The best thing would be to sell to an individual you will get more money… the others that you mentioned will not give you the best deal for used jewelry… The stores mark up the merchandise they sell to you ….

Hate to say It, but the setting is worth nothing, mabye $10.00
the diamond holds some value, but the mark up is so crazy, that no jewelry shop will give more than a couple hundred bucks for it. try ebay used jewelry, good luck

We all think we are buy more then a ring for are love one in the back of our minds that it is worth it because of the cash value but really there are so many of them out there that it is hard to re sale. I was was engaged and called it off and she gave me the ring back and it is a real beautiful ring but I do know that I want to get married but In my heart I knew that I couldn’t put this ring on someone else finger even if she didn’t know so I did some home work and checked around you are so right pawn shop isn’t the way to go. Another place that is hard but could work was ebay but I wasn’t too sure on this because there are so many way to get rip off and I also heard that you have to know what you are doing Now if you know of someone that is on that type of a site and ask them to list it for you and you have to have a picture of it as well A MUST. Then that could be worth it. What I did was made a deal with a Local Jewelry store and I sold to him and he didn’t give me crap on it as in cash but I was able to buy another one much like the one I had and made another deal with it so It was okay for me still took a lost on it but in my heart it was the right thing too do. What is strange is that I have bought another ring and I am waiting for my dream lady to be with me HEHEHE, I know I am weird. I do not tell this story to anyone but you. What I would do is to go around and try it with some of the other stores and see what they would give you anything on it and if they have any info and it is a plus you have your papers and if it is a real good Diamond then they may just buy it they really do not care about the ring. Hope I was some good info for you and wish you luck .

I tried to sell my engagement ring after my divorce. I tried jewelry stores, E-Bay and pawn shops. NO ONE will give you what it’s really worth. The best advice I can give you, is try to sell it in your local newspaper to a private individual…always keeping in mind that you will never get the price you are asking for.

Having done inventory for several jewelry stores, I learned that they have in most cases, a 200% mark-up. Highway robbery, isn’t it?

Classified ad is your best bet you will not get any money from a Jewellery store since they only buy new. I would expect to maybe get half of what your ex hubby paid for it if that. Consider it is old and used If he paid 4 grand for it when he bought it depending how long you two were married it may be worth 1500.00 dollars now if that. Also remember alot of brides are going for white gold or platinum so if it is yellow gold it will not be as desirable.

It’s curious how jewelry stores are like car dealerships once it leaves the lot it’s value drops considerably. Were ever you sell your ring it won’t be worth much. You will get pennies on the dollar for it. You might get more from an individual but then it has to be cash or you take the chance of getting ripped off. It’s sad to know that something worth so much at one time is now hardly worth anything at all. Your right pawn shops are a joke but the others are not much better. All you can do is either sell to individual or take it to several jewelry stores and see who gives you the best price….

I sold mine at a pawn shop- we had lunch with it . lol pawn shop is not the place. find an individual to sell it to- i wouldn’t recommend ebay — hard to sell on there. local newspaper would be best I think.
