Hello All,
Just had a weird experience, and I don't know what to think. Had an appraisal done, but before the gemologist even appraised my piece, they asked what I paid and where I got it from... Isn't that why I am coming to them?
Anyways, foolishly I answered honestly and now wonder if he was then biased on their appraisal.
The retail appraisal price is always inflated, so I am wondering by how much?
In people's experience here, have your appraisal retail price been accurate, double or more than what you paid?
I.e. if you bought a Costco engagement right for $6k, was your appraisal retail price $6k, $9k, 12k or more?
Thanks
