Why Sell Your Engagement Ring?

Circumstances change, people change, and sometimes what was right once isn’t now. There are several reasons for selling an engagement ring — maybe you’re going through a divorce, she said no, or perhaps you have an old family heirloom you simply don’t want or need. Whatever the reason, selling your engagement ring or wedding ring to a reputable diamond buyer can free up cash for other opportunities. Some people even choose to sell diamonds from the setting and use the cash to upgrade their ring. The opportunities are endless but one thing is certain — selling your engagement ring can be a stress-free and rewarding experience.

Where to Sell Engagement Rings for the Most Money

Finding the right buyer for your engagement ring can be tricky. With so many options when it comes to selling like a pawn shop, pawnbroker, eBay, auction houses, Offer Up, local jewelers, and more it can be overwhelming to know which one is the best option for you. It’s important to be cautious when selling a valuable item such as an engagement ring, while there are many selling outlets to consider, not all will provide the same value. For more insight on how to determine whether or not a selling outlet is right for you check out our blog post: Where should I sell my jewelry?
