This article will give you a few tips to help you along the way.
TIP #1 Diamonds are usually given to display love,
making the sentimental value higher to the seller than the actual value
to a buyer. Should you be in the market to sell your diamond, make sure
you are ready to part with the diamond before begining the process.
TIP #2 Be sure of the quality and authenticity of
what you are trying to sell. Make sure of the quality and the grade of
the stone. This is most important for the ultimate value of the diamond.
There have been many instances where a seller is committed to selling
their diamond only to find out the quality isn’t as described when
originally purchased.
There are Jewellers or services available, who will give an unbiased
assessment of your stone. But it is far more valuable in the long run to
get a report from a recognised Laboratory.
It is also recommended to verify the report matches the Laser
inscription before placing your diamond on the market, to assure your
diamond is the same stone should it not sell.
TIP #3 Now that you have an accurate report of the
quality, make sure you get a realistic selling value. Believing the
diamond holds a higher value than it truly possesses will lead to a
challenging, frustrating experience which can be dragged out.
An appraiser can assist you with determining a fair selling, price so
you can avoid this pitfall. Diamonds are priced in US dollars, so your
diamonds price will be affected when converted to your local currency.
A good way to see current retail values is to visit online stores like dcladiamondexchange.com.au or bluenile.com.
TIP #4 There are many ways to sell a preloved
diamond or diamond jewellery. Research your selling options to make an
educated decision that works best for you. Be it an online market or
exploring options through a local jeweller or dealer, be sure you are
using the best option for your needs.
Example, if time is not of the essence, an online market or an
auction house could be the best way forward. If you want a quick sale,
visiting your local dealer may be the best option.
