Hello!
I am planning to propose in a few weeks and have scheduled a ring appraisal for next week. (I ordered it online and want an independent assessment of what I got).
The appraiser has said I will need to leave the ring with them for two hours. They seem somewhat legit (and by that I mean they have a website, and are registered with our national gemological group).
However, I've never owned something this valuable, and my gut instinct is to not let it out of my sight... How do I really know that the diamond I give them is what I get back? Isn't 2 hours enough time to swap something else in?
Maybe I'm just being really super paranoid... any common tips on how to handle this, what to look out for, or how to verify what I get back?
Thank you!!
