Why Should I Sell to You?
We understand your jewelry can often have great sentimental value
and that’s why we have established a reputation of paying
the highest prices possible. Each item is carefully examined, evaluated
and tested so that the customer receives full and fair compensation
for their jewelry. In addition, the level of customer service provided
is beyond comparison. All of our correspondence is friendly and
lightning fast. Many buyers present high initial quotes,
but when you send or present your merchandise to them, their final
offer is nowhere near the initial quote! We do not participate in
such practices. In addition, many buyers present offers that seem
high, but are in fact offers to consign or are merely an opinion
of worth. Make sure you are receiving outright CASH offers to sell
and nothing else. There are many buyers out there, some reputable
and others who are not. Rest assured, we are reputable and look
forward to establishing a lasting relationship with you. In fact, unlike other firms, we invite our patrons
to
schedule an appointment to deliver their items if they prefer not to
ship.
In addition, we are family owned and operated.

How Much Will I Get For My Item(s)?
This question is difficult to answer, but we are confident that
the amount we do pay is more than any competitor. Remember, just
because you paid $1,000 for an item at a retail jeweler, does not
mean it is worth that amount when it comes time to sell it. Jewelers
have the highest margins of any retail business. You will typically
get paid 10-30% of retail prices, but there are exceptions.

What About Appraisals?
Appraised values have little to do with an item's worth. They are
used solely for insurance purposes. Often, they are inflated and
many jewelers provide appraisals that are in their best interest.
In the past, we have paid 10-50% of appraised values depending on
the quality and demand for each item.

Why Not Sell At Auction?
There are many reasons that selling at auction may not be right
for you. Many bidders never pay, there are upfront fees in addition
to commissions owed after the sale, and there are logistics issues,
fraudulent payments and much more.

After contacting us for a PRICE QUOTE you have two options. You may
