Selling Your High End Jewelry For The Maximum Value

When it comes to your luxury jewelry pieces, You don’t just want the average gold price, you want the value of its brand name, authenticity and age to be considered. That is why it is important to be informed on how to sell your luxury jewelry items the right way and get the most for it. Whether your piece is David Yurman, Verragio or Tiffany and Co,

here At Gold Buyers Houston, we take the following steps to ensure you receive the highest quote possible when selling your luxury jewelry.

1. Appraise Your Luxury Item

Before heading to the nearest jewelry store for an appointment, make sure you know all of the details of your item. While a verbal appraisal is always helpful (Gold Buyers Houston offers free verbal appraisals), a paper appraisal is ideal when going into the selling process. Paper appraisals will give undeniable credibility to your luxury items status and value.
To ensure a higher value to your paper appraisal, make sure to bring the proper documentation if possible. This includes any certifications for your pieces’ authenticity, or even receipts.

2. Research Luxury Jewelry Buying Options

Once you have obtained your paperwork, it’s time to find what option works best to sell your jewelry. While selling directly online to experts is an option that is highly advertised in mainstream media, we highly recommend visiting experts in person to quote jewelry to ensure total accuracy. There are two main options:

• In-person sale : We also recommend visiting jewelry stores with a history of buying luxury items rather than pawn shops, to ensure it is evaluated based off its luxury qualities rather than its material value.
  Deciding whether to outright sell your jewelry straight away or put it on consignment is another major factor to consider.
• Consignment sale : Consignment jewelry means the buyer themselves will market your piece for you, including putting it on their website and running advertising, completely free, in exchange for commission on the item. However, this means you must wait for the piece to sell before earning any profit, which can range from a few days to a few months.

Researching jewelry buyers within your area is also crucial to receive the best quote possible.

Before you sell:

• Check Google Reviews of jewelry buyers (we are 5 star rated on Google, check it here )
• Visit their website to see what brands they handle
• Ask about instant payment options and evaluation transparency
