HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST DIAMOND BUYER

ONLINE REVIEWS

In-depth and invaluable insights about a company's reputation and performance can be obtained by perusing and analysing online reviews available on diverse platforms, including popular websites such as Google, TrustPilot, and various social media accounts.

TRANSPARENCY & HONESTY

It is crucial that the diamond buyer you select provides truthful price quotes. They should employ a systematic approach to diamond valuation, offering fair and transparent pricing. If you encounter high-pressure sales tactics, it's advisable to walk away immediately, as this raises a clear red flag.

MARKET KNOWLEDGE

A buyer's strong connections in the diamond market are essential. The second-hand diamond market for polished stones is intricate and multifaceted, requiring a buyer with comprehensive market knowledge.

SECURITY

Esteemed and reliable companies adhere to rigorous processes to guarantee the safety and security of customers' diamond items. They should implement stringent and transparent procedures, such as recording the opening of packages, incorporating clear security measures, and employing well-trained staff.
