General Process FAQ
You can start in two ways:

- Private appointment in Beverly Hills (in-person evaluation)
Walk-ins may be available, but appointments are recommended for privacy, dedicated time, and faster service — especially for high-value items or collections.
Yes. Start with an online appraisal by sending photos and item details.
Yes. We serve clients from nearby areas including Los Angeles, West Hollywood, Santa Monica, and Glendale, with in-person evaluations in Beverly Hills.
Offer & Pricing FAQ
Offers are item-specific and usually depend on:
- item type (jewelry / diamond / watch / gold / bullion)
- condition
- specifications (diamond quality, watch reference, etc.)
- weight/purity (for precious metals)
- completeness (box/papers/accessories)
- current market demand
We focus on market-based offers and a clear explanation of value. Final offers depend on the item and current market conditions.
An online estimate is a first-step estimate based on photos/details. Final offers may require in-person verification depending on the item.
Because condition, completeness, authenticity verification, and demand can differ — even for similar-looking items.
Yes. Gold prices and watch/diamond demand can change over time, which can affect offers.

Jewelry FAQ
Yes. We buy estate jewelry, including single pieces and collections.
Yes. Designer jewelry may be evaluated differently from simple scrap based on brand, condition, and resale demand.
Yes. Broken jewelry can still have value depending on metal content, stones, and item type.
If possible, separate:
- designer pieces
- gold jewelry
- diamond jewelry
- scrap/broken items
Sometimes jewelry is worth more than melt value. Items with diamonds/gemstones or designer value should be evaluated as a complete piece first.
Diamond FAQ
Yes, including engagement rings and other diamond jewelry.
Yes. A certificate helps, but it is not required. Diamonds can still be evaluated directly.
No. A certificate helps document characteristics, but the final offer still depends on the actual stone and market demand.
Common factors include:
- cut
- color
- clarity
- carat weight
- certification (if available)
- market demand
- whether the stone is loose or mounted
Often yes, because a loose diamond can be inspected more directly. But rings may also have setting/brand value.
Rolex & Luxury Watch FAQ
Yes, including brands like Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Richard Mille, Omega, Cartier and more.
Yes. Box and papers often help, but they are not required to sell a Rolex.
They often help with buyer confidence and can affect resale discussions, especially for desirable models and cleaner examples.
Service history can help support condition/maintenance discussions, but it does not automatically guarantee a specific offer.
Helpful items (not required):
- box
- papers / warranty card
- extra links
- service records
- receipts (optional)
Gold / Cash for Gold / Bullion FAQ
Gold is typically evaluated using:
- purity (karat / fineness)
- weight
- current market gold price
- item type (jewelry vs coin vs bar vs scrap)
Not necessarily. Spot is a market reference price; actual offers depend on your specific item and pricing model.
Yes. Mixed lots can be sorted and evaluated by karat/item type.
Online Appraisal FAQ
Please send:
- clear photos (front/back/close-ups)
- any markings / hallmarks / model info
- certificate or paperwork photos (if available)
- brief condition notes

Helpful (not required):

It depends on the number and type of items. Single items are usually faster; collections may take longer.
