understand how purity, weight and current precious metal prices contribute to the value of your items. We then give you a written offer based on today’s gold buying prices.
There is never any obligation to sell.
Our goal is to provide the information you need to make a confident decision, whether you are ready to sell that day or simply want to understand what you own.
Our Experts Answer Frequently Asked Questions
Our Vancouver flagship offers access to additional expertise for customers with more complex or unusual items. Any questions you have about selling your gold, silver or platinum will be answered by an expert in precious metals.
Additionally, a gemologist is available on site, and a numismatic specialist is available Monday through Friday to assist with collectible coins and currency.
This allows our team to look beyond precious metal content when an item may have additional value based on its gemstones, rarity, condition, history or collectibility.
Customers are welcome to bring in:
- Gold, silver and platinum jewellery
- Bullion bars and coins
- Canadian and international coins
- Sterling silver
- Dental gold
- Watches and estate items
- Diamonds and gemstone jewellery
If you are uncertain about an item, bring it with you. Our team will help identify what it is and explain the available options.
What Gold and Silver We Buy
The Vancouver store includes approximately six to eight evaluation stations, allowing our team to assist several customers while maintaining a comfortable and personal experience. We buy silver in the form of bullion (coins and bars) as well as jewellery and flatware of serving sets. We buy gold bullion and jewellery in almost any karat of gold, from 9kt to 24kt.
When you drop by to sell to us, our large, thoughtfully restored interior feels open, secure and warm. Usually we can see you immediately but if you have to wait a short while, visitors can browse the display cases, use the penny press or explore available Canadian Coin and Currency and 100 Ways products.
Accessibility For Everyone With Ample Parking And A Wheelchair Entrance
Three complimentary customer parking spaces are available behind the building.
To reach the parking area, travel westbound on Broadway and turn right into the alley. From there, customers can access the rear entrance.
An accessible ramp is available at the back door. The Main Street entrance does not currently have a ramp, so customers using wheelchairs, mobility scooters or other mobility aids may find the rear entrance more convenient.
Our team is always happy to provide assistance where needed.
The History Of Our Vancouver Gold
Canada Gold began in Vancouver in 2008, when brothers Charlie and Chris set out to create a more transparent and respectful way for people to sell precious metals.
The company’s first storefront opened nearby in 2010 and served thousands of customers before the move to 2490 Main Street.
Today, the flagship location represents both where Canada Gold began and where the company is going next.
It is a space built to honour the history of the neighbourhood, preserve the character of a remarkable building and continue helping customers understand the value of the items they bring through our doors.
Whether you are visiting with a single piece of jewellery or a substantial collection, we look forward to welcoming you to Canada Gold – Vancouver.
