What Is the Selling Price for Loose Diamonds?
The potential earnings from your loose diamonds or melee hinge on multiple variables. In contrast to precious metals, whose values are largely determined by weight and purity, a diamond's worth fluctuates based on its quality, cut, visual appeal, and market demand for specific characteristics. Furthermore, its valuation is influenced by the prevailing conditions of the global diamond wholesale market.
To ascertain the precise value of a specific loose diamond, a professional appraisal is essential. At White Pine, our appraisals are conducted by experts formally educated by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), guaranteeing accurate assessments and optimal financial returns.
How Is The Value Of Your Loose Diamond Determined
Having a firm understanding of your loose 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.
Is My Diamond Sufficiently Large for Sale?
Absolutely! Diamonds hold value across various applications, enabling the sale of both small and large loose diamonds alike. While jewelers and diamond retailers may show a preference for larger, visually striking gemstones for resale, entities such as White Pine welcome the purchase of small loose diamonds without stringent criteria on size, quality, or visual appeal.
Why Should I Sell Loose Diamonds Online?
Selling your loose diamonds and melee online can be a quick and easy way to earn the best return on your investment in today's digital age. 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 that 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. Online diamond and melee buyers on the other hand, 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 gives you the advantage of freely and effectively comparing offers from several buyers at once. An online diamond buyer will typically offer detailed information and cost breakdowns, making it simple for you to compare offers and decide. Additionally, to ensure fair pricing for sellers, online diamond and melee buyers often use market research and industry-standard pricing guidelines.
-
A Safe and Secure Process
By implementing secure ways for handling and delivering diamonds, 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.
