Appraisals

There are two kinds of appriasals, verbal and written.

VERBAL

Verbal means that nothing is written down. I test the metal and check the stones and tell you what the value is. Verbal is for customers who want an informal quote.

The cost is $35.00 per item.

WRITTEN

Written is for insurance purposes. A complete description of the item, gold content, what the stones are and its value. If you have more than one item there is a sliding scale.

The cost is $110.

Please call for more information.
