Hello everyone
With the economy in pretty bad shape, I've decided to sell 4 of my loose diamonds and a couple of diamond rings that I inherited a while ago.
I do not know the value of the items
First, I would need to get it appraised at an independent appraiser but I have never done this before so I have some questions
1)
I'm unable to locate the original certificates for my diamonds.
Will this be a problem when I appraise / sell my diamonds?
2)
After I get my items appraised and I've found a seller, would the seller go off of my appraiser's grade report value sheet or would the seller use their OWN appraiser and give me THEIR OWN price?
3)
Is there anything else I should know before I head out to appraise my diamonds?
I'm new to selling valuables and I feel like I'm venturing into uncharted territory. Any tips and advice would be greatly appreciated
Thank you for your time.
