CIRCA

This company claims to be high end and give you the best price for the jewelry you want to sell.
Well, the most you will get is an incredibly low ball deal. The office I went to is cold and empty and the guy that helped me wanted to dispute the G.I.A certificate I had along with my piece. Considering I had done my fair share of homework on the worth and value if my piece, I knew immediately I was getting a dishonest offer. I got better offers at other jewelry buyers and suggest that anyone reading this should go elsewhere.

A few months ago I started the process of helping my mother-​in-​law sell her diamond engagement ring. I was first quoted $ 8,000 at Charles Schwartz by Paul the owner. A few weeks later I went back and, not revealing the first quote, was quoted $ 5,000 by Kirk, who I think is the manager. When I showed him the first quote, he claimed Paul had missed some inclusions. Next I went to Darryl Boone at Boone and Sons who quoted $ 5,000, as well. I took the $ 5,000, but my gut told me something did not add up, based on the appraisals. I returned 3 days later and told Mr. Boone I would like the ring back to have one more person look at it. He guaranteed me I would not get a better offer but returned the ring. Today I sold the ring to Circa Jewels for $ 8,200. Lee Siegel at Circa Jewels was delightful to work with. I did not have an appointment; he took me as a walk-​in. I now feel like I know who I can trust in the future. I highly recommend Circa if you are in the market to sell jewelry or stones. I am so grateful for his honesty and I will definitely start with him next time!

You need an appointment but they take last minute ones. Simple process and fair price. Located in an office tower type setting and very secure.

I had such a wonderful experience at Circa. They were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and helpful and I absolutely trusted their judgement. I felt 100% safe selling my jewelry to them. I have referred them to many people and will definitely use them again.
