Selling Your Jewelry FAQ
What is the process for reviewing the jewelry items during the appraisal appointment?
During our first appointment, my client and I sit together to review their jewelry items. I carefully examine each piece, listen to the client's preferences, and provide guidance. I assess the condition, authenticity, and quality of the jewelry. I also educate the client about their pieces. This appointment helps us establish trust and gather essential information about their jewelry items.
What factors can influence the resale value of my jewelry?
In the appraisal process, we will discuss your jewelry's resale value based on its condition, maker's marks, gem size, and quality. I will also consider current market trends and the overall desirability of the piece in today's secondary marketplace. It is important to note that second-hand jewelry typically sells for significantly less than its original purchase price unless there are exceptional circumstances such as the item being associated with fame or having historical significance. By considering these factors, I aim to provide an accurate assessment of the expected resale value.
Do I have to worry about security during an appraisal process?
For the duration of our meeting, I prioritize the safety and security of your jewelry. To ensure your peace of mind, I have a policy in place that your jewelry remains on the conference table throughout the appointment, never leaving your sight. This approach allows you to maintain full control and supervision over your precious items. At the end of the appointment, you can confidently leave with your jewelry in your possession. I understand the importance of safeguarding your valued possessions and make it a top priority to provide a secure environment during any of our meetings.
Can you help me sell my jewelry?
Whether you have a potential buyer in mind or not, I can help you explore the best options for selling your jewelry items. We can discuss options such as connecting with qualified private buyers or reputable auction houses. If you prefer, I can reach out to private buyers and auction houses on your behalf. While I am not a used jewelry buyer myself, I can assist in facilitating offers for your items, depending on the specific piece of jewelry.
