- When is the best time to sell diamonds?
- The best time to sell diamonds can vary. Sometimes, the right opportunity arises quickly, while at other times, holding onto them for a longer period can increase their value. It is difficult to pinpoint a universally ideal time. If you plan to keep your diamonds for a longer duration before selling, it is essential to store them properly. We recommend using appropriate storage methods and performing regular maintenance to preserve their condition.
- Can I sell diamonds without a certificate?
- Yes, you can. Our appraisers will evaluate the diamond 4Cs (Carat, Color, Clarity, and Cut) and provide you with a purchase price.
- Does the design affect the purchase price?
- For gemstone purchases, the grade of the diamond itself is crucial. Even with an older design, Otakaraya ensures a high-value purchase, so you can rest assured.
- Does the shape of the diamond affect the purchase price?
- Yes, the purchase price varies by shape. The "round brilliant cut" is the most highly valued cut for diamonds. The purchase price also changes depending on the diamond's grade, so feel free to take advantage of our free appraisal service.
- Do specialty gemstone purchase shops offer higher prices?
- At Otakaraya, we handle a wide range of items, including diamonds, gemstones, jewelry, gold, precious metals, branded items, and watches. This extensive sales network allows us to avoid holding excess inventory, enabling us to offer the highest possible prices for your items.
- Can melee diamonds (pavé diamonds) be purchased?
- Yes, they can be purchased. Jewelry adorned with melee diamonds (pavé diamonds) may receive a higher appraisal value. However, loose stones may not be eligible for purchase.
