FAQ
What we buy.
○ We aim to offer the best possible price for items from Tiffany & Co, Cartier, Bulgari, Van Cleef & Arpels, Pomellato, Buccellati, David Yurman, and much more. If your item isn’t on this list, don’t worry—simply submit an inquiry and we’ll get back to you promptly with an evaluation.
○ Yes. We purchase non-branded gold and platinum jewelry, with or without diamonds. These pieces are typically valued based on their intrinsic gold weight (by the gram) and diamond weight (by the carat), so it’s helpful to provide this information when submitting your form. We pride ourselves on offering higher payouts than many smaller local shops, ensuring you receive strong value for your pieces.
○ Yes. We specialize in branded engagement rings from Tiffany & Co., Cartier, and Harry Winston, as well as non-branded rings. For non-branded pieces, we typically only look for rings with a center diamond certified by GIA, though we review each submission individually.
○ Yes. We buy select silver jewelry from top designers such as Tiffany & Co. (including the Return to Tiffany line and many Elsa Peretti designs), as well as pieces from David Yurman and John Hardy. If you have silver items from other fine jewelry brands, feel free to submit them for review—we’ll let you know quickly if they qualify.
■ No we do not.
Selling Process
○ Most clients are paid within 2–3 days from the time they ship their items. Once your package arrives, you can expect a final quote the same or next business day, with funds sent same day or within another 1–2 business days. If you choose payment by PayPal or e-check, you’ll often receive funds the same day your package is delivered to our office.
○ Having paperwork is always helpful, especially for branded items. Certificates of authenticity, brand evaluation papers, or original receipts make it easier for us to confirm authenticity. That said, paperwork is not always required—you can still submit your items without it, and we’ll let you know if anything further is needed.
○ For GIA-certified diamonds, please provide the GIA certificate number so we can verify the certificate directly.
○ Yes. We generally have a minimum purchase amount of $500 total. If you’re selling smaller pieces that may not meet this threshold individually, you can often combine multiple items to reach the minimum. We encourage you to submit your items through our form, and we’ll review everything together to give you the best possible offer.
■ At this time, importing jewelry from outside the United States is often not practical due to recent tariffs and added costs. While we focus primarily on purchases within the U.S., you are welcome to reach out with details about your item, and we can let you know if an exception may be possible.
○ Yes. We provide you with a fully insured shipping label along with clear packing instructions. Your package is shipped via FedEx Overnight with signature required, ensuring that it arrives securely and directly to our office.
○ You are never obligated to sell. If you change your mind at any point—even after shipping your items—we will return your merchandise to you, fully insured and at no cost. Your peace of mind is our priority.
Consignment Option
○ Yes. We do accept items on a case-by-case basis. When reviewing your submission, we’ll provide you with two options if it qualifies—one quote for consignment and another for outright purchase. Please reach out if you’d like to learn more about how the consignment process works

Sell your jewelry with The Diamond Oak in our simple four-step process
Because we’re an intergenerational family with deep roots in the jewelry industry, we understand that the process of selling a beloved piece of jewelry is often rife with emotion. With that in mind, we’ve created a simple and supportive four-step process to assist our valued guests when you make the decision to sell Tiffany and other fine jewelry.
- Step one: Tell us about your jewelry. The more information you can provide when you sell a Tiffany diamond ring—or one from other fine makers like Bulgari, Cartier, David Webb, Graff or Harry Winston—the better job we can do to help you get the best value. Our online form makes it easy to fill in all the details, attach photos, and get the process started. From here, we can prompt you for further details so when you sell a diamond ring, it shines above other comparable sales items.
- Step two: Review your estimate. At The Diamond Oak, we have generations of experience in helping our clients to sell Tiffany jewelry and other fine jewelry, including non-branded items. That experience has provided us with an intuitive and expert eye towards precisely identifying the value that will attract the right buyer while giving our sellers the maximum return on their investment. We know this is the most emotional step in the sales process. That’s why we promise to respond with your estimate within two-days’ time or sooner to put your mind at ease.
- Step three: Ship with confidence. Whether you are ready to sell your Tiffany engagement ring, a Bulgari diamond, a one-of-a-kind Cartier piece, or other fine jewelry, we ensure you can ship with confidence. Once you’ve determined you’re happy with your estimate, The Diamond Oak secures overnight, fully insured shipping so you can feel safe when you sell to us. Because we respect the emotional ties our clients have to their jewelry pieces, it’s important for us to let you know at this point that should you change your mind, there is no commitment to sell.
- Step four: Prompt payment. The most rewarding step when you sell Tiffany jewelry and other fine jewelry with The Diamond Oak is Cashing your check! We send our sellers a check via trackable priority as soon as we reach a suitable estimate and receive your shipment. We pride ourselves on being trustworthy, reliable, and professional diamond merchants who get you results when you decide to let your jewelry continue its story elsewhere.
