How does the bidding process work?

During the preview time of the auction our staff will hand out green stickers to customers so that they can mark items that they are interested in.

We are a request only auction which means that only items marked with a green sticker will go up for auction.

As soon as an item is up for bidding customers will have the opportunity to make their bids by raising their bidding cards or by making signals to the auctioneer.

Once an item has been deemed sold it will be added to the purchase list of the winning bidder.

When the customer is done participating in the bidding he/she will be able to check out at the counter, pay for their items, and receive their goods.

What is an Appraisal?

It is a written report authenticating the type and weight of metal, and the type and weight of the gemstones and other content in the jewelry. It also serves as a written comparison to the actual jewelry at hand. The appraisal often times has an estimated retail replacement value, but this does not influence its actual retail price. Jewelry Appraisals are more often a way to validate your ownership of the jewelry and it can also help you avoid disputes about the jewelry's value down the road should you ever need to make an insurance claim.
