Selling Diamonds in Boca Raton: Understanding Your Offer

When you sell a diamond, the offer depends on the particular stone and the market for it. Two diamonds with the same carat weight can receive different offers because their origin, proportions, color, clarity and condition differ.

Bring the information you already have

Bring a laboratory report, purchase receipt and details of any repairs or alterations. Make clear whether the diamond is natural or laboratory grown when that is documented. If its origin or treatment status is unknown, say so and let the evaluator explain what testing may be needed.

A laboratory report can help identify and describe a diamond, but it is not a price certificate. GIA distinguishes grading reports from appraisals. The physical stone still needs to be checked against the paperwork and its current condition.

Ask what the offer includes

For a mounted diamond, ask whether the offer includes the setting and any smaller stones. A setting can limit examination, so find out whether the figure is preliminary and whether further inspection would be necessary. Do not authorize stone removal without understanding the process and responsibility for the piece.

Compare the net purchase amounts and payment terms. Retail asking prices and insurance replacement figures are different measures and may not represent what a buyer can pay today.
