There are Tables, Charts, Illustrations and Help Menus - and the greatest Guide of all - a Qualified gemologist Valuer available to answer your questions if you get confused. If you can use your eyes, touch and measure - you can do this.

• No need to write a description of your Jewelry - The Kit will do it for you.

The directions are based on just 6 pages of an uncomplicated fill-in form consisting of Multiple choice questions. Couldn't be easier. There are Gemstone Shapes and Cut Charts Inside to Guide you, plus a Diamond weight and Sizes Table for you to use.

You will be able to complete the 'Jewelry Valuation Self Appraisal Kit' in just 10 to 15 minutes, quicker if you have done one before or have the details written down before you begin (suggested) as you may have an old appraisal certificate or the original Store receipt.

Up to this point, you can 'Go Back and Forth' and change details until you are satisfied the information you entered is correct.

Friends Laughed In My Face When I Casually Mentioned I Was Going To Appraise My Personal Jewelry From Home...

...But You Should Have Heard Me Laugh When I Finally Showed Them My Completed Appraisal Certificate, Printed From My Home Computer.

"G'day... My name is David and I would like to take you on one such journey.

In fact it became one of the reasons the Valuation Self Appraisal Kit was developed in the first place."

It was about my Stepmother.

She was getting annoyed and irritable. No-one knew what the problem was until she began to ask teasing little questions. "Have you seen any jewelry lying around?" or "Not seen my Wedding Band, have you. The one I kept on the Bedroom drawers."

It was her mother's ring and had been handed down. Now it was gone.
The words 'irreplaceable' and 'sentimental value' kept being mentioned.

Despite a thorough search, it never turned up. No-one could have taken it so it remains a mystery to this day. Thankfully we had a solution.

My Father had the foresight to get an appraisal valuation done on all my stepmothers jewelry. Being methodical, he had also taken photos.

The Certificate listed every detail including the weight, age, gold quality (it was 22ct), width across the band, shape and style, even the rose gold color was mentioned in the description plus the engraving inside the band with the Hallmark date was listed on the document.

Inside a couple of weeks it was replaced.  It could never be the same of course, but it was identical in every other detail. Problem solved.

It taught me a lesson I'll never forget....

• Don't Wait Until It's Too Late.

Many years later I qualified as a gemologist and went on to become a Member of the Valuers Council. I saw first hand exactly what pain and disappointment came with the loss of a client's irreplaceable treasures.

Many of the requests came from distraught and saddened clients, but there was ALWAYS one thing they had in common....

• They all left it too late. The request came AFTER their loss!

As we also owned a small family business, specializing in Antique and Estate Jewelry, I knew how hard it was to replace these lost items.

We did what we could, of course. My wife, Patricia brought calm to our clients and handled their details, while my son Chris, a qualified Manufacturing Jeweler in his own right, would recreate the missing treasure to an almost fastidious manner. Too fussy sometimes. But he had to get it right!

Yet we still got the "It won't happen to me" crowd thru the door.

You shouldn't be concerned about any Valuation problems.

The Software program behind the Kit runs on OUR Secure Server, so there's no need to you to be concerned about updates, or any of these successive problems, because the Valuation Self Appraisal Kit will do it for you - automatically.

• What is the price of Gold today?

  • Our On-Line database updates regularly with the latest prices so you don't have to worry. That's just another simple trick which takes pressure off you.
     

• What does a Jeweler Charge to make an item?

  • The Kit has this information built in and converts it into your currency. Besides, why should you care? You just need the final figure, you don't need to know any of these other details.
     

• Is an Antique item valued more than a New item?

  • With 30 years of experience in the Antique Jewelry Business, the Kit is programmed to know. You just want the answers - Not a Lesson in Antiquities.

In fact our 'Do-it-Yourself Jewelry Valuation Appraisal Kit' is so smart it can calculate hundreds of variables with accurate up-to-the-minute prices instantly without you even being aware of it. That's what a good appraisal system should do.

For example...

It will ask you if your item is made from Gold, Silver or Platinum and will adjust the prices accordingly. It will even calculate the difference between 'Rose' gold or Yellow gold, in any carat quality, with or without a Hallmark.

Phew!

And all you had to do was answer a simple drop down box question to select the right choice. Too Easy....

Still not sure...?

Still the skeptic eh? Well that's okay. I've been one for years.

Remember the Valuation Self Appraisal Kit was never intended for public use. It was designed for the Jewelry Trade (me in particular) to make life easier. It wanted a method I could use in our Jewelry Antiques website.

With this system (and we use it ourselves - everyday) we can complete complicated valuations, set prices, get descriptions and provide our loyal and happy clients with Certificates on each and every item we sell.

• It's that good...!

But then Patricia had an idea...

• Why not develop it one step further and let everyone use it!

As I have ALWAYS lived by the principle of "Happy Wife - Happy Life" so it comes as no big surprise that we began to evaluate this concept.

It wasn't easy but with the right questions, anyone - and I do mean anyone - could play the Appraisal game and become a winner.

• The task was to make it so easy my granddaughter could do it. (she's eight!)

With multiple choice questions and drop down boxes, lots of Help menus and illustrations (many from Victorian and Edwardian drawings and catalogues) we created the kit to step you through from one section to another seamlessly.

The Kit contains prompts and examples every step of the way (so you'll never get lost) and you'll certainly learn as you go. We kept the Jargon out as much as possible, but if we use terms you don't understand there's no need to worry because the ONLINE System has pages to explain them all. Worth the price on its own.

• Plus it has other Advantages....

  • No expensive Fees

  • PLUS it contains valuable Hints, Advice, Tips and a checklist

  • Packed with answers to your questions with information not available elsewhere within our websites

 ...which will save you both Time and Money.

How...?

Because our Self Appraisal Valuation Kit can be equal to the task for a fraction of the specialized service in a shorter timeframe, and costs much 'LESS'.  Lots Less....

• AND YOUR JEWELRY NEVER HAS TO LEAVE YOUR POSSESSION.

If you want to Start your Jewelry Valuation Appraisal Kit without finishing the most important letter you'll read today - Click the above link.

Look at these Advantages....

• A Secure system with a comfort level not provided elsewhere

  • No matter what - your details are safe and available. We keep your details in our secure server for seven years. If something happens to your jewelry during that time, it's reassuring to know your details are safely tucked away
     

• You are in total control as you never part with your Jewelry

  • Stays in your Jewelry Box or safe at Home or Work. No-one could ever swap a diamond or rip you off. Sleep soundly knowing that trouble-free fact.
     

• Do this in your own time, at your pace - no pressure.

  • No appointments - no deadlines - whenever you're ready - the Kit will be there for you. Access is fairly instant and you have 30 days to complete it. Should you have any problems, a qualified gemologist with over 30 years experience is just an email away. Priceless....

Can you afford NOT to do this?

•  Remember you could become a 'Victim of Loss' - What then?

You will have ample time to start your self evaluation, change your mind about something, go away for a couple of hours or days even, and when you return, start from where you left off, finally arriving at the bottom line to print your certificate right there on your own printer at Home or Work.

However, you will be expected to do some VERY basic measurements on the Jewelry you will be Valuing, but nothing complicated. A ruler, a scale if you have one, or maybe the receipt you received when you first bought your Jewelry or even an old Valuation Appraisal Certificate which shows the item in question. That's all you need.

• The Kit will do the rest - AT TODAY'S CURRENT PRICES...

After all: no-one else can see, feel, measure or touch your Jewelry.
You will be in Total control BUT with our Help.

We are personally just an email away should you need us. How good is that?

• But You Must Act Now - You need the Valuation Self Appraisal Kit.
   

Is your Valuation out of Date?

One final point but something I think is so relevant.

Don't be left with an Out-of-Date appraisal which values your possessions at Hundreds of dollars below replacement. Mistakes like this cause Tears and Heartaches every day and in every country. We have seen it all before, sadly too many times.

Without a current Valuation you will have no say in any replacement as nothing can take the place of your personal Jewelry.

• But you have to make sure your Valuation is NOT Out-of-Date.

Heck I don't mean you should pay for a fresh and updated valuation every year. What's the point if gold hasn't changed much, or there's no inflation and wages are just about the same this year as they were last year. Common sense is all you need so why pay again?

• Unless you valuation has had significant changes.

What Is The REAL Bottom Line And Why Should We Care? After All - It's Your Jewelry Right..?

It's all about 'Risk...'

To put things in perspective. Is becoming the 'Victim of Loss' worth just US$19.95.

That's not a Great risk, is it? Not securing your Jewelry is...

• In the Shopping Mall the other week. A Pizza and Coke cost more than that!

So what have you got to lose? (other than your Jewelry, I mean).

Loose change? A toll-way fee? Bus Fare? A Drink? Cinema tickets?

Please, do me a favor. If you still don't see the point, or US$19.95 seems to be too much, then God speed and I pray you'll never regret your decision to click away or Browse to a more graphical 'Flash' website.

It is my personal belief that you not only need to do this, (even if it's just for your more treasured jewelry) but you really have no choice.

• Insurance for your Jewelry is the lesser of two evils.

Damned if you do but damned if you don't. Without a Certificate you can't get insurance on individual or expensive quality items. You wouldn't want just $500 from the 'Household Insurance Cover' for an item worth thousands, would you?
 

BUT THAT COULD REALLY HAPPEN IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED!
 

• I hope you'll never need to get something replaced.

• I trust you'll know instinctively what something is worth.

• If you have the ability to browse through an eBay page and know what's a fair and accurate price, then you are a very lucky person indeed.

You're going to need that luck.

Otherwise I suggest you dust off your Baubles, Bangles and Beads and spend a little time with our Online Diamond Jewelry Self Valuation Kit - Jewelry Appraisals have never been easier.

• It could be the best US$19.95 you ever spend.
