Wholesale or secondary market value

Service Description

So, you have some jewelry items for which you would like to find a new home. How do you find that new home and what is a reasonable expectation of the sales price in the secondary market? Keep in mind, jewelry is a fashion item and if it isn't in fashion in the current market, it may only be worth the value of the precious metal melt value and if the gems are not significant or accompanied by a lab report, they may not contribute much to a resale price. Items from high end retail jewelers will retain a higher percent of their original retail. Diamond prices have been negatively impacted by the emergence of laboratory grown diamonds. Wholesale buyers are paying about 10% of retail for diamonds in the secondary market. Gold prices have risen but there isn't much gold weight in a lady's ring. Heavy gold chains may have increased in value from their original retail price.
