How Do I Sell My Jewelry?

No matter how old the jewelry is, there are emotions attached to it, and the thought of selling it brings discomfort. Having said that, trends change, and even the jewelry that you have admired all these years loses its sheen! So, what is the point of stuffing your jewelry boxes with such pieces of jewelry that can no longer be worn? The best solution is to find the right buyer to whom you can sell used jewelry and get the right price for it. Have a look at the following tips when you make up your mind to sell antique jewelry:

• To sell old jewelry, you must have all the certifications and paperwork of the jewelry to fetch you the right price in the market. On the contrary, if you are unable to furnish valid documents, the buyer won’t be able to gauge the authenticity of the product. Thus, you cannot expect the right price.
  
  
• Find a jeweler who has earned the reputation of offering fair prices in the market. To do this, you might have to research different jewelers and talk to friends and family before drawing any conclusion. Walk this extra mile so that you get in touch with the right jeweler to sell old jewelry. 

• Clean the old jewelry piece before selling it. Not only will it look clean and presentable, it will also attract a better price in the market. You need to be careful while cleaning so that the gemstones (if any) don’t come out and the jewelry piece starts looking incomplete.
  
  
• How you want to sell old jewelry is the next question you need to ask yourself. Do you want to exchange it for cash, or do you want to trade it to buy fresh jewelry? If you are selling old jewelry because of a financial crunch, then getting cash in return is a viable move. But if you are looking for some serious upgrades in design, then you can trade it for a new piece.
  
  
• Learn about the gemologist whom you are dealing with. This will help you better understand their style of working and customer service.
