In a world where trust can feel like a rare commodity, Flashes and Brilliance stands as a shining example of integrity, expertise, and authentic community care. Founded by John and Stefanie Robinson, this locally owned gold-buying business has grown into one of St. Augustine’s most respected boutique services — not because of flashy ads or high-pressure sales, but because of the values behind it.
John Robinson has spent decades refining his expertise in precious metals, rare coins, fine watches, and estate jewelry. His knowledge is matched only by his fairness — customers walk away knowing they received honest evaluations and the highest value for their treasures. Stefanie, with her signature charisma and genuine warmth, brings humanity to every transaction. Together, they have built a business where trust isn’t just a selling point — it’s the foundation.
But their brilliance extends far beyond business.
The Robinsons’ deep compassion for animals and people fueled the creation of Tail Waggers Charitable Foundation, a nonprofit devoted to helping vulnerable shelter dogs find love, safety, and their forever homes. Through countless hours of advocacy, fundraising, and hands-on support, John and Stefanie have become pillars of philanthropy in St. Johns County. Their hearts are as strong as their hustle.
Whether helping a family unlock financial relief by selling unwanted jewelry, or helping a dog unlock one last chance at life, Flashes and Brilliance shows that commerce and compassion can coexist beautifully.
