Hello to all!
I usually lurk and admire from afar but now I am hoping for some guidance in the process of selling my engagement ring. I have a lot of question and I am uncertain on how to proceed towards the best sale for me and the person who buys my ring. Am I right in thinking I will get a better price if I consign my ring? Plus an appraisal is highly recommended, right? I figured the first step would be to see if the center diamond is certified so I took it to a jeweler to see if it has an inscription on the girdle and it doesn't. The center diamond is between 1.8 and 2 carats so I am thinking it would be worth unsetting the diamond and having it certified and also getting a Sarin report, right? It seems to be a lot of back and forth, unsetting the diamond and sending it to be certified and get a Sarin report and then setting the diamond again and THEN having it appraised and sent out for consignment. Is there a "one-stop" person for all of this? And I don't think it is insured, which I know is a crime, lol! I am sure insuring it will be of the first priority. Who do you recommend for jewelry insurance?
Thank you for reading my novel, lol! And thank you in advance for helping me. It is truly appreciated.
Warm regards,
Patty
