How much they are worth often depends on how much you are willing to pay. Do the earrings come with an independent appraisal?

 

[Rockdiamond]

What might make the most sense is for you to publish the price, and folks can comment on it.

I know this sounds like a helpful thing….. but appraisals are arbitrary in many ways. For sure an appraisal supplied by a seller is just about meaningless

Ps- is it just that I had a long weekend or is the diamond on the left set crooked????

I understand that but it is impossible for us to sit here and look at that picture and assign any kind of credible value.

We agree- we can't give a specific number....... just that assessing a quoted price seems much easier than shooting a price in the dark.......

Would be like 4.000 high for this earrings?

It's not a "crazy" number based on the IGI specs........ that does not mean they are a value.....

 

[lovedogs]

I wouldn't personally pay 4k, but that isn't totally insane either.

 

[barooo]

So 3-4k would be fine to sell it for?

Are you trying to sell or buy? If you’re not a retailer you’ll be selling for a lot less than you buy.

Im trying to sell it

Did you make them? Are you a retailer or just trying to sell them secondhand?

 

[barooo]

Hast du sie gemacht? Sind Sie ein Einzelhändler oder versuchen Sie nur, sie aus zweiter Hand zu verkaufen? [/ZITAT]

Im just selling it in second hand

 

[Lentibulariaceae]

Selling secondhand it will mostly be based on what people are willing to spend, then. In my personal opinion I wouldn’t really expect to get more than $2000 for these but I am also not a professional appraiser.

@Rockdiamond I thought the same!

I found them on Catawiki: you're the German bidder who won and you bought them for 1300€

totally different story for a private individual selling them......
It's to late to edit but I'd if I could it would say:

If they are being offered by a reputable, high end seller, it's not a "crazy" number based on the IGI specs........ that does not mean they are a value.....

 

[lovedogs]

lol, I thought you were asking what they might go for from a reputable retailer.

As someone who bought them for ~1500 USD, you aren't going to get much more than that for them 2nd hand. You aren't a jeweler, the earrings aren't new, etc. You aren't going to make a profit on this one.

 

[MissGotRocks]

That is always the problem with these type of questions. You never know if someone is looking to buy or sell them. That is why I think a fair price just depends on what someone is willing to pay. If you just want to sell them, I would expect to receive about what you paid. Unfortunately, there isn’t much room for profit to be made.

I can't get past how crooked that stone is. I wonder if you have a jeweler fix it, if you can get more money for them?

Would it really make a Price different if i fix it?

 

[purplesilk]

Fix the crooked stone.
IMO selling easily on Ebay for 2500/3000€.

AS someone who's been selling on eBay for more than 25 years....this does not seem to be a valid expectation.
Nothing is easy on eBay in this price range.....

I respect your opinion.

I think you'll have better luck selling them if you fix it. They arent going to be easy to sell unless you sell at a reduced price.
