Benchmark Online Jewelry Appraisal Package For A Do-it-Yourself Solution...

The quick and easy online package with the fastest possible result - Why? Because you fill in a simple multiple choice form and print your Certificate to your printer at Home or Work.

By doing the work yourself (took my Granddaughter 7 minutes and she was only eight years old) you make your selections following the easy multiple choice forms. You will need a plastic ruler and maybe an eyeglass, but that is all the equipment you need.

You see the software behind this amazing new program took a team of Gemologists and Valuers and Antique Jewelry Dealers nearly three years to develop. The Mission Goal was to make it so simple - ANYONE could do it!

I think we succeeded!

The program will also keep your data for 7 years in our Secure Server, so no matter what happens, you can always get an 'Emergency Certificate' should the need arise - BUT WE HOPE NOT!

This is an almost INSTANT solution to your Jewelry Appraisal Problem.

Enhanced Packages With Qualified Appraisal Advisory Service Included...

The Enhanced Jewelry Appraisal Package is perfect for ensuring your Online Jewelry Appraisal Self Assessment Kit is completed correctly.

Once you have finished entering your data, let our Professional Gemologist Valuers take one last look at your information.

If they find anything 'Not Quite Right' they will send you a personalized email report with all the details needed to correct your Kit before you print.

Not only that, but they will also ensure you have maximized all the possible options for you, so you will get the full Insurance cover you require.

An easy option to 'Enhance' your appraisal solution.

Deluxe Packages with Technical Staff Assistants To Do The Work For You...

The Deluxe Jewelry Appraisal Solution is our classic 'Hands-Off' program, when you are either NOT SURE if you can complete the assessment form by yourself - OR - in the event you simply do NOT have the time (or inclination) to do the work for yourself.

Then we can do it for you.

At the Jewelry Appraisal Center we have several qualified and highly trained Technical Assistants who can complete the work on your behalf. Once they have all the details required, they usually complete the Appraisal Certificate inside 48 hours.

In order to participate in the Staff Assist Program however; you will need the original Store Receipts, eBay transaction information or old OUT-OF-DATE appraisals which you need upgraded into today's current value.

If you have used any of our Staff Assistants before and wish to use the same one again (subject to availability) then you can request them to look after you once you have registered. Please be aware they are very busy and can only help so many clients in a single day.

This Deluxe Option is like having your own Gemologist Appraiser work on your jewelry for you, and is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

When Should You Use The Appraisal Advisory Service?

The Appraisal Advisory Service is included in the Enhanced Package and at a discounted price. You will find it more than simply 'Useful' because of the advantages it provides.

For those past clients who may wish to add this service to one of their existing jewelry appraisals, it is also available as a Stand Alone Program - a clever way to maximize your appraisal valuation, especially if you are going to sell your jewelry in the future.

This allows our qualified gemologist and appraiser to 'Look Over' your online jewelry appraisal Kit BEFORE you print your Certificate to ensure everything has been entered correctly.

We understand that not everyone has the time or the inclination to complete an online jewelry appraisal for themselves. So if you fall into that category - don't worry - the Staff Assist Program has been discounted AND included into our 'Top-Of-The-Range' Deluxe Package.

Simply send us your original Store Receipt or eBay description - or better yet - an old 'Out-Of-Date' appraisal with the weights, sizes and qualities listed, and one of our highly trained Technical Assistants will complete the work for you. Too easy...

If you have already purchased kits in the past but wish to use this as a separate service, it is available by booking one of our staff today!

Total 'Hands Off' Service with Annual Renewal Warranties

In a recent survey, one of the most asked for inclusions was a way to 'Automate' the annual renewal on clients appraisals.

Generally this is required by your Insurance company each year or so, especially if the price of Gold or Gemstones has risen (or fallen) by more than 10% percent.

Customers simply wanted an easier way to get an upgrade without going through the procedure again - after all - the data is still in the database, so why type it all in again?

So we arranged an annual renewal payment with a HALF PRICE DISCOUNT as a standard option, but you can now UPGRADE that to our EXTENDED WARRANTY SERVICE where we do all the work for you each year.
