Ace Metal Company

Ed Gonsorowski

First off- I do not like to leave a poor review. But this is to help anyone considering patronizing this establishment. I live in Edmonds and figured I would go to the place near my home; what a waste of time. I had a lot of mixed copper and bronze, nearly 1000 Lbs. collected from my business. The rude person started telling me it was nearly worthless and said the most he would pay was .80 cents per pound. I knew that was BS because I've recycled in the past south of Seattle. I left and drove to south of Seattle where they paid me $1.60 per pound. Don't waste your time with this rip-off rude business.

Their website says they open at 8am but I got yelled at that they don't open until 9am. There is no need to be rude. Change your website to indicate the hours you are actually open and don't yell at your customers when they are going by your own website.

I am a 22 year old full time medical student. Not only were the copper prices low, I went in and got money STOLEN from me from one of the employees. They lied to my face about it. To top it off the guy who took it also tried to hit on me after. They have no cameras in the back so I have no proof, only the fact that I am missing my rent money ($1000). I know it was dumb to go in there with that kind of cash, but I was getting the money for the copper and going straight to the bank. I am so furious as to the managers response. He gave me his 'personal number' to call if I got home and couldn't find the money. After 10 minutes (I live right up the street) I gave him a call knowing that I didn't leave it at home, but going to check just in case. It was a fake number and I had no one to get a hold of and by this point they closed and everyone left. The next morning I called and talked to a woman manager who wasn't there that evening. I explained the situation and told her who had handled my things and explained what he looked like. She said, and I quote, "I think I know who you are talking about, and he is sketchy." She apologized and was very sweet and kind to me. I think the other manager was involved in some way and convinced me to leave. I realize now it is cash and was a HUGE mistake of my own. I know I won't be getting it back, but to look at a crying girl, begging for someone to fess up. I told them I would give them $200 of it if they returned it... But still no-one stood up. THEY ARE SKETCHY LIARS AND I WILL NOT BE RETURNING. I hope you don't either.

The positive reviews for Ace Metal Company must be fake because the place is a nightmare. Here's how they try to cheat you. They will tell you one price over the phone. They will try and get you to unload the metal before the per pound value is assessed. Once the Metal is unload they will drop the per pound value. They are betting that you will not reload all of your product. They will try to negotiate you to 50% of the initial price settling at 70%. They did this with myself and a friend of mine. There initial offer was $.90 a lbs they cut it to $.45 a lbs, We got $1.10 from Lynnwood recycling just up the road with no games and no troubles.
