The Best Place to Sell an Engagement Ring in NYC

No matter what happens with the people we love and cherish, we always seem to retain some memories of them. Sometimes there is a book. Or perhaps a pair of earrings. Or, why not, the engagement ring. If you have just decided to sell yours, you are probably looking around for the best place. If you are in New York City, you have several options – including online options.

However, before we get to that, let’s talk about a few things you can do to improve your chances of getting a very good price for your engagement ring (whether it contains diamonds or not).

Before You Sell Your Diamond Engagement Ring

For the purpose of this article, we will assume that you have already made up your mind. You want to sell the diamond ring and nothing will change your mind. Keep in mind that it will be almost impossible to get it back once you sell it. Unless, of course, you are willing to pay a higher price to get it back.

Now, before you start looking for buyers, here is what you should do to make sure you get the best possible price for your ring:

1. Clean it thoroughly. You don’t need to pay anything to clean it. Some soap, a soft toothbrush and a bit of your time is all that’s needed. Make sure there is no dirt or grime anywhere around the stones or on the inside of the band.
2. Next, you should get the ring polished by a professional. This is especially important if the ring has some diamonds. After all, everyone wants their jewelry to shine, right? A professional polishing will make not only the diamonds, but also the gold shine. The engagement ring will look almost like brand new.
3. Finally, you need to figure out how much your diamond engagement ring is worth. Does it have diamonds? How large are the diamonds? What is their clarity? What types of gold does your ring contain? Unfortunately, figuring out a price can be difficult. This is why we recommend you to get your ring appraised by an expert. You will not only learn how much it’s worth, but will also get a paper that shows potential buyers that the diamonds are genuine.

Options to Sell a Ring in New York City

There are several ways to sell an engagement ring in NYC. The first option would be to go online and post an ad on a classifieds website. This, however, takes time. Also, you need to take a lot of photos of your ring and provide a lot of other information.

Another option would be to try to sell it on Facebook or Pinterest. This, of course, will attract the unwanted attention of all your friends. We would recommend against this course of action.

The third way would be to go directly to a store that buys jewelry. There are plenty of them in New York City, and most of them will offer just a few cents on the dollar for your jewelry. This brings us to our fourth – and best – option:
