Christopher Brown Jewellers York 03/08/2018

August 2018

3rd August 2018 One year on and both stores are flourishing and fully integrated into the family business. The shops are both branded ‘Christopher Brown Jewellers’ offering the full suite of new and pre-owned jewellery and financial services,  increasing our branch network to 8 branches across the North with 5 in Yorkshire.  My family have been jewellers and pawnbrokers for six generations and have been in the trade for nearly 180 years. The original business began in 1840 in Leeds and although that business has since changed ownership I am proud... Read More

MAY 2018

1st May 2018 Summer is finally approaching and with warmer weather people are already planning their summer breaks. Foreign Exchange purchases are really busy and we are delighted to see so many new customers using us for the first time.  I think we often surprise customers with the range of services we offer.  Often they come to just buy Euros, directed by a website showing the lowest rates in town, and then find themselves in a pawnbroker’s. All of a sudden they realise how much the image of pawnbroking has changed... Read More

MARCH 2018

27th February 2018 The gold price still remains strong. We are getting used to it now and it looks as if it’s the new norm for the yellow metal. Whether the news is focussed on world unrest, BREXIT or BITCOIN, the go-to place for many investors still seems to be GOLD. This is good news for you and me! Any old or unwanted gold still gains a really strong price and since January we have been buying a lot greater volume than usual. I hope our reputation to pay a... Read More

Christopher Brown Christmas Advert 05/10/2017

MAKE YOUR CHRISTMAS SPECIAL

5th October 2017 It’s time to start thinking of what you will buy your loved ones this Christmas and judging by the John Lewis ‘Top Ten Toys for Christmas’ list, this year could be expensive. Most of the toys whether they are plastic robots or walking cuddly tigers are coming in between £100-£150 each. Whether they last for the day, the week or even the year is anybody’s guess but one thing is for sure, they will not be appearing on the Antiques Roadshow in 50 years time. In fact... Read More

“I WANT A ROLLIE ROLLIE ROLLIE” – IT DOESN’T JUST TELL THE TIME…

30th August 2017 I wish I had invested more of my money on pre-owned Rolex when I first began this business. My investment would have already grown by over 40% in the last 4 years. Rolex watches have always been in demand. They are a prestige brand that seems to reflect wealth and success and as such their desirability seems to grow and grow. There is even a rap group signing about them now and my kids have been singing along to wind me up. I didn’t think they would... Read More
