Step 1: Tell Us About Your Item Or Call To Make An Appointment

Call us to make an appointment or click on “Sell Item” at the top (right corner) of any page, and tell us about your large diamond ring, earrings, pendant, brooch, or watch including whether you have a lab report from GIA, AGS, or HDR. If you haven’t had the item appraised, don’t worry! We can handle this for free. However, if you have any appraisal information this will help streamline the process.

Step 2: Receive A Free Phone (Or Office) Consultation

One of our diamond buyers will contact you within 24 hours (weekdays) to provide you with a free consultation and preliminary cash offer for your jewelry. If you are located in California, you may visit one of our offices to complete this step in-person and skip the shipping!

We have two offices in the United States. One is located near San Diego in La Jolla, California & the other is located near Los Angeles in Redondo Beach, CA. Addresses are provided below (visits are by appointment only).

Step 3: Review & Accept Our Cash Offer

After receiving your jewelry or watch(es), Diamond Estate will conduct a complete market appraisal of your item and contact you within 24 (business) hours with an immediate cash offer.

Step 4: Get Paid For Your Jewelry

If you accept our final cash offer for your diamond jewelry, we will issue your payment via bank wire transfer, cashier,s check, or Western Union within 24 hours.
