Do you have jewelry sitting around at home that you’d like to get some cash for? Well, you’re in luck! Koser Jewelers is a safe and reputable place to sell your old gold and silver jewelry.
Here’s what you can expect when selling jewelry to us.
If you bring in multiple items, we’ll sort them into piles after determining their individual metals. Then we will weigh the items and let you know how much we can offer for them. If you decide to accept our offer, we will take identification and write you a check!
If you’re in the market for some new jewelry, we can also offer you store credit. This offer is generally about 10 percent higher than our cash offer. You can use your store credit immediately or save it for a future purchase!
Classic round diamonds are the highest demand in our store, so we rarely buy diamonds of any other shape. We also tend to avoid any diamonds or gemstones with eye-visible inclusions.
If you think you have a diamond we might be interested in purchasing, feel free to bring it in! We will be happy to take a look and let you know our thoughts.
If you have a diamond that you are looking to sell but are unsure of its value, you might want to consider having it appraised. However, be aware that appraisal values represent the price it would cost to re-purchase an item new. So, it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to sell your diamond for the full price.

Selling Gold or Silver
When you bring in gold or silver jewelry to sell, we’ll start by inspecting your items. During this process, we check the gold content or silver content of your pieces. For example, if you bring in a gold chain, we’ll start by determining if it’s 10-karat, 14-karat, or 18-karat gold. Sometimes this process involves gold testing, which is usually completed by one of our bench jewelers.If you bring in multiple items, we’ll sort them into piles after determining their individual metals.

Selling Diamonds
If you have a diamond you’re hoping to sell, the process works a little differently. Unlike gold and silver, diamonds cannot be “melted down.” So, in order for us to purchase a diamond from someone, we have to be certain we can re-sell it as is -- which means it has to meet our strict standards.Classic round diamonds are the highest demand in our store, so we rarely buy diamonds of any other shape.
