​

What factors determine the price we pay for diamonds?

Price is determined by a number of factors:

• Color & Clarity

• Carat weight

• Shape

• Cut & Proportion

• Marketability

Our professional appraisers evaluate these factors and others in front of you while you are waiting. We will explain in detail the value of your diamond and answer any questions you may have. We will then make you a high cash offer. If you accept our offer, as most people do, cash is paid immediately. There is never any obligation or pressure for you to sell.

​

What's the difference between an insurance appraisal and actual cash value?

An insurance appraisal represents a high estimate of replacing the diamond at a retail jewelry store. It includes overstated costs like the jeweler’s expenses and profit not to mention the cost of reproducing your exact item. An insurance appraisal value does not accurately reflect the actual cash value of your diamonds. Insurance appraisals ignore several factors including the condition, marketability and style of the item. These factors cause an insurance appraisal to always be much higher than the actual cash value.

If you are selling diamonds you need cash offers not an insurance appraisal. Cash offers from a diamond dealer or jeweler will help you determine the actual cash value of your items. An offer is the actual cash price you will be paid on the spot for your jewelry and diamonds.

​

Do I need to bring in any paperwork such as an appraisal or receipt?

If your diamond has an independent third party laboratory grading certificate from Gemological Institute of America (GIA) or European Gemological Laboratory (EGL) bring it in with your diamond.

Appraisals and receipts are not necessary as Gold X Change has a staff of GIA trained professional appraisers. However, if you have your appraisal or receipt, by all means bring them in with your diamond.

At Gold X Change we buy nearly everything offered to us by people who have a correct understanding of value. Our reputation is so strong that we frequently buy diamonds from other jewelers and antique dealers!
