Determining the Value of Your GIA Diamond

Having a firm understanding of your GIA diamond's worth is essential before selling it. We determine the worth of your diamond using a combination of market research, industry-recognized pricing standards, and our own decade-plus of experience. We look at the individual characteristics of your diamonds including the 4 C’s (Carat, Cut, Clarity, and Color).

  • 1. Carat

    A diamond's carat size is determined by its weight, and diamonds with a higher carat weight are typically considered more valuable.

  • 2. Cut

    A diamond’s cut affects how sparkling and appealing it is, and is indicated by the way it’s been shaped and polished.

  • 3. Clarity

    The clarity of a diamond is determined by the number and type of flaws, or inclusions, found in the diamond. The fewer and smaller the flaws, the higher clarity grade a diamond will receive.

  • 4. Color

    Diamonds are rated on a scale from D (colorless) to Z (light yellow or brown). Colorless diamonds (the closer to D they are on the scale) are generally more valuable.

Why Should I Sell GIA Diamonds Online?

Selling your GIA diamonds can be a quick and easy way to earn the best return on your investment in today's digital age. In fact, selling your loose diamonds and melee online has a slew of advantages over selling in person.

  • Wider and More Accurate Network

    When you take your loose diamonds to local jewelry stores or pawnbrokers, you’re often selling to local buyers who don’t specialize in buying and don’t have access to a national and/or international network to resell the stones they buy. Which affects the price and the types of items they buy. On the other hand, online diamond and melee buyers aren’t held back by these constraints and can, in turn, offer you more competitive and accurate offers than a local buyer.

  • Efficient and Transparent Pricing

    Selling loose diamonds and melee online also allows you to freely and effectively compare offers from several buyers simultaneously. An online diamond buyer will typically offer detailed information and cost breakdowns, making it simple to compare offers and decide. Additionally, online diamond and melee buyers often use market research and industry-standard pricing guidelines to ensure fair pricing for sellers.

  • A Safe and Secure Process

    By implementing secure handling and delivery methods, such as insured and tracked shipment methods and secure payment methods, you can guarantee the protection of your loose diamonds and melee while selling diamonds online. Plus, to secure your personal information, a reputable diamond buyer like White Pine typically has rigorous privacy policies in place. We always ensure the process can be completed at your convenience, from the comfort of your home, and on your own timetable.

  • Where is the best place to sell loose a GIA certified diamond?

    Selling loose diamonds and melee online is the best option because it offers a wider audience, fair pricing, security, and convenience.

    To ensure that you’re getting a fair price for your loose diamonds and melee, it’s important to understand their value and select a trusted buyer.

  • Is my diamond big enough to sell?

    At White Pine, there’s no diamond too big or too small to sell. While the size of a diamond doesn’t determine if it can be sold, it does play a role in its value. Generally, larger diamonds tend to be worth more than smaller ones.

  • What if my diamond is broken or chipped?

    A diamond that’s broken or chipped may still be able to be sold, but it's value may be affected. You can contact White Pine with any questions you have and our support team will be there to help.

  • What is the best way to ship my diamonds?
